The whole VR thing is very 'First Gen' atm. It's all new and who knows what will be the 'thing' in a year from now ........

I'm waiting for 'gen 3/4' for a great replacement for Track IR for Rise of Flight/IL2 (latest) flight sim's, and a decent VR for racing games.

The current bitch-fest is just so funny, I must be getting old and past it ...... Smile

Re above, Notice the bike being held up by the knee. (GP3, and elbow)

And the tyre contact point being maintained for grip. Go too far over and visit Mr Airfence.

Smile

Then there is the power slide out of a turn with the front in the air.

Probably the closest thread.

There's a bit of a melt down on reddit atm regarding Occ Rift, Palmer Luckey, shipping dates, cost, etc

All fun and games..........

"Good grief, does nobody hire PR reps or get media coaching anymore? You pay the nice PR person, they stop your communications with customers from turning into a dumpster fire."
and
"I think he's kind of hilarious. He seems totally unprofessional, but sometimes it's kind of refreshing to see someone talking shit to some of the entitled consumers out there. I think it's a horrible decision of someone in his position, but it makes for good drama. It's like when GabeN comes down from the heavens to talk some shit to people. People are so emotionally invested in these products and have such high levels of entitlement, so it makes a good shitstorm when a CEO comes down and says "Shut up fanboy.""

The above is probably a major part of it.

"It turns out that when you install the software to run Facebook’s Oculus Rift it creates a process with full system permissions called “OVRServer_x64.exe.” This process is always on, and regularly sends updates back to Facebook’s servers.

The process’ main purpose is to help detect when the Rift is turned on and on your face so that it can launch Oculus Home, but the further reaching implications of it are potentially much more salacious.

Digging into the Oculus Rift’s Privacy Policy that users agree to when checking “Agree” on the Terms and Conditions there are a couple of interesting bits that may prove to be concerning (if not completely expected).

A section of the privacy policy outlines “information automatically collected about you when you use our services” including when, where, and how you interact with content on the platform even going as far as tracking your movements in virtual space."

"Virtual reality offers an unparalleled level of access to data for advertisers. Before metrics were measured in how long someone watched a video or how many times a link was clicked, but with VR you can get far more granular. An ad executive at Coke, for instance, could tell just how long you stared at the Coke bottle cleverly placed inside your favorite game as an in-game ad and use that data to better place it in the game for you next time."

Ripley's Believe It or Not moment. Today's (24/4/2016) NZ Media (copied from Aus media).

Clearly we are all complete idiots and we must believe this message, but if you can read between the lines and want a laugh, read the following 'news story'.

"The "best chance" of preventing the 9/11 terror attacks was directly under US intelligence authorities' noses, but they had no idea just how close they came, a chilling report revealed.

In fact, two of the hijackers were even sharing a house with an FBI informant."

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=11627648

Last line, if you got that far. ""The asset indicated through his attorney that if subpoenaed by the committee, he would not testify without a grant of immunity," a footnote in the OIG report read. In July 2003, Mr Shaikh was given a $100,000 payment and closed as an asset."



Back in reality, http://www.todayscatholicworld.com/mossad-agents-911.htm ...........

It was later confirmed that the five detained Israelis were in fact Mossad agents. (Forward Magazine). They were held in custody for 71 days before being quietly released. Some of the movers had been kept in solitary confinement for 40 days.

[S]everal of the detainees discussed their experience in America on an Israeli talk show after their return home.
Said one of the men, denying that they were laughing or happy on the morning of Sept. 11, "The fact of the matter is we are coming from a country that experiences terror daily. Our purpose was to document the event."

FYI, the above link is all documented historical fact. Smile

Here is their interview on Israeli TV. "Our purpose was to document the event" ??????????????????????

Verify that the nsf file is present in the path specified. The TSV file row for that particular user can be edited to enter the correct path to the mail file, and then attempt the migration again. In most cases, the mailserver name is incorrect, and changing this value to reflect the correct mailserver that contains the NSF file should resolve the issue.

Or try the Help Desk.

Your wrong there sorry, Al Quaeda use Toyota Hilux's,
provided by America,
(In April the US State Department resumed sending non-lethal aid to Syrian rebels recently and the delivery included 43 Toyota trucks.)
but to disguise the issue, in America, to quote wikipedia, 'Most countries used the Hilux name for the entire life of the series but in North America, the Hilux name was retired in 1976 in favor of Truck, Pickup Truck, or Compact Truck.'

So, terrorists use US provided Hilux's but the Hilux is not a Pickup, it's a Ute. Unless your in America, when it's a Truck, Pickup Truck or Compact Truck.

Therefore, provided you are not a US based ISIS/Al Queda/CIA terrorist you actually use a US provided Ute, not a Pickup. This is to stop the media thinking the US govt is providing pickups to ISIS, as they are clearly not.

I hope this cleared that up for everyone..........

