March 27, 2024, 12:55:24 pm Mark says: Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked  When Hamas spokesman Abu Ubaida began a speech marking the 100th day of the war in Gaza, one confounding yet eye-opening proclamation escaped the headlines. Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”
September 20, 2017, 04:32:32 am Christian40 says: "The most popular Hepatitis B vaccine is nothing short of a witch’s brew including aluminum, formaldehyde, yeast, amino acids, and soy. Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Google is taking applications for creators to test the Jump virtual reality rig

Project Jump is Google’s committal to making virtual reality go mainstream by making it cheaper and easier for anyone to produce VR video, and as reported by TechCrunch it’s going to let a lucky few take a Jump rig for a spin this summer. The company has a form up where interested creators can explain why they deserve to be one of the lucky few – it’s two pages long with some basic biographical questions and an essay section.

For those who don’t know, Project Jump is a full end-to-end solution for producing and sharing VR video with the world. It includes not only the specification for how to build the perfect 360-degree virtual reality camera rig, which is open source, but also software for taking the video from the 16 individual cameras that make up the rig and stitching them together into one, and even a special player on YouTube that in combination with Google’s cheap Cardboard VR headset will allow anyone to enjoy the immersive videos produced with a Jump camera for a very low price.

It can be easy to deem upgrades to YouTube like the ability to play 8K video as frivolous since virtually nobody can actually play back that video with their hardware, but then you realize that it all ties into Google’s ambitions to make YouTube the home for video creators for years to come. Unlike smartphones, virtual reality is still early enough in its life that doubling the resolution of the displays through which we view it makes for noticeable gains in viewing enjoyment (i.e. you can see less pixels). If it really is the future of video like some believe, it’s necessary for YouTube to support the uploading and sharing of this content early so creators have an incentive to purchase the hardware and start creating with it.

If you’re one of those creators, may the odds be ever in your favor.
