Good for you! Seriously!
For the rest of us, a few notes on how you accomplished this would be sha-weet! I think sketch up is the most approachable 3d program, but all my "post Windows" attempts have resulted in crashes and freezes. 😥
Plus, the 17th Poland was "made room for" by removing New Zealand, a mapping error so common there's a dedicated sub for it.
Emoji passwords made me think of the Lotus Notes password prompt with their little images that changed as I typed (which never really made sense to me).
Yes, I'm old...
What on earth does this mean? I'm not a world-class expert in mathology but I've never seen this kind of relative comparison before.
More comedic than dramatic, and more "highly unlikely" than "dumb luck", but this one time I fell while skiing. It happens, I was a reckless kid as many are.
But this? This was on a flat, broad, almost level stretch connecting two pistes, and me and my dad were basically just cruising along. I don't know what, but something happened and I face planted, stopping instantly.
One ski out to the side, the other... vertical? Stuck into the piste at a right angle, all the way from the tip to the binding... without becoming detached from my boot. The mechanism worked fine, mind you, it just hadn't disengaged. There was no gash in the snow, no entry mark, just hard packed piste with half a ski sticking out of it like so much sword in a stone.
Not an alarm, but a timer app.

MultiTimer is brilliant for having a dashboard of purpose made timers that I use all the time (weekly baking, laundry, tea timer, etc) and ad hoc timers.
Michael Crichton's "Timeline" (1999) says hello.
Keep digging, you'll find eyeglasses and Jeep tracks, I'm sure.
You seem knowledgeable in this matter, so let me ask you: is this harmful to humans? What is the harm of this watermelon virus?
... Like what is not a very common skill? Touch typing in general? Or doing it under VR specifically?
- The latter would be quite niche I suppose.
- The former? I cry for the current and future generations. It really is not very hard to learn, realistic to master, and incredibly useful in daily (professional and personal) life.
Hey, that sounds very interesting. It's there anything not working as it should work that hw/sw combo?
Asking because I've never had the experience: how does one write anything while wearing a VR set? Please don't tell me it's one-finger "Fliegender Adler" on a giant floaty image of a keyboard?
This would utterly kill the comfort, convenience, and speed of touch typing, would it not? Ahh, progress... Even in Minority Report they had (friggin' sweet-looking!) keyboards alongside their fancy futuristic FAUI*.
^((* FAUI - flailing arms UI)^)
New fear worry unlocked....
Seems like this was done by working out passwords based on figuring out where people were looking and gesturing, rather than looking directly at the keyboard.
As a person using an uncommon keyboard layout, I reckon this would make it harder to hack my typing.
IF I could even get such a layout on wherever VR system I would theoretically be using... 😬
I understand what you say about needing to render every frame, but it's possible to use a very slow frame rate for the gif (eg. 1 frame every 2s).
This is likely a very niche request, but perhaps there's a genius here with the answer - or can point me to a better place to ask.
If I want it to look like a web page is loading an interlaced gif over an old modem connection, would there exist some tool to convert a given static image to an animated gif (preferably downsampled to 256 colours)?
You know, the one where it starts off as one giant coloured block which then gets progressively segmented into thinner lines with more detail as each interlaced line is received...
Are they evil attack squirrels of death? If so, one should be plenty.
I'm honestly pleasantly surprised to see that this project seems to be rather actively developed.
Which is completely separate from having a meaningful user base (near you), so 🤷
I'm with you, but see a million obstacles (aka. reasons for why things require payments).
You would need some form of moderation, to weed out illegal content as well as simply bots, spam, and dead profiles. Also for message content. I've given it some thought and suspect it can be crowd sourced to some degree, but also needs counter balances. Instead of limiting a profile to be live/banned, you could have a percentage score of peer-reported subjective legitimacy (ditto for message responses, heck you could even have a section of outright reviews of the person's behaviour - although that, again would be subject to abuse and moderation).
Hosting, traffic, etc. would be an unavoidable cost, but can be mitigated with low resolution photos (VGA should be "good enough" for an initial impression, no?)
For sure, an open source solution would offer way more fine grained filtering.
From my understanding, (a) the brain has no nerves, which is why you can talk to people while doing brain surgery on them; and (b) headache is caused by blood vessels constricting. Now, I am unsure whether migraines are also caused by blood vessels constricting, but in any case - what is it that is doing the sensing of this pain? Or is it a(nother) case of the brain just making shit up because it hates me?
