This is the irony why this won't work. VR is exclusively a middle and upper class thing, if you're in the poor class you don't have the money for VR let alone a lot of things. It's easy to pretend you're poor when you can flip on your expensive middle class gadget for ten minutes, go "Oh shit, I'm poor! This sucks." and drive off in your brand new overpriced car to your oversized house.
Actually being poor is figuring out if you have enough money for rent/mortgage, food and bills and finding out what to do if you don't and it's not something you can try and emulate for ten minutes.
If you can't even get an accurate portrayal of being poor to the upper class, how can you expect them to even figure out the absolute shitshow that is homelessness?

Alright /leftypol/
I've been around lefties most of my uni days (because I was young and stupid), frequenting them is what made me a nazi. I've never seen a poor one. Never, I was always the poorest with actual second hand clothes and my first mobile and first shitty car payed for with my hard working summer/winter vacation job.
It's same medium/upper class as /v/, instead of shitposting from mom's basement they go on a trip to plan the "revolution" and "be different" which is 70% partying, 28% fucking around, 2% maybe speaking about "people" stuff.
Not ONE of those lefties isn't taking daddy and mommy's money, typically that and when they get older, whatever gibs they can claim (mostly by lying, since money you get from your parents is income, even if not taxed, and gibs are largely income based).
Else they'd be getting a real job pretty quick and stop being lefties.
That's the difference and why chans people hate them so much, people on the boards that do live like that joke about it and are perfectly self-aware of their situation.

I hear Elite Dangerous is good. Haven't tried it out yet, but I'm gonna see if I can later tonight or tomorrow night. Rogue Squadron looks pretty good in Dolphin VR, if you don't mind all the geometry culling, but I haven't tried that for myself either because Dolphin VR is a bitch to setup.
All in all, I'd personally say it's been getting better, albeit gradual.

national socialists weren't conservative, the conservatives cooperated with the marxists to fight against the NSDAP. for example, when the bavarian people's party (marxist) wanted to ban hitler from giving speeches in bavaria, the german national people's party (conservative) supported them in this banning of hitler.
the horst-wessel lied contains explicit rejections of conservatism.
if you had read mein kampf before speaking about hitler you would have known this already. why so many socalled 'natsocs' refuse to read mein kampf and go around spouting false ideas given to them by the jew, such as "natsoc is conservative/capitalist/reactionary" etc is mind-boggling. and the amount of retards believing that "socialism = marxism because the jews told me so" even when hitler and goebbels specifically refuted this on countless occasions is equally mind-boggling.

They believe that being in proximity to important places in the world where many things are happening will give their lives meaning. This is untrue, but it's a desperate hope they have.
I don't condemn them for it, because it's an easy trap for hopeless people to fall into. I pity them. Non-heavy industry (eg, production of consumer goods that used to be previously made by craftsmen, such as shoes, cutlery, furniture, clothing - as opposed to heavy industry such as construction vehicles, freight rail, production of machines used in other factories, power tools, etc, which don't replace a craftsman's job but could be used by craftsmen) has destroyed much of the craftsman's trades that used to give a man's life meaning. Now they have no meaning, because working in a factory that makes plastic spoons doesn't give meaning, neither does manning the counter at McDonalds, and neither does a white collar office job where you fill in some spreadsheets and write some emails and spend most of your day killing time.
In past days these people would have been content with their trades as cobblers and tailors and bakers, taking pride in their work and knowing their legacy was secure as they passed the trade on to their sons. But they can't complete with factories. The only trades that still can are the tough, difficult ones (physically or mentally) that involve construction or direct service. Carpentry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, telecom, etc.
Your average liberal is neither strong enough to lay bricks nor smart enough to trace a ground fault, but in pre-industrial days he would certainly have been competent enough to inherit his father's small family business and live his life as the town potter or tailor. There was a simple pride and satisfaction in that, which can't be matched working in the giant assembly-line factories that drove those humble trades out of business.
Bereft of meaning and fulfillment in their job or career, they hope that just living in a city will give their life some meaning or relevance by proximity. That they'll matter just for having been there.

