Dark Table

Now that I’ve got a gig I probably won’t get back to this prototype for months/forever. Might as well show how far I got. The idea is “room vs. room mixed reality RTS-lite,” where you send units through the magic mirror to destroy their tower. It’s already fun watching the goons.

@thmsvdberg I hope you‘ve seen this. Gorgeous demo of Vermillion _MR_ on Quest 3 (on the other site): @donalleniii/post/CyWolZyySL6/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">threads.net/@donalleniii/p…

@amandawtwong “They’re fine.”

Okay, I am turning to the Internet. Are there any memorable two-image gags from the Simpsons where both scenes are visually strong? The only one I can think about is Worker and Parasite followed by Krusty's reaction.

@melissaCnavia I’ve been rewatching Strange New Worlds and I just wanted to say you’re fucking awesome. I love what you bring to the show. 🖖😁✌️

@pvncher I did it piecemeal. I bought a used Vive 1.0 kit off eBay w/ wands and 1.0 base stations and then bought Index Knuckles standalone. Also bought small rig clamps for mounting base stations, so I didn't have to screw holes in my walls.

So if I were curious about getting a bigscreen beyond and have no exposure to the lighthouse ecosystem - what's my best bet for getting started without breaking the bank? The Index kit is insanely expensive.

@merrittk You didn't mention that the computer becomes self-aware because he pours champagne into it.

Electric Dreams is a movie where a guy prompts his self-aware computer to write a love song for the girl he's interested in but the computer gets jealous, wants credit for its work, and falls in love with her too. It's from 1984

@LotteMakesStuff There are people like you that I don't want to stop following, but I don't want to be here anymore. Makes me very sad. 😭 Where else are you posting regularly?

People still on Twitter right now

@iBrews You can get the corners of the tracking space. Then place spatial anchors at those corners and see how far they move from reference position. I believe anchors and tracking space use similar tech under the hood for localization.

Trying to optimize a tracking space with light, contrast, size, etc for Quest Pro but as far as I can tell, Meta doesn’t provide any debug tools for checking “quality of tracking.” Anyone have any thoughts on, say, a simple Unity or Unreal project that would accomplish this?

Alright. See you in a while, maybe. #RateLimitedExceeded✌️

Honestly though, this is one of the best sequences in 30+ years of Simpsons. #RIPTwitter

Lovely summer day, the weekend before July 4th. I assume everyone in the U.S. is tweeting about baseball, trips to the lake, ice cream, barbecues, etc. #HaveAGreatSummer

You only get 600 posts to read and you just wasted one looking at this

@nessathewriter Friggin’ Battlestar Galactica ragtag fleet trying to regroup stuff going on today. Good luck and gods bless. 🫡

@wongmjane I just got a few new tweets after being rate limited. Still can’t see replies to your tweet though. WTF is going on? Feel like Elon’s description of the issue may be bullshit.

Twitter is working on an anti-addiction program for unverified users

The irony is I can refresh the trending topics list as much as I want, just can’t read any of them. General sentiment seems positive though… 😶

Social media companies already capitalizing on Elon stepping on a rake. I’m going to go play Ghost Trick.

Also, the irony that you can’t share tweets with people who aren’t on Twitter anymore, because he blocked that yesterday. This guy is good!

I’m guessing I hit this limit before 9AM today because the unwanted “Discover More” section in every reply thread counts against this limit. Also just scrolling past replies that you don’t read counts against this limit. This is 🟦Sky’s opportunity to offer refugee status to us.

Is this list curated by a vindictive Twitter employee, or purely algorithmic? Either way, hilarious.

I can’t look at the “Rate Limit Exceeded” trending topic because my rate limit has been exceeded. I also can’t send this tweet about exceeding the rate limit at the moment, because… y’know.

@bader_diedrich @LittleJimmy61 Dammit. I was hoping this was somewhere in Santa Monica/LA I could drive to. I can’t find anywhere that includes blood pudding in their Full English anymore.😞

@LittleJimmy61 I’m in London and really really full

This is the way
