Fishing by explosive is a great way to kill everything in a lake. You throw a few sticks of dynamite in, the concussion kills everything within a few hundred metres, the fish float to the surface and you scoop them up.

It's illegal in almost every nation on Earth.

It's also an excellent way to destroy ecosystems. But China doesn't care much about that.

Some people who are able to use that device will look at it and say " hey I can use that "

Then realize that they are able to build the device and more than likely come to the conclusion that " hey I can afford that device" and boom goes the dynamite ! ! ! SOLD.

There are over six billion people on the planet, a lot of them wipe their asses with hundreds during the day.

Think you used enough dynamite there Butch?

omfg the headphones just came on my scalp and my ear canals are enveloped within the confines of foam ovals. VOLUME MAXXXXXED OOOT. Transducers convert electrical signals into audible sensory perceptions.

BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE

I imagine it would go something like this, with Obama playing the role of Kip.

Does anyone believe for a second this could land a punch if his life depended on it... without having to pay someone to do it for him at least.

Napoleon Dynamite has put on some muscle...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

The girl from Napoleon Dynamite mixed with a bit of Kathy Bates.

Oh shit, I forgot about the cyberpuck, which sounds like a robotic Shakespeare character. <- boom goes the dynamite.
And the whole 1280 x 800 smacks of bs to me in the same way Forte's claims of 512x460 did: adding together the per-eye resolution. Granted, they seem to be upfront about the vertical resolution of 800 (which isn't great for 2012 either) but that horizontal res? Boolshit! It might be 1280 for an iguana with eyes on either side of it's head, looking at different shit per eyeball all its life. But for we humans, each eyeball pretty much looks at the same thing, not accounting for parallax of course. So I'd say the actual horizontal resolution might approach 800, depending on how much they want each eye to "share" as it were. So it's essentially a giant square.

Naysaying/partypooping aside, it still looks promising. There's nothing quite like moving your head around to observe a virtual world: it affords the kind of immersion you can't touch with a standard monitor setup, I don't care how big it is. <- that's what she never says. Boom again!

Back in '96, I bought a Forte VFX-1 which was a VR headset with stereoscopic vision, very comfy over-the-ear headphones, and motion tracking. All for about $1000.
Each eyeball had it's own little LCD screen (263x230) and I can tell you that it looked like pure ass. Despite it's shortcomings, I played the original System Shock with it and I still have very fond memories of skulking through Citadel station with that thing strapped to my melon.
While I'm not interested in contributing to a kickstarter campaign (after all, that's why we have venture capitalists), I may be interested in a finished retail product.

Ha! I, too, bought a VFX-1 headset. (Had to buy a separate Number Nine S3 Virge card as well so the interface cable would work). I never did play SS1 on it, but I did roll through Quake 1 and all of it's mission packs, as well as used it for Looking Glass' Flight Unlimited. I never used the Cyberpuck controller, as it wasn't very intuitive to me. Once GLQuake came out (which had to run at nothing less than 512x384) that was the final nail in the coffin. But fun times while it lasted.

Yeah that's a whole lot of win.

Side note: Best prank I've ever seen was a Jackass bit where one of the idiots dresses as a terrorist, complete with dynamite belt under white robes, and gets in a cab headed for the airport. His idea is to freak out the cabbie. But the cabbie is in on it, and the double-cross ends with the terrorist in the trunk being shot at.

Studio Anchor: "What's the scene down there, Napoleon?"

Napoleon Dynamite: "I just got pantsed by a FRIGGIN IDIOT! GOD!"

BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!


Good friend of mine was roommates with the "boom goes the dynamite kid" when it happened while I attended Ball State. Makes me grin every time someone mentions it (except the retard they got for my commencement speech who was obviously reaching for things to say).

BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!

this version is great.