Leisure is the new trade
Now that people don't need to spend their every waking hour supplying their locale with shoes and similar consumer goods, people's lives are defined by what they do in their free time more than what they do for a living.
Just look at the top boards here on 8chan; they're not based on things people do to gain income, but on things people do because they are fun things to do, such as

HVAC, because you can't automate a job that requires human adaptability. You can mechanize it, but that just means giving the HVAC tech better tools to use in the course of his work. EG a sawzall instead of a hacksaw.
You'll see AI lawyers long before you see HVAC or similar jobs get automated.

And most of the people who have nothing in their lives but leisure activities are severely depressed, like mice in Calhoun's utopia. When you don't do anything important or meaningful in your life and just work a shitty job or are NEET, and you spend your free time just consuming media made by other people (and let's face it, the vast majority of people consume media, they don't create it, and this will always be the case no matter how much marxists like you insist otherwise), you'll naturally feel like the useless shit that you are.

Wrong, if you sold plastic spoons for 30 years, you cannot sell desks because you have no idea of the social workings of the table market. So they employ you at the lowest level possible.
And if that shit dosn't work they come with bullshit like your too old or overqualified to send you back to square one.
>If you're an HVAC technician, what happens when HVAC techs are no longer needed?
You are still needing guy that can repair whatever technology replaced the HVAC Technician.
The reason robots will never replace humans is that in the end of the day they are just as breakable as humans and for every thing that gets automated or mechanized you need a mechanic/technician to built it and keep it going.
Worse not only that, most machines are defenseless when compared to humans, so you need humans to protect them from nature/animals/other humans.
The Matrix could never work as the machines that build it would slowly die to dust, insects, rodents and the constant wear and tear of the elements.

I almost think the anon is confusing sales reps with trades in that you can be a sales rep for a company making spoons and transfer your skills to selling desks instead. Even in manufacturing the amount of automation is still dependent on product and it's more of the manufacturing process involved which is still varied.
Even with full automation, you still need engineers to design a product and method, drafters to put it all together in a nice report, technicians to check and test the products to make sure said product is tight, technicians for the automated machines and lastly assemblers on the ground for making things machinery simply cannot make or when a machine goes bad. That also doesn't count the fact you still have to then worry about automating each component and material of each part for each assembly and then the giant clusterfuck that is transportation logistics and try and somehow automate that as well.
I mean engineers could in theory design everything to be automated, but actual assembly robots are too far expensive to replace linemen with for most applications for the time being and then require a highly specialized technician to service the robots in assembly which costs big bucks, and unless you somehow get AI to be able to replace inspectors and testers you'll still need them around as well. Unless there is a way to somehow automate building and maintaining assembly robots on their own without any external input, you still need human workers. This is kind of reminding me of some of the manufacturing contracts I observed this past year for spaceship parts.

Homeless congregate in big cities because there's more of a chance of a shelter so they can survive the winter months. Also there's a wider pool of potential suckers they can beg to.
The real solution to homelessness is to build giant complexes that function as both hospitals and apartments so they're off the street and have a chance to get their shit unfucked.
We can go back and forth on whose responsibility it is but if you want them off the street, put them somewhere better. Even homeless animals get to go to a shelter.

Alright, just did the few couple tutorials for Elite Dangerous. Game was a bitch to setup; kicked me out to the desktop until I had an account registered.
Judging by what I saw in the cockpit, I'm guessing it's supposed to be played with a joystick. Feels awkward using the mouse and keyboard to turn - just don't have enough precision.
Other than that, it's pretty interesting, but it looks like it's best played without VR, if only because of the controls. A little disappointed because the view from the cockpit is pretty good otherwise.

Is there an explanation for configuring a PSVR into a Vive using TrinusVR? I had TrinusVR a while back for my phone and it didn't work so well with trying to pretend it's a Vive. In fact the only reason I didn't buy a PSVR is because of the compatibility issues.

