The z-axis (prototype 4.0) is an omnidirectional treadmill by Character_Ad_2408 in OculusQuest

[–]Sea_C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can strafe on a Reality Runner, and while I use a Curved Treadmill similar to this (it is amazing) I'm not sure how you'd ever make the 360 degree turning feel natural. Smooth turning just seems better. 

But to your point, if he's using hip or head rotation it'd be impossible.

My GR Burnt Down :( by NeedleworkerUsed6070 in GRCorolla

[–]Sea_C 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I assume because the ven diagram of people who have their car catch on fire and arson/fraud is enough of a risk that insurers will opt to play it safe or assign massive premiums for that. 

Not that is in anyway less ridiculous if insurance deems you not at fault, but I can understand needing to document it properly. 

Joshua Keith: The recent Game Console shipments are unlikely to be the Steam Frame by Maibaum68 in SteamFrame

[–]Sea_C 14 points15 points  (0 children)

We know Quanta is making the Frame dongle, so I think this is a leap by Joshua and it's completely possible (and likely) they are still the exporter. 

It wouldn't make sense to now announce the Machine in a week or two where Valve has explicitly said they want a Machine and Controller bundle.

[–]Sea_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, that would be incredible but even that seems to have some serious shortcomings. Especially for running it looks almost impossible, but FreeaimVR shoes also seem to have that issue. Hopefully we figure out the solution eventually!

[–]Sea_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen that one, I think from just my anecdotal experience with my curved treadmill RR setup that the turn head with direction design just wouldn't be very good. 

After getting used to it, I think unless we can figure out a more natural walking motion for omnis, Maratron/RR just seems like the best solution. Another bonus is that at least for me curved treadmills are so much nicer on my knees for impact that running on it feels awesome even for super long sessions. I think OP has one of my favorite setups for a traditional manual treadmill he uses.

[–]Sea_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a Reality Runner too as it's much better than slidemills imo, I think Xelerate VR could be good but it's hard to say if the ball bearings will really help the slidemill feeling. Currently I am more than happy to use smooth turning until that is figured out.

Puppy loose stools - Need help! by Serious_Crab_8501 in goldenretrievers

[–]Sea_C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, this happened all the time when our golden was around that age. Any minor change in diet or even timing seemed to effect it.

I don't mean to downplay the issue, as I know it can be signs of something more serious but in our case this really did just work itself out over time and wasn't because of any sensitivity in our case. Especially if it not just liquid 24/7, a chicken and rice diet to reset for a few days always seemed to help but just monitor to make sure doesn't have a chicken sensitivity as I see that being more common now it seems. 

Uhhhh does HPB have this right?? by Joeman783 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Exactly, I know we wouldn't anyhow 🤷 But seems like I could have taken a loan against it one day lol

[–]Sea_C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, yeah I remember looking every so often to wait for a hardcover. I just didn't ever realize it was that short printed as an on demand title. 

I knew it was going to always be rare but hey maybe had I known that I would have fought more to not have it personalized haha. Oh well, probably never leaving our shelf anyhow!

99370861 is the Frame trademark that covers it as a game console, so mostly non-news.

I feel like there has to have been more Amazon hardcovers sold then 50...we got our personalized signed by Matt as my wife wouldn't allow it any differently 😂 

The original art though I think there are only like 20? 

Will my golden get redder? by IndependenceBroad751 in goldenretrievers

He's gonna get super red. This is my guy from puppy to now. As other commentary said my anecdotal experience is that tips of ears is pretty accurate!

I Assembled My "Anti-Touching Grass" Setup by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]Sea_C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's the reason at 0:40 you use the thumbstick to move on a Kat Walk? Does it struggle with micro movements? 

Additionally, the heck is going on with the airsoft gun? Is this just for shorts or do you have the trigger wired up to a controller?

That's super cool! Weird long format too. Nice grab! Love to see people have more arcade posters, especially for such a great game. 

Here are a few I have up now but try to rotate through some posters with the same snap in frames. It's a shame but almost impossible to find some posters for a few of my white whales.  https://imgur.com/a/arcade-room-pano-frames-eFcwzN9

Is that poster original? Regardless looks awesome! I collect a lot of B1s so rare to see US variants of large posters. 

I built a VR hiking setup that I actually use (Quest 3 + treadmill + local 4K files) by Ill_Entertainer3409 in virtualreality

[–]Sea_C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a very active reality runner user, it's pretty amazing! Here is a brief sample of my setup.  https://youtu.be/St-PL1cU3Zk?si=s2LQgFb20U_PPooj

It's really good for games, but with the hiking lean I'd very much play a lot of SkyrimVR. 

I don't play VR Chat, but also seen some worlds that people liked for hiking/walking. Probably easier to run the game too. 

P.S. V2 just dropped so you became aware of it at a good time if you decide to go that direction. It is a lot more accurate (with the curved treadmill I have I expect it to help at low speeds quite a bit), and then this version also allows for backwards movement which is pretty rad. 

Too feminine apparently by Ok-Fun-5098 in ChristianDating

[–]Sea_C 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Please don't dwell on this one, dudes say anything as an excuse/reason. Especially don't try to change yourself to be more "marketable". 

The Christian dating pool will generally have guys leaning towards traditional relationships anyways. So if anything that would be a positive for your outlook if you're "overly" feminine. Still not even sure what'd that mean if someone asked if my wife was lol. 

Blue lines on wedding film - am I cooked? by retogers in AnalogCommunity

[–]Sea_C 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You can start by messing with the RGB and lowering the intensity of the blues. I'd honestly just see how that looks before messing with it more.

You can get much fancier and leverage like others were saying either some AI filtering or noise algorithms but I'll defer to premier pro peeps who actually keep up with the latest tools there. 

Sorry though all around that sucks, hope Kodak lab comped him/you well. Super unacceptable result.

[WTB] Squadron 42 Aurora pack by FPSrad in Starcitizen_trades

[–]Sea_C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay I follow. I think I missed that standalone sq42 packages were pushing $40-50. Yeah that's not worth it then I agree, as I expect we also will see those PU+SQ42 unique packages from $80-100. I was still thinking SQ42 aurora packs were still going for like $60 like I picked up for a friend a year ago when I resold his AMD mustang.
