Such a shame VR ended up conflated with all the metaverse crypto rubbish.

Lookit. Deep down every Irish person wants to spin some yank a yarn that gets cited as fact in some factual text. We told an Irish American girl that when the Muppets was released in Ireland, Kermit the Frog was called Dermot the Frog because Cromwell’s son was a Kermit.

Sad. The first PSVR was great - the perfect way to bring VR to a mass market - but they seemed to just give up on the second before they even started.

1/x Two of the best-known coats on any high street began as working kit for sailors on cold decks. Both carry names from my little corner of the North Sea: Duffel, a small town near Antwerp, and the Dutch word "pij". The story of the duffel coat and the peacoat. #maritimehistory

Nice! I need to go digging and see if I still have any of mine lurking around. I used to write them offline in notepad or whatever so they might still be lurking somewhere.

The roleplaying group I was part of was awesome, organising raids, social events, etc. I won the guild's talent competition by demonstrating my ability to extinguish someone who was on fire and then reviving them, live on stage.

My character was a doctor from a wealthy Coruscant family who had ended up on Tattooine practicing frontier medicine, much to the horror of said relatives.

One of my fondest memories of playing early MMOs was receiving a 'fascinating background' badge in Star Wars Galaxies from an anonymous mod.

I spent hours writing and tweaking mine. To be fair, I'd had plenty of practice writing hero bios from playing the DC Heroes TTRPG with @andysdrawings.co.uk and co back in school!

I mean it was obviously bait but I would have been disappointed in myself if I hadn't taken it.

Can particles move faster than light? Have a look at the video to learn more about Cherenkov radiation – the discovery that received the 1958 physics prize. This was a key component in the experiments made by today's physics laureate Francis Halzen in his research on neutrinos.

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

I can't really complain - I have a(second hand Quest 2 and G29 so I can clamp it to my ikea desk and live out my racing driver dreams. Not ideal, but not too shabby at all.

Definitely in the mainstream/casual games, yes. There's also a sort of parallel VR market in the simulator world for driving sims and the like where it's all bleeding edge and runs like shit unless you have dual 5090s...

Tough choice. I definitely prefer the blue colour-wise but I like the style of the purple one. 🤔 I guess I'll just have to try them all.

If I was starting from scratch I'd probably avoid Citadel on cost and convenience grounds. They're great quality but the flip-top bottles and price means I would definitely consider the competitors.