HVAC or some advanced future version of an HVAC tech will always be needed unless 100% of people are living inside of F U T U R E 3D printed prefab homes and even then what happens when they have HVAC related issues when the houses get old? assuming this isin't some post-scarcity space-engineers shit where they can just zap a new heating and air system in and even then someone who designs the prefabs will have to know how the fuck HVAC works in the least.

Anon, don't pretend you don't know the answer to this. The answer to this is already obvious in literally every current trend in technology. What happens is it gets destroyed and you buy a new one. This the future, whether you like it (you shouldn't) or not. It started with smart phones. Small, integrated, disposable devices. They are made specifically to be thrown away and replaced when something goes wrong, not repaired. Of course, people found work arounds to repair their smart phones, but the companies sure as hell continue to try their best at preventing you from being able to repair things. It has since moved to laptops, where you now have laptops where the CPU, RAM, and even SSD are all soldered into the board. You even need a fucking knife and a heat gun to literally cut apart the case to get inside a Microsoft Surface laptop. They are slowly trying to turn even desktop computers into the same thing. It's not just computers and phones, either. Same shit has been happening with cars for decades now. They started by just having some pieces of plastic on top of the engine, and now there are plenty of cars where you can't see anything except plastic when you open the hood. Cars are starting to get all these bullshit electronics integrated in them that are also made to be expensive to repair.
The future is having everything be disposable, contained objects that you are not allowed to tinker with or modify in any way.

HVAC and similar jobs need not be phased out. What will happen, is that as more and more jobs in other sectors start getting automated, you'll have massive waves of unemployment by people who are unemployable - all of which who still want to work, will be vying for the same diminishing pool of jobs that humans are still required to do. Extra competition in the workforce is going to lead to lowered wages - and the increasing march of technology means that the skills needed to actually do the job will be diminished as the tools get more efficient and smarter.
Imagine when any schlub with a smart phone assistant and a pair of AR goggles can follow basic instructions and do what would otherwise take years of training for a certified technician to do now.

That's just planning to kill someone with specific intent or action. If you're specifically thinking of per-meditated murder, then maybe the person specifically made plans to avoid being caught. Either way, that person is not going to be thinking by general moral terms or societal contracts at that point.
In addition, first degree murder is far less common then second degree murder, and nothing in this system takes into account when Tommy gets so angry in a domestic dispute he grabs a knife and stabs his wife to death.

Almost nobody owns that shit except limp-wristed rich california hipsters. That's why everything produced for VR is some artsy-fartsy shit, or teleport-to-move garbage.
Two games are worth playing in VR, (but not worth the price of VR): alien isolation and subnautica. Flawed games themselves, but they're the best examples to date of how to integrate VR into vidya.
Devs need to realize that building games for VR is retarded. It's like building a game for a specific brand of headphones - that shit is a peripheral. Build a decent game first and then slap VR into it afterwards for the best results.
Maybe when/if a significant number of people own HMDs, capitalism will start to shape the market and push the useless devs out. Because nice things can happen, right?

GT was so dark and brown that it's a wonder I've ever been able to get through the first few episodes without feeling depressed and turning it off. It also follows terrible characters like Trunks and Pantsu, and has the most idiotic villains I've ever laid eyes on. Super 17, really? Someone named fucking BABY of all things? Oh no EVIL WISHING DRAGON (but it's just shenron the shittiest of the eternal dragons so Porunga could just snap his shit in half but nevermind.)
Super is really really very not good, but it's watchable and it still manages to be fun at times. I put it in the category of DBZA - it's a stupid guilty pleasure. Its writing has more in common with DB than DBZ, focusing on being a parody of action anime first and foremost, and I'm convinced that the entire show was created specifically to troll DBZ fans. Those little midget Zen King dudes are the embodiment of the fanbase - mewling fickle adult children who just want to watch things explode. I kind of love it.
Also, exactly like DBZ before it, the best episodes of DBS are the filler episodes. The characters fucking around and being silly on their days off has always produced the highest quality episodes across the franchise.

