      For essentially going to the other side of the world there'd better be more than 1 beer!

            @JaredBusch So this was the first e-reader?

            An early Amazon Kindle (before the kindle obviously)

            Pretty cool, I wonder if you could still get media.

            RCA had an e-reader out in the early 2000's. I bought my wife one. they were super heavy though... she didn't like it.

            I have my old Nook too, that was pre-Kindle I think as well.

            @DustinB3403 This was the first commercial E Ink device ever.

                Have you ever been sitting next to an ignorant arsehole who is trying to justify his own bigotry and racism by spewing out ignorant, racist, ridiculous, bigoted words, so much so that you wanted to choke the life out of their worthless body? That's what I did for lunch today. I even resisted physical violence... I even resisted the urge to tell him what a pile of shit he was. But if I knew what he was driving, he might have 4 flat tires when he finished lunch.

                  Whoa. You had lunch next to the President-elect? I applaud your restraint.

                  Edit: to be clear, I'm only happy that you would restrain yourself in this situation for no other reason than it would be a shame for you to go to jail.

                      Well, the president-elect's balls were very clearly on this guy's chin.... and my restraint is a sign that I must be getting old. 25 year old me would have started some shit.

                        Just bought a pack of high power infrared diodes (Osram SFH 4556P) and hacked a few webcams (removed the IR filter and added a filter for visible light made from an old 3.5" floppy disk).

                        0_1484603912059_upload-69c679ea-39e0-4b7a-97ec-2b450eca327c

                        Great and cheap head-tracking setup.

                            No, the cam tracks the IR diodes which are attached to the headset. I like this method the most, because it works almost independent from environmental lighting.

                              Are you using FreeTrackIR? Or something else?

                                        @thwr external tracking? from beacons etc in the room?

                                        No, the cam tracks the IR diodes which are attached to the headset. I like this method the most, because it works almost independent from environmental lighting.

                                        Are you using FreeTrackIR? Or something else?

                                        OpenTrack. FreeTrack is causing issues with ArmA 3

                                        That's exactly what I want to build a setup like this for. Arma3 and FalconBMS.

                                        You also need the CL-EYE driver if you want to use this cam

                                        Yep my plan was to pick up a cheap ps3 eye and some IR LEDs.

                                        Get the ones I mentioned before. They are flat out the best you can get (SFH 4556P, P is the wide angle version)

                                          Getting those online? Seems to be only one retailer that I can see.
