    Finally got a chance to try out Luke’s new Oculus system. Didn’t play a game or watch a movie, just messed around with Google Earth.

    That was totally cool. I can really see the value of this technology far beyond games and entertainment. I think I may have to get a system for myself.

      VR goggles make me dizzy.
      Besides, why give The Man total control over what you see? Aren’t nanobots in the vaccines enough?

        Love the new Oculus Rift-S!

        I am inside the cockpit of any airplane available in MS FlightSim and you totally get the sensation of flying. I am in the driver seat of any F1, GT, Nascar, Dirt Rally car. The latter gets a little wonky when you are climbing up a narrow mountain road covered in icy patches. The headset tends to get very warm, making me sweat which does not help with the woozy feeling you get when you slip on ice and feel like you are going to plummet off the edge of the mountain. lol

        Many sim racers/pilots, use ducted fans to keep air blowing on them to keep cool.

        Some really crazy people participate in multi-hour races that mirror the real life counterpart. Including the 24 hours races! WTF? Who could possibly sit inside a sim environment for that long? ugh, not this guy! lol
