This is a fairly poorly shot video, but it was the first try, and I am working to make the next recordings better. So far I have not been able to do much to fix the windshield since it is Lexan, but I will potentially replace it so videos can be more clearly shot. I also changed the mount so it is more stable and so I can include the speedometer. Hopefully in Portland the weather warms up and I can get some great videos out this Spring/Summer since I am planning on taking advanced riding courses + doing some track time.
Not kind of cool, this is freaking awesome, in the true sense. Make sure to watch in full HD, and full screen it. I especially like the lights, and thunder storms. The clarity is also simply amazing, how you can see right down into the population centers.
This is great representation of my feelings towards modern computer gaming. it is an experience that forces choices, and shows life through another lens. Even in minimalistic games like Tetris, or Chess, there is a complexity to them in how the system and mechanism works. I enjoy tinkering with mechanical objects, and have all my life. Many of these games feel like a natural extension of this. Now many would say there are plenty of ‘bad’ games out there, but I would argue there are just that many flawed systems as well. It takes a breadth of experiencing the good, the bad, and the ugly to really enjoy the good stuff when it comes along. I was playing World of Tanks recently, an online tank battle game, which is more towards the arcade end of things than simulation, but I was really enjoying experiencing the otherwise historical tanks and exploring how nuts some of these tank crews must have been going into battle with no metal enclosure to their turrets in some instances, when you really sit down and soak in some of these experiences, they can be interesting to work with.
My closing statement; go get a fun game and really play it, soak it in, and enjoy it like a good book.

Check out this ultra-cool video describing a man in the middle attack on HDCP protected media! This is a truly far out attack with some interesting consequences. As a video geek, this is fun to see.
