I am never sick when doing roller coasters or reading in a moving car, but I was really nauseous after my first 15-min VR session. I was pretty scared I fucked up buying a Valve Index only to get that much sick playing… But I had a feeling (hope?) that I could get used to it: After about 2 weeks of playing a bit every night I was no longer getting sick at all. I can go until the controllers run out of battery now.

To me the effort was worth it, but I have a friend that was the opposite and didn’t enjoy experiencing virtual worlds that way…

My advice: If you ever try it then try to ignore the sickness -as you can get used to it- and focus on how much you enjoy being immersed in virtual worlds.

102 is “hundred-two” so it’s only weird for 70 “sixty-ten”, 80 “four-twenty” and 90 “four-twenty-ten”…

But the way I learned it each was like it’s own word, even if it’s not. Just don’t think about it too much!

If not immune then what, how do you explain someone that never bought something he saw in one of the countless ads thrown at him?

How do you buy it, lemon juice? How do you use it, pour over the clothes?

The watch is monitoring data that just isn’t enough to accurately tell if someone is actually sleeping. So it’s a best effort and sometimes it will be wrong because it noticed a sign that usually correlates with sleep except this time it’s not.

As long as people spend money on it the cycle will continue. Publishers seem to have found the quality threshold people are still willing to pay for. It makes me mad but I can’t control what other people do with their money…

Technically speaking it would pick up the men in metal armors, not the wooden horse per se.

But the barrier would lift for the wooden horse full of men in armor indeed.

The burnout aspect comes in the form of wanting to eject yourself when trying to do anything creative. It’s a difficult place to be in. Trying to force through just adds more strain and honestly doesn’t make anything better. Finding the causes for the burnout and addressing them is more effective from my experience.
