Do it right how exactly? Oculus doesn't manufacture the hardware in question. Oculus is very much at the mercy of the smartphone display market. The only thing Oculus/Carmack can do is convince Samsung, and unless the change can i

The reason you don't see realistic models very often is because objects we use as for reference (planets) are too tiny compared to the space between them. Earth would be nothing more than a speck of dust in a football sized model. That

I'm one of the authors of the Prosody XMPP server, and a member of the XMPP software foundation. Prosody operators have been reporting this for more than a week now. Google users have apparently been flooded with subscription requests from

Nice! To be fair to the Flash version, it appears to be using the 2D drawing API (equivalent to HTML5 canvas). If the Flash version used Stage3D, performance would probably be equivalent to WebGL for this demo, since most of the work would

Well, since we are nitpicking nitpicks, allow me to nitpick your nitpick of a nitpick: Lua closures are also composite data structures. You can get/set their upvalues via the debug API. Behold: function create() local a,b,c,d,e,f,g,

The code provided isn't storing any internal state (aside from the resume location) as far as I can see. The generator thus generated isn't reentrant and has other flaws, but those pale to nothing when you consider that nothing on the stack