Everytime I suggest that, VR-fags give me a look like I just farted. They sit there and bitch and moan and lament about how VR isn't catching on in the wider market - but the moment anybody suggests that maybe developers should just make games that people want to play and integrate VR into that - rather than focus on these niche artsy VR "experiences" - you're just painting a target on your back.
Maybe I'm crazy, but I think most people are interested in VR because they just want to be more immersed into the kinds of games they already love - not being flooded with experimental shovelware which requires a full room-scale setup and tons of expensive equipment trying to replicate actually being in the game when the technology for full-sensory immersion just isn't there and won't be there for generations to come. VR is only now just BARELY becoming basement level functional.. and even then, not really affordable. If you want people to jump on the VR bandwagon and invest the money needed to kickstart the industry - then you have to give them software that's actually worth using. Nobody's saying they can't have their faggoty artsy experimental titles with expensive addons - but that shit doesn't excite the average consumer, it looks boring as fuck from the outside - regardless of how fun it may or may not be when you're in VR. It looks like quirky demos to everyone else. And the vast majority of the software is just quirky artsy demo shit that barely lasts two hours, which is why most people hang their VR helmets up and forget about them beyond porn after a few sessions. Nobody wants the inconveniences of dealing with VR for garbage demos.
That… and most people will experience VR sickness of some sort. Something like 15% never have a problem. 70% will have a few initial problems - but will find their VR legs and never have a problem after that. Maybe 15% will get VR Sick and will always get VR sick unless you add in a bunch of hacks like snap-turning, FOV limiting, etc. Yet these faggots are so scared of making a bad first impression on that 70% who will get used to it - that they hamstring game design and, again, just end up making a bland boring game/sandbox that's only good for few "huh, that's pretty cool" moments which will never impress again.
Video related. A full "game" that's not really a game, but a singular experience you will never return to ever again once you finish it, that lasts a whole of 40 fucking minutes. Literally all it is just standing around while cartoon characters yell "Fuck you, get the fuck out of here" at you repeatedly for just over half an hour.
Games? No. This is the kind of garbage that VR fags want more of.

VRfag here. You're only half-right.
Games that aren't built for VR have a shitload of issues. Just look at all the Fallout 4 bugs. You really do need to build from the ground up for a VR experience to make a good VR game.
You're dead right though about how most of it is shitty demos. Devs aren't failing to put good gameplay in because they're building for VR, though. They're neglecting gameplay because they're bad at making games. It's all terrible Unity shit churned out by (((indie))) studios. There are some notable exceptions like Onward, and they're really well received because they put simple but well-executed gameplay in. What would be a very standard tactical FPS becomes an entirely different experience in VR - having to actually throw grenades by hand, grabbing a radio to communicate to teammates that aren't nearby, physical gestures for operating a firearm instead of pointing and clicking and pressing R to reload. The devs pretty much told people with severe VR sickness to fuck off, that it isn't the game for them (but were fairly clever about implementing movement regardless, to minimize sickness).
There are cases where games that were already good had VR tacked on and came out beautifully. House of the Dying Sun is a good example. But cockpit games are already prime VR material because of the fixed viewpoint. Going beyond spaceships, mechs, tanks, and cars is a lot more difficult, and that's where you should be building for VR first.
That garbage isn't what VRfags want, save the indie cucks. I want exactly what >>14252249 wants. And the key is that you don't *have* to make a game particularly unique for it to be outstanding - like I said, Onward is generic and would have been a failure if it wasn't for VR. Give me a solid, generic fantasy RPG where I can actually wave my sword around, trace runes in the air to cast spells, open doors by hand, jiggle picks in a lock to open it, smash the chest with my hammer when I break my lockpicks, chop up a couple goblins, then take a healing potion from my belt and bring it to my face to drink it. It'd be completely generic if it wasn't VR, but inside of VR it'd be amazing. Basic functions become wonderfully deep. Just look at the combat in webm related, remove some of the goofiness, and then imagine a full-featured game instead of a shitty demo that has you standing around in an arena. Toss in a small open-world map with a dozen dungeons and a little town hub, and it'd be a must-play.
Even from a business perspective there's tons of potential - you could release a $3 alchemy expansion/DLC/whatever where you can collect herbs and toss them into a pot to make potions, then scoop the liquid into vials. It'd be ultimate jewery to charge for potion-making in a normal game, but perfectly acceptable in VR because it's an entirely new mechanic you get to fuck around with.
Make the thing multiplayer and you've got the dream game of every neckbeard who watched Log Horizon/Overlord/SAO/whatever flavor of the month MMO anime.
We'd be seeing games like that already if not for the fact that the vast majority of VR devs are indie soyboys with no vision or talent.

