Yeah, sounds about right. Ergonomics and poor displays have been the two biggest problems with the Oculus from day 1. Early models also had really poor refresh rates and response times, greatly increasing the disorientation and motion sickness that people felt. They’ve improved the ergonomics tremendously and the…

Depending on which dev kit you used, the problem may have been due to the Oculus’ use of PenTile displays. PenTile uses a smaller sub-pixel for the color green, causing a very noticeable “screen door effect” and a significant loss of sharpness and color reproduction at certain resolutions and distances. This was a big…

This picture oh my god I can’t breathe

Next thing you know, the article will be the ad!

As always, ideas are free. The idea of something might sound great, but it means nothing at all without the execution to match. Lucas had a lot of bad ideas in the prequel trilogy, but none of them couldn’t have been salvaged by better writing, characterization, dialog, acting, and directing. If the execution of…

Paladin Danse is the worst for that shit. Half the time he’s like “Good. Never leave anything behind.” and the other half he says “You’re going to slow us down if you keep picking up that stuff.” Make up your mind!

One of the best things about New Vegas was the extremely satisfying Yes Man path, where you got to basically tell all the other factions they were full of shit and seize control of the wasteland for your own purposes. The closest thing to that kind of freedom in Fallout 4 was the Minutemen path, but that had many of…

PCs don’t cost anywhere near that much. You can put together something basic that will get the job done for $500. $1000 will get you a high-end setup that can play pretty much anything with aplomb. I have a PS4 right now, but only because I wanted simplicity and the ability to play The Last of Us.

Are you me? I’m from north Texas, which is basically a wealthy white conservative utopia. My home town has consistently been ranked one of the top 5 wealthiest midsized cities in the country. I’m a white milennial (and thankful for it, don’t get me wrong), but my single-parent household was never well-off. At this…

I don’t know, that’s kind of a hard question. The sort of thing that would require much thought and academic inquiry were we to consider it. You know what’s not hard? Changing the name of a popular football team so it’s not an offensive racial slur. Doing that would literally be the minimum effort we could possibly…

“I mean, geez, it’s not like anyone gave a shit about the genocide of the Native Americans while it was happening. Why should we care now?” -you

I was reading some of his comments in another thread, and yeah, this guy has some Ken M-level shit going on.

I made Elder Scrolls and Fallout mods back in the day. It always cracks me up how little the Creation Kit engine has really changed at its core. The graphics and capabilities have improved immensely, but many of the same bizarre behaviors and seams have been with us since Morrowind. I don’t mind too much, though. I…

But she literally said she wonders if she would have been less successful as a skinny person... so I’m really not sure what you mean

The truly fucked-up part is that even at companies which offer paid leave, many people do not take very much of it to avoid being perceived as “lazy” or “not a team player”, and thus being passed over for promotions and raises. My company offers a month of paid leave for dads, but one of my coworkers who’s having a…

So you’re saying that to fix New York’s affordable housing problems, the first step should be to eliminate literally the only mechanism by which any affordable housing exists in the city at all?

I quit smoking weed two years ago for this exact reason. When I was a teenager I could use it without issue, which I attribute to its early euphoric effects and the fact that my GAD hadn’t fully manifested at the time. These days, though? Literally one puff sends me into a death spiral of negativity, fear, and…

I’m experiencing this weird glitch where I got all the women in my vault pregnant at once, but after an entire day and night none of them will give birth.

The graphics in Bethesda games have never been cutting-edge. It’s become pretty clear that there are limitations to Creation Kit which make it hard for them to put out something with truly groundbreaking visuals. This game looks like an incremental improvement on Skyrim. But you know what? That’s fine. Creation Kit is…

The idea is that the slide serves as an introduction to and summary of what you're going to actually say. You should never find yourself just reading your presentation off of PowerPoint.
