DEs and websites suporting 3D/VR/AR

No.51098081 ViewReplyReportDelete
So 3D is a known technology at this point, there are a bunch of people with VR headsets, and AR is also coming with the Hobolens. How will these technologies impact desktop environments and websites? Are there any DEs and websites already supporting the future?

/tpg/ - ThinkPad General

Previous thread: >>51064134

Other business laptops are also welcome in /tpg/ (e.g. Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook).

If you're looking for purchase advice, READ THE BUYERS GUIDE FIRST. Then post, stating budget and requirements (e.g. size and performance).
Don't buy anything OTHER THAN T, X AND W SERIES if you want the Real ThinkPad Experience™

Why ThinkPad? (also applies to other business laptops)
>They’re really cheap when you buy a used one.
>Keyboards feel excellent while typing (yes, even the newer ones).
>Great durability thanks to the inclusion of rollcages and use of glass fiber reinforced plastic for the chassis. The keyboard is splash proof and spilled liquids will drain out.
>Utilitarian design - e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models.
>Docking solutions that easily turns your laptop into a desktop.
>Easy to repair, upgrade and maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for almost every model. Spare parts are easy and cheap to obtain.
>The best trackpoint (that red thing on the middle of the keyboard). Great for those who type a lot or hate swiping their fingers all over a touchpad.
>Excellent GNU/Linux & *BSD support.

vpn thread

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/10/24/nsa_encryption_hack/

Given that nsa has cracked vpn, is there a way to use something like gpg encryption when lets say I have a server in another country and I can physically go there and generate public and private keys, then go to another country and use vpn without sending any keys over the internet unencrypted? Just instantly send encrypted traffic?

Please I am total noob so go easy on me.

I want a smartphone with the following features:

Unlocked, works well on U.S. network bands not just Chinkbands(TM) only
5.0" or larger screen
Good battery (at least 4-5 hours screen on time, preferably longer)
At least 2GB RAM
Stock Android or close enough
Little to no bloat
6.0 support now or very soon
Planned supported updates for at least 2 years

All for under $400 USD?

Does such a magnificent beast exist? What's her name, /g/?

Hi /g/

Thinking about building a mini-ITX gaming rig.

Case will be Corsair Graphite 380T Mini-ITX (pic).

Parts I've picked so far:

SSDs and monitor I already have.

My plan fully switch over to Linux and run windows for gaming in a VM.

Any thoughts/suggestions is appreciated.