It's sad that this is the only good use we have for VR. Modded GameCube games. Although it looks fun as fuck.

I work at a cell phone company, When older folks ask me why someone would pay 800 bucks for a smartphone I tell them that it's akin to owning a BMW in the 80's
It's all about style. nothing more

Nigger, I have been homeless. Why would I want to pay money to experience it again?

Maybe so you can do some of the things in-game you didn't dare to do IRL as homeless, like killing cops for lulz?

Both of you hit the nail on the head. As it stands VR will be a niche peripheral until prices come to the point where there's used headsets on the market compatible with steamVR along with new ones around the 150-300 dollar range. I say this as the owner of a vive.
Games you should check out if you make a ghetto set or if you purchase one are. Robo-Recall, Onward, Pavlov, Superhot, Audiosheild and ProjectCars2 but make sure you pirate all there dlc jewry to get the cars you want

I still don't see the appeal of VR games, they're basically all shitty wii games with the added benefit of giving some people migraines

Maybe I'm very conservative, but I prefer my games safely on a screen in front of me, not all around me.
Anyone got a vid yet of what it looks like?

And that's exactly the issue! Devs need to get on top of it and start making games with actual, fun gameplay. Like I said, it doesn't even need to be complex - even a simple RPG or FPS turns into something completely different, as long as you don't completely botch it with bullshit like teleportation hacked in for the sake of 10% of the userbase.
It's not an issue inherent to VR, not in the least. It's an issue with the people making VR titles.

Webm related, also check the webm I posted above. The sense of presence works really well, it's just that you need something to do besides stare at the scenery.

I'm completely not adverse to just sitting on my ass with a controller and just using the HMD for aiming and having a greater sense of presence in the game environment. I'm not trying to create a "holodeck" experience - because it's not fucking possible at this point, and just trying to get 10% there is going to break your finances. And you'll STILL be completely taken out of the experience once you run into a software or peripheral limitation where 1:1 translation of player input doesn't match what's happening in-game. And I can only speculate, but it wouldn't surprise me if it's even more immersion breaking when you run into those limitations with the more impressive and expensive multi-peripheral setups because you're setting your expectations and feedback even higher. Like an uncanny valley phenomena.
I just went the cheap nigger route and got a PSVR for $200 over the holidays. Wasn't prepared to drop any more on it, and what few shit I've played that requires the fag waggle rave sticks I've been able to do so by borrowing a friend's old PS3 move controllers. I think I made the right decision passing on them, since everything that requires the Move controllers has been indie "VR Experiences". Anything actually approaching decent either already has basic tracking via the DS4 or a traditional control scheme on a controller.
As usual, the only "VR Experiences" that are any fucking good are JP exclusive which you can only get from the JP store. Even then, they're shit, but at least they've got cute girls in them.
>He bought a PS4
Bloodborne, Kat box, Yakuza. I regret nothing. Though I did just get the cheap PS Slim because I already have a decent PC, so that makes my VR experience on the thing pretty horrible. Well, a bit more horrible. I hear the PS4Pro doesn't really help matters much since it's still a glorified potato. Keep meaning to hook up the PSVR to the PC, but honestly I can't really be bothered.

VR is only good for playing games that are already good. That is what VR was going to be before Valve ruined it with wagglen. Playing Vampire The Masquerade with VR is great.

Sure if you're not a melee class. I imagine third person would fuck you up pretty good.
