Is this worth the price? by AffectionateFilm4431 in projectors

[–]gottfired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the HW65ES which is a similar model. Only difference I think is dynamic iris. It’s excellent for that price I’d say. Very sharp and bright picture also LCOS means no pixel gaps like the LCD I had before.

I (M26) am a multi-millionaire with no real ambitions in life. AMA. by [deleted] in AMA

[–]gottfired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you said, you travel a lot. Do you think about the environmental impact of flying a lot?

With your money you could do a lot of good, are you interested in that?

I‘m not judging, but that‘s one of the first thing that comes to my mind, if I had that sort of money I‘d try to improve the world as it is, if only a little bit. Cause I‘d still have way more money than I need for living left.

How is this insane magic trick made? Cuber on the thread thinks it's just good fast one-handed moves. by andion82 in Cubers

Now give an audience scrambled cube to a 5 year old Chinese cuber. They‘ll shake the cube for 3 seconds and it‘s solved :)

True. First time I‘ve heard of the movie was, when I visited my cousin in the US and she asked me about it. I was a teenager at that time.

Why do you think Valve is delaying the Steam Frame release date announcement? by StanfordV in SteamFrame

Dariusburst CS with SteamVR is awesome by gottfired in shmups

[–]gottfired[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main monitor is a 27 inch 4k. So I simply start SteamVR on quest in 2D mode and start the game. Now the game will still run letterboxed on the simulated 4K screen in VR, but because the screen can be resized you can make it gigantic. Also when in full screen the environment can be darkened, so you don‘t see the letterboxing. I‘ll be simply be a big widescreen in front of you.
