I know that; I've played FPSes with that control layout for thousands of hours. I said "while controlling your vehicle with both hands" which means, for example, with a steering wheel, a throttle+joystick, or a keyboard+mouse with the mouse controlling something besides camera angle.
The big advantage over a monitor is immersion. When I tried out an oculus rift I felt like I was inside the virtual space in a way that I've never felt while playing FPSes on a monitor. That's not a small thing.
Another advantage is that it increases how many input axes you have. Think of games where you're flying a spaceship or driving a car and you can freely look in all directions while controlling your vehicle with both hands. That's impossible on a standard monitor.
How about we meet by the board games in the science fiction section? That's in the gold room. If I remember right it's near the asterisk on this map: http://www.powells.com/pdf/burnside_map_2011.pdf
I am 6'3", I will wear a black T-shirt with a realistic-looking lightning bolt on the front, and I will have a backpack with a helmet hanging from it.
I am interested in this.
"187" is a slang term for murder, which comes from the California penal code. Is this a coincidence?
I slapped together some C++ in under ten minutes, with an eye towards making it run fast. This runs a billion iterations in slightly under one minute on my machine.
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
long long threshhold = 4 * (RAND_MAX / 9);
int main() {
srand((unsigned)time(0));
long long utility = 0;
long long iterations = 1000000000;
for(long long i = 0; i < iterations; ++i) {
if(rand() < threshhold)
continue;
else if(rand() < threshhold) {

I've been under the impression through the whole story that Harry's father's rock is the philosopher's stone. Is Quirrel just referring to Harry here?
The Harry we know wasn't "born to the name now used", or really born at all, because his current self comes from a merger of the original Harry and Voldemort.
Harry is the repository of much lore about science.
Harry has taught Dumbledore many "... (read more)
