I spent over an hour in VR with the Vive for my first time and I experienced simulation sickness. A half hour after taking the headset off I got sick and threw up. It takes awhile to get adjusted to the real world after you disconnect...
- Were you "walking"? Do VR stuff where you're sitting in a virtual seat and you won't get sick.nb
- was doing this for an hour and it effed me up but was first time https://virtualart.c…whatthefunk
- Most VR instructions say to never use more than 5 mins at a time.Hayoth
- you get used to it, I blew chunks playing the new halflife after only 3 hours, now i can be in VR for 6-8, me and my daughters been playing a lotmoldero

Mom & Pop clients that think because they can't open an EPS file on their screen that the file must be of no use... whom then proceed to forward me a 72dpi JPG in it's place so I can rush their print ad.
- I thought about posting this in the 'punches for' thread but the company owner is pushing 80.PonyBoy
- you can still punch an 80 year old. actually, its probably easier than a younger dudesausages
- haha!PonyBoy
- Client - we need an eps file.
Here you go.
Client - what's this? I can't open it.
It's an eps.
Can you re-send it. It's broken.Fax_Benson - *embeds jpg in Word to email it*i_monk

The cards with the chip in it take seconds longer to process than its predecessor swip cards.
The new automated bus doors take longer to open than when you can open them yourself.

every time i sneeze someone says, "bless you" in some kind of arcane superstitious practice. i then feel obligated to say "thank you", despite not wanting to have anything to do with it.
if i don't, i then feel like an asshole, like i'm ignoring them by refusing to play along.
if i do say thanks, i feel like a tool parroting back a response to something i don't even care about or believe in.
no matter what i do, this whole stupid internal argument takes place in my head where i'm forced to decide which i want to be, asshole or tool.
worse still, i always sneeze in threes, and they say "bless you" after every single one. at least let me finish!
- I hear ya. Worse is "god bless you"monospaced
- bless you! Gazunteit!capn_ron
- actually it’s proper etiquette NOT to comment on bodily utterances. Sneezing included.pressplay
- like you wouldn’t say anything if someone farts (in a formal social context)pressplay
- i'm with you dudescarabin
- Wow. So sorry you have to participate in human culture and do something we've been doing for close to a 1000 years. Are you out anything?hellrod
- just because it's been done for a long time doesn't mean it's remotely appropriatemonospaced
- It's not inappropriate and it's just being kind to each other. Celebrate a small ritual that transcends yourself and time.hellrod

I found a really good mugshot reference website, designed for bailbondsmen, but some states and counties have very poor photographic quality so it's not much help for drawing portraits.
Charleston County Jail and Polk County Jail have had the best photography quality so far.

I've had little or no work to do for months yet they still pay me to show up and fill this desk space.
- lucky SOBCanHasQBN
- it's actually torturous to be this bored all day. minutes seems like hours.fooler
- maybe start a personal side project?scarabin
- yeah create something for fun. or get addicted to an online game.CanHasQBN

i have around 300 burned netflix dvds in my "unwatched" pile but i'm so ADHD lately i can't commit to watching an entire movie
so it's just episodes of he-man and star trek for me
- i usually listen to movies then rewind it or switch over to watch what sounds as if it may be good.albums
- It's funny how many movies we REWATCH when there are so many new ones to watch.mg33
- not a bad idea albumsscarabin
- i feel like a hoarder, just habitually copying these things to watch later and never actually doing itscarabin
- I do the exact same thing. I've got a 750GB NetFlix rip drive, about 2/3 full, most of which "I'll watch later".elahon
- im like that with video games.. whether it be apps, roms or the actual discs. i never keep up.mantrakid
- I watch them once, then if they're good, rip to mp3 and listen at work.aaux
- You pick up so many little things when you're just listening to itaaux

just got back from surfing, its so god damn hot it felt like paddling in a Jacuzzi.
Now I want to play VR, but if my hair is wet while playing the vr goggles fog up.
So now i have to wait like an hour because I have long hair.
- don't tie it back and go for a walk outside, occasionally billowing your locks in whatever wind is mustered, like some advert for hair conditionerNairn
- its hot and humid as fuck outside then ill have to take a shower again because of sweat.moldero
- hair dryer on cold, mines at the point if i dont dry it it's always a bit wet. the ginola effect only works until its past your shoulders then it's like havingkingsteven

I find Spotify's suggestion algorithm pretty dumb. I listened 2 songs of Tinariwen (north african, touareg band) my whole Discover weekly list got filled by African Music.
I marked each one as not liked, next week, still a bunch of African groups show up.
I want you to read my mind and my emotions Spotify. It shouldn't be that easy to label me as "afro music lover"- It fucking sucks, it's been trying to pawn shitty french music since I joined... I've NEVER listened to anything in french, ever. And it still can't figure outzarkonite
- I like DJs. It's always trying to pitch some random artists in my suggestions. I guess it must be good if you're into top 40?zarkonite
- Tinariwen is good. Spotify is right.BK
- think you misread that BK, spotify suggestions suck balls. Wish you could turn that feature off.kingsteven

I bought the wrong kind of bananas. I like those small, organic ones, which I think taste better, but I bought huge, unripe regular bananas.
I ate one and it was so big it made me nauseous.Discuss
- were you looking anyone in the eye while you ate it?Gnash
- I eat bananas in the bathroom in privatedrgs
- I can easily eat 3+ of those large banana's. You're banana's if you get nauseous after 1...shapesalad
- did you chew it or just ram it straight down your throat. that can trigger your gag reflex if you're only used to the small onessarahfailin
- small organic ones only!Krassy
- as it should be, drgs, as it should be.Gnash

is it okay to put my image scanner on top o my refrigerator?
I mean, it has a board in between and there's no heat generated from the refrigerator affecting the scanner.
logistically it's also the best place so I really would like to know but I didn't find any info online.
I confess that I feel a bit stupid.
- it's not energy efficient for a fridge which requires air on all sides for efficiency. also opening and closing door during a scan could cause small glitches.omg
- put the fridge on the scanner. scan it. sell fridge. profit.shapesalad
- better to use an open frame spacer that allows air flow, and not touch fridge during scanning process.omg
- +1 shapesalad!oey
- i will never open the fridge while scanning that you guys can be sure.oey
- the refrigerator needs refrigeration that's what you guys mean right? the scanner doesn't get cold neither the fridge warm. i'll improve it. thanks!oey
- I don't mind. Go for it.Fax_Benson
- Thanks for your permission Faxoey
