I heard that GNU Hurd does not suck. Except, wait, it does because it's a pain in the ass to actually use. But in theory it does not suck, unlike all the operating systems that suck in practice and theory.

hurd is crap and microkernels suck in practice

 

[bluehazed]

use TempleOS

Oreos and Milk. I've gone too long without this simple pleasure.

Do you guys have Bourbons? They're a British staple, dirt cheap (20p for an Oreo sized pack), and are pretty much like an Oreo but with chocolate cream. I think that's why Oreos have never really caught on here, we have these, Custard Creams, and other biscuits.

 

[coyotecraft]

I don't think so. At least, not in my parts.

The Alabama snow is here. Everyone panic.

Boss is lending me his DK2 so I can start our VR research more formally. I went through a ton of games seeing their VR experiences.

I wouldn't say a single one of them was perfect. The Oculus' sit-down desk demo is the best demo right now.

Elite Dangerous would have been #1 definitely, but it suffers from really bad judder (it seems to be locked to 60 FPS despite detecting the Rift's 75Hz display, I think my primary monitor is confusing it).

It felt like I was actually sitting in a spaceship at times.

Team Fortress 2 was the most surprisingly playable game, I did TF2 before in the DK1 and weirdly I remember it feeling better in the DK1 (Higher FOV than DK2).

Ran piss-poor on my current machine. When the VR beast machine is assembled I'm sure it would be awesome :D

I don't think so. At least, not in my pants.

Well then.

Damn. I wish the bourbons were in Coyotes pants

Difficult week. Blegh.

 

[Ellie]

I need to make supervisor. I could easily save £800 a month from that.

 

[bluehazed]

My week has been easy in case you were wondering because life is easy because I am wonderful.

My weeks been tough as fuck. Cousin was in a car accident with her 12 y/o daughter. It seem feb is the month my famiy try to die in car crashes. All is okay though. There'll be a lot of lasting damage, but they're alive.

My boss (from childrens services) is hella supportive and she's been through similare (and worse) stuff so she's done a lot to make me feel better.

I feel you Potion. One of my closest friends was in an accident a couple days ago as well -- some old dude ran a red light and slammed right into the driver's side door. All's well though. Maybe a broken thumb at worst.

 

[Ellie]

:sad:

Lurking...

Love...

Busy busy!

Picked up a laptop. I think I really like it. It's one of those flippy things, but its a 15.6 asus i7 4gb vram nvidia 860, 8 GB Ram (I'll probably upgrade it soon enough), and a 1TB hdd.

it's making me smile a lot.

Also, i'm losing control of my life to ff14arr. Triple Traid is too much fun. Ninja. Evil Injury on the Jenova server, if anyone ever plays.

Just did an hour of team fortress 2 in virtual reality.

Damn.
