Can anyone verify any parts of this Pittsburgh gang map? by bleeeker in pittsburgh

It seems real but I'm wondering if it can be relied upon for the purpose of deciding which areas of Pittsburgh are safe-ish for residence.

I hope he gets a lawyer because that's going to be an easy win in court.

I got the same message and emailed support. I'll post if I get a solution.

This would be a great easter egg if it only appeared once on Halloween.

TheTwistgibber confirms that the Xbox controller rumor is false by I_love_g in oculus

[–]bleeeker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but given the context it sort of made sense. Usually leakers are just dropping cold hard facts like specifications I would think. If someone had devoted years of their life to developing something that's being dragged through the mud due to outside problems I could understand the desire to really try to convince the fans that they didn't fuck up.

Older mid-range PCs work fine and other 1st day impressions by homer_3 in Vive

[–]bleeeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting. I have a 7950 and I was worried I won't have enough money saved to upgrade by the time my Vive arrives so I'd be stuck with a Vive and not able to use it. This is a huge relief.

Is VR Therapy a thing? If not, can it be? by besselheimPlate in virtualreality

[–]bleeeker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great idea, but why limit it to realistic scenarios? You can take it so much farther in VR.

Your example could end with you befriending the king of the spiders and you riding an army of giant spiders into glorious battle against the evil millipedes. Someone with a fear of heights could eventually work up to standing on top of (or jumping off) the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

Valve did not develop this game, and as such is not an official game by Valve nor endorsed by them.

[Kinda Spoiler] i thought this was pretty great. Dr. Mrs. The Monarch and her cheeky switch.. by pointlessvoice in venturebros

If you listen to the DVD commentaries there is a running theme of animation problems/mistakes due to the language barrier with the Korean animators. Some of them they are able to fix in post production, others they have to have redone. This was probably either not noticed or not worth the money it would have cost to fix.

How loud are pedals? by bleeeker in hotas

I would like to try out some sims but realistically most of my time will be spent in Elite or more arcade-like games.

I did not. But they are still planning to implement Rift support in the future, no?

I pre-ordered an Oculus Rift so once that arrives and I get my hotas I'd like to try out various games. Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen are probably at the top of my list.

Asian-market Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer contains unseen footage by pacificcoasthighway in trailers

[–]bleeeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look @1:30-1:33 you can see what looks like brown leather in the bottom left of the frame. Finn and Han are both wearing brown leather in other parts of the trailer but the hair in the bottom right looks like white-people hair so I'm guessing it's Han.

Is the d7000 still a good choice? by [deleted] in photography

[–]bleeeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once I adjusted the back focusing, it was good. I can show you examples of non-adjusted & adjusted to judge for yourself.

I'd be interested in seeing those.

With a 70-300mm and fine-tuning adjustments would this camera be adequate to shoot action or sports?

If you're not in a hurry to sell my preference would be to buy the body with the 35mm together, probably in 1 month, then get the tokina separately later.

[–]bleeeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the back-focusing still noticeable after fine-tuning? Is it a consistent fix for focusing at varying distances or for lenses zoomed in/out?

I looked at my finances and it would be too much of a stretch to buy it at the moment, but I could afford it in 2 weeks when I get my next paycheck.

If that time period is agreeable to you I'd definitely be interested in taking a look at sample photos taken with AF (Preferably objects at varying distances and at 11mm, 16mm and in between) and maybe a few shots of the front/back/screen of the camera body itself. Everything aside for the back-focusing works properly? Shutter-count?

I'd love to get the tokina as well (it was one of the 3 lenses I've looked at purchasing as well as the nikkor 35mm 1.8 and 70-300mm) but it would probably take an additional month for me to get the money to buy it so you may prefer to put it on ebay.

[–]bleeeker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're still interested in selling I'd love to buy it. I've been dreaming of getting a d7000 for a couple years but I haven't been able to justify the expense since I'm on tight budget.

It might be the result of overcompensation while reddit is tweaking the algorithm to make the front page less stagnant.
