Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).
Anybody got an Oculus VR system?

My daughter just got the Quest 2. I've only messed around with it a little, but it seems pretty cool. What I do like is that when you buy most of the games, you have a 14 day trial period, as it's so hard to know whether or not you're truly going to like a game or not. Me, I'm a console guy (love my FPS), so I don't know that I'd every use it regularly, but it was cool walking through Anne Frank's house, or touring the International Space Station with it.
I bought one when they originally came out a few years ago. It works really well and is realistic as shit, but you can only use it for so long. Socially, its really weird as you are in a room swinging at shit looking like a moron in your own world. You aren't going to be hanging out with your friends with that headset on.
I ended up selling it a few weeks after we got it. Not because it was bad or anything but i was really just curious what they were all about. I knew they would be coming out with better versions etc so didnt hang on to it for long.
Looking back, glad i sold it as I don't think we would have used it very much. My kids much prefer fortnite to the oculous stuff.

I have used one for work. The facilities I work on are modeled in 3D. One of the guys I work with bought a couple and did a virtual walkthrough of a facility we are working on for one of our clients. I thought it was dumb and didn’t want to spend the time, but when I put the thing on it was actually pretty cool. It’s surprisingly easy to get lost/ forget where you are.
I have the PSVR and it is cool, has really come a long way but it gets old quick. Can only use it for 30 min to an hour at a time. Mostly only comes out when I have company over.
Waiting for the day when they link the flesh light and VR goggles...
Gang bang time?
Great.... I do the pitching. Perhaps, you do the catching.

Make sure you get dressed up. Have manners. No hoodies.
