Old Androids Never Die, They Just Have A Few Screws Loose
I've been playing with VR and ran across LinusTrinus, a somewhat-raw but quite functional bit of code that allows an Android phone with the Trinus VR client app to connect to Linux to make it into a SteamVR-compatible 3DOF headset. While it does not allow movement tracking, and only rotation, it is sufficient for a […]
I took down my QT/Android apps from Play; they had very few users and I have not done anything with them in months. Maybe I should start working again on Livetuner, add some of the network functionality I was hoping for. Or I could 3D print some guns, that'd be fun too.
I'm going to have a OPEN alpha test for Infinicolor, a coloring book app for grown-ups. Want in? Email me!

Now if there were only some QR-code based mechanism for making payments that already exists, so you didn't have to reinvent […]

The menus work, the perspective customization menu works, and the new GTK3-based UI is fast and fits in well with Ubuntu 14.04. :) Definitely worth trying out! I need […]
