on HN thread Show HN: First person 3D environment using CSS 3D Transforms for rendering
So close! Enticing checkerboard pattern and some unshaded wood texturing then a hard crash for Firefox Android 68.5.0. Evokes the early 90s which reminds me that anyone who hasn't seen the "Community" episode with the VR parody must watch it immediately: [this video] (this seems to be a super-cut which will annoy the writers, bit still)
@CarbyAu Sep 2020 Makes a joke
on HN thread Intel Launches 11th Gen Core Tiger Lake
No I had not! It seems like what I was thinking. Take the same idea and put it into Unreal Engine. Add further OS interactions like files, maybe a floating virtual window for web browsing etc. The UX has to be done very well though otherwise you are a prediction by TV show Community: [this video]
@SketchySeaBeast Oct 2020 Makes a joke
on HN thread Kube Doom, Kill Kubernetes Pods Using Id's Doom
That's really all I ask. I doubt very much that any movement in virtual space is going to be as efficient as a keyboard and mouse, so just let me see everything and call it a day. Relevant community commentary on the potential ridiculousness of VR interfaces: [this video]
@sebzim4500 Jun 2023 Makes a joke
on HN thread Notes on Vision Pro
>- Something whimsical to inspire developers. Give me files represented as physical blocks that I can pile, or a task manager that shows processes as plants around me. Close apps by scrunching their screen like paper. A globe with my geotagged pictures. I respect Apple for not doing this. These are demos that are kind of fun for 20 minutes but you would never want to actually use a device like this: [this video]
@BlueTemplar Jan 2025 Makes a joke
on HN thread Microsoft Bob: Microsoft's biggest flop of the 1990s
Oh wow, I just realized that the following VR parody might have been inspired by Microsoft Bob : [this video] (2015, so 4 years before Zuckerberg committed to the Metaverse enough to rename the whole company, and still 1 year before the first commercial new generation VR headset : Oculus Rift released.)
