[QUOTE=Leestons;48031805]If I suffer from Amblyopia would I be able to use VR headsets and the like? My brain suppresses signals from my left eye so I don't pick up any details and don't really use it.[/QUOTE] I'm not a doctor or anything, but I would imagine so. I mean, there's still a difference in immersion between the real world and playing a video game on a screen for you, right? Only way to know is if you try, of course. Note that googling amblyopia vr brings up a company trying to treat the disease with a VR application.

I fail to see how VR would give any large improvement.

My brain suppresses signals from my left eye so I don't pick up any details and don't really use it.[/QUOTE] I'm the same, I only see from one eye at a time, and you know what? I get instant presence in the DK2. It doesn't limit you. Plus there's a lot more to HMDs than just having the screen in front of you + optics, actually being able to move your head is a bigger deal than it seems.
I prefer edit.com myself.
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;48031981]Nano + Sublime Text are my goto editors. Nano is more than enough for dicking around with config files. [editline]23rd June 2015[/editline] [t]http://i.cubeupload.com/nOGrqO.png[/t] Perfect.[/QUOTE] I love my sublime theme. [t]http://i.imgur.com/hHZi2ZS.png[/t]
[t]http://i.imgur.com/WvMmKcv.png[/t] I'm okay with this.
I get the same out of the box :^)
I prefer VIM. Especially since my boss said if he catches me using nano he'll punch me in the face.
[QUOTE=kaukassus;48032036]I get the same out of the box :^)[/QUOTE] But can you turn it off? :^)
[QUOTE=LimEJET;48032158]But can you turn it off? :^)[/QUOTE] Yes. One of the good thing is that shit is pretty much modular and you can turn of almost everything, since anything other than the actual core is a package. You can see how resource intensive packages are, even standard ones and then disable the ones you don't want or need. That's pretty nice if you ask me. I feel like I sound like a shill. ohgod.

We got tasked with doing a minor feature on an open source project for a uni course, and we decided to do the least amount of work possible by just getting the editor to display "Atom" in its titlebar instead of just the open filename (that's right, I did that). When doing research on the project we tried to find a reason for them using Coffeescript instead of just normal JS. In fact, there are several issues about this, stating that they're shutting out a lot of professional JS developers in favour of language-hoppers for whom coffeescript is just the soup of the day. The answers from the developer community gave no clear reasons at all, just snark along the lines of "if you don't like it don't use it". They won't accept any JS into their repo, which is weird since it all needs to be compiled to JS before it can run anyway.

I woke up with weird redeye-like symptoms that go away within a day "my eye hurts like I was punched in my sleep" "MUST BE THAT COMPUTER YOU SPEND SO MUCH TIME ON" Yes it must've gotten mad I haven't replaced the PSU, gained sentience and locomotion, and punched me while I was sleeping
[QUOTE=Ezhik;48031537]Which is just vim for babies.[/QUOTE] Which is just Emacs for the unfaithful. [editline]M-x edit-post[/editline] Nah, just messing with ya'll. The Evil minor mode's a strict essential in any Emacs installation and anyone who thinks C-f/C-b/C-n/C-p is good for naviagtion is a straight up loony.
The only time you will ever catch me using vi or emacs is if someone makes a durable keyboard overlay ala WordPerfect style. [img]http://gordogato.com/oscommerce/catalog/images/zm_wordperfect5_keyboard_overlay_2.JPG[/img]
The top card is a horizontally bound with different layouts listed on each card.
[QUOTE=wingless;48030331]Hi. I just got out of hospital. AMA.[/QUOTE] You forgot to write ".. but I won't answer any of your questions" in fine print :v:
You either get no information, or too much information. Which do you prefer? :v:
[QUOTE=kaukassus;48034546]You either get no information, or too much information. Which do you prefer? :v:[/QUOTE] The too much would be the one I'd pick in this case.
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;48034041]Yeah, but its Atom. Le Webkit + Javascript wrapper is suitable as a native program meme.[/QUOTE] That's my main problem. I usually really dislike these kind of programs, but Atom has been working really well for me and actually did serve as a good replacement for Sublime Text for me. I don't know if I should hate me for that. With that being said, if Neovim ever gets to a stable state, I'll probably use that.
I can't use not vim because I just wind up with :w all over the place I do recognize the brick wall of a learning curve though, so no shame on you guys
Today I learned part of my job includes freeclimbing towers.
While you guys are still talking about Vim, just gave it a spin primarily being an nvi (ye olde vi) user and visual mode makes it really tempting to jump on the bandwagon.

Otherwise, once you have h, j, k, l, i, d, and x down, vi becomes a piece of cake.:wq
And here I am clueless to what you guys are talking about writing all my code in NP++.
[QUOTE=Levelog;48034989]Today I learned part of my job includes freeclimbing towers.[/QUOTE] are you an assassin
[QUOTE=LimEJET;48035501]are you an assassin[/QUOTE] I wish.
Am I right in saying blower-style coolers are better for ITX cases?

Yeah, I'd do blower for ITX [editline]23rd June 2015[/editline] Not much else though
