  • New cars are kinda shitty. They collect a ton of data, don’t let you actually drive, have a million unecessary features built in to try to reduce the stupidity of drivers who should be nowhere near a motor vehicle and are super ugly to boot.

    I do know a lot of people who tow, but I’m in motor racing circles where people are regularly hauling race cars through multiple states every week.

  • Unfortunately that isn’t really the reality. Apps like Vero have plenty of creators, but no regular users. And since there’s no regular users, it never grows beyond a network of creators trying to make it big.

    Critical mass is almost impossible to overcome for a new platform. Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter all still have exponentially more users than any of their supposed alternatives, and no matter how they treat their users the vast majority of them have no problems staying.

  • The average user does not want to see that and does not need to see that. That’s how you end up with thousands of support requests of “why is my computer showing these errors?”

    Things should be abstracted from the users by default. There’s no need for grandma to see a console output every time windows needs to update.

  • As someone who does a significant amount of Motorsport photography, albeit at a smaller scale, this is a risk we’re all aware of. I don’t think any of us would trade it for the world either. Sometimes to get the shot, you’ve gotta put yourself in a bit of danger. Everyone did everything right here, Motorsport is just dangerous.

  • On a flat screen it’s entirely different since you’re only getting a single perspective instead of two different views. It’s one of the reasons VR can be really great in racing games such as iRacing.

    I also turn off the halo when I’m playing on my triples. It’s only when I’m in VR that I’ll leave it on.

  • Just like your nose, stereoscopic (I think that’s the right word) vision will blur out things right in the middle of your view. It’s actually not very distracting at all and you tend to not notice it at all when driving (at least in VR in racing sims).

    You also find yourself looking straight down the middle so infrequently that putting the supports to the side would actually block more of the view.
