Thoughts Before Bed

I watch a lot of stuff. Anime, cartoons, 80s Sitcoms, Canadian stuff, movies....

But I don't binge watch them. I tend to watch one episode per night per show. Like right now, my evenings consist of an episode of Briscoe County Jr., Being Erica and Corner Gas. On Fridays I watch Doctor Who, Saturdays are cartoons and Sci Fi, Sunday are anime, movies and British Comedies....

It's how I watched TV as a kid, except I'm the programmer now. Lissa has dubbed this "Boomervision" which I take exception to as I'm squarely Generation X.

I'll binge watch something if it grabs my attention, but otherwise it's TGI Fridays every day for me...

Is it a costume when it's what you wear all the time in-world?

One of the surprising apps in VR that I'm enjoying is watching movies. Despite that the entire VR experience is 2K at best, blowing the movie up to movie theater sizes really works in VR.

3D works really well, too. 3D has historically not been how I like movies, but that's because the effect doens't work well for me. In VR, though, it's fantastic.

And now I not only really have a Home Theater, I have a full on Movie Theater in my goggles!

Playing around with Emu VR. Got the Atari 2600 working in-world! Still having some problems with controls in both programs, but I think it's because I don't have any X-Input controllers. I have an X-Input emulator somewhere....