2016 - The year Americans finally work out their elections are rigged.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvfkBHGY854&ab_channel=TRUTHstreammedia

Complete MSM Blackout as Americans Protest Their Fake Presidential Election Process
Exactly how many times and in how many different ways do American voters on both sides of the aisle have to be told their votes don’t matter for them to actually realize it? This many. People are starting to realize it. That’s why the media had to blackout a mass protest at the capitol where hundreds of people were arrested for peacefully protesting our rigged elections... without a permit.

The illegal scene is huge in that area. Top Gears trip to Albania got into trouble suggesting that stolen cars seemed to turn up there.

The facts are clearly, absolutely, completely different.....Rofl

"A Macedonian government minister has been told she may be driving around in a car stolen from former England captain David Beckham.
Police suspect interior minister Gordana Jankulovska’s BMW X5 may have once belonged to Beckham before being stolen from the mean streets of Madrid last year.
Macedonian police impounded the car after it was imported from Greece and, under state law, it became the property of the Former Yugoslav Republic after officials ruled it had been imported illegally."

"The well-dressed man being driven in a luxury Mercedes certainly didn't raise suspicion on December 20 when he reached the northern Greek border station of Christalopigi.

After all, he was the Public Order Minister of neighboring Albania, Spartak Poci, making an official visit to Greece to meet his counterpart here, Michalis Chrysohoidis.

Greek custom authorities, however, dutifully inspected the minister's car.

As private Greek television station Mega TV reported Sunday, the authorities discovered that Poci's car was stolen property and the vehicle was immediately confiscated."

What hope does LFS have to not be pirated ??

And I'm somewhere on the spectrum, not that it bothers me, only others (lol) and my partner is working with the autism group in Hobbiton.

And FYI, females are being diagnosed.

Personally it is all very vague and in my opinion, too imprecise to really place great credence in a diagnosis. I hate being labelled and everyone is different, and so there is a wide range of difference.

My concern is specifically regarding the MMR vacine and it's scientificly proven effects on some individuals.

This is based on the evidence provided by the CDC, GlaxoSmithCline, Vaxxed etc. This is poisoning and killing children and it is being covered up by the very groups who have proven it is happening.

"De Niro also discussed the media blackout regarding the CDC whistleblower. “Everybody doesn’t seem to want to hear much about it. And you guys are the ones who should do the investigation,” De Niro challenged. Regarding another film about autism that is showing at Tribeca, De Niro said “it’s not questioning how some people got autism, how the vaccines are dangerous for certain people who are more susceptible. Nobody seems to want to address that, or they say it’s a closed issue but it doesn’t seem to be. There is more to this than meets the eye, believe me.”

When asked if he believes that science has shown there is no link between vaccines and autism, De Niro replied, “I believe it’s much more complicated than that. There is a link and they are saying there isn’t. The obvious one is thimerosal, a mercury based preservative. Let’s just find out the truth.” De Niro also questioned statistics that claim that parents who do not vaccinate their children will lead to a higher incidence of measles and other illnesses.

Despite the often repeated claim that VAXXED is anti-vaccination, Philippe Diaz, head of Cinema Libre, the distributor of VAXXED, says the film is not anti-vaccine but rather pro-safe vaccines. “It is not an anti-vaccination movie, people are judging the movie without seeing it first. Even Robert De Niro said the film was not anti-vaccination,” Diaz said. Indeed, De Niro has stressed that he is also not anti-vaccine and only interested in the truth. “There is something there, there is something there that people are not addressing. All I want is for people to see the film and people can make up their own judgement.”

Race Servers are the Tooth Fairy.....

"Liane: Oh. Eric, poopie, sit down. Mommy has something to tell you. It's just that...well... There is no tooth fairy, Eric. I've been putting all that money under your pillow, and because you had so many teeth fall out, I've actually run out of money and can't go to the grocery store for at least a month.
Cartman: You almost had me for a second there, Mom, heh. "There's no tooth fairy." I suppose you're gonna tell me there's no Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, or Jesus, either, heh-heh. M-Mom?
Liane: I'm sorry, Eric. All children find out sooner or later.
Cartman: Y-you're serious here. There really is no tooth fairy?
Liane: No, honey. It's just--
Cartman: How could--? How could you lie to me, Mother? Lie right to my face?
Liane: Oh, Eric, it's just part of being a child.
Cartman: How can I trust you? How can I trust anyone ever again, Mother? I guess, uh to make it through this life, I can only trust myself."

Or, read this thread and work out time zones.

Review of HTC Vive compared with Occ Rift using LFS as the gaming software, very ugly but accurate from what I'm reading ....

I hope you haven't actually paid for either of these 1 gen devices ...., Still, LFS gets a great review for providing support for 1st gen hardware.

Well done Scrawen. I can hardly wait for VR Gen 3, which will start to work properly IMHO. Smile

Apparently AC even beats RSRBR, Can't you see the Ice, Snow, gravel build up in the vid ?
The road surface is clearly down to the dirt base after being swept and then painted black with ripple strips to make rallying easier........
(Love AC, but it's a track game)

Does anyone else feel the 1.1 update did something to the graphics ? It seems to be a different light thing. It's hard to explain but if you fly from the UK to NZ, you notice the difference, and the game seems the same.
