After the FB/Oculus news, I looked into alternatives and found about this InfinitEye project from France that claims to do 210 degree of horizontal FOV, fully covering the human peripheral vision (while the Rift only does only 90 degrees). I'd pay attention to this one now.

Only if they show tits.
Then again, Facebook has not broke Instagram?
That's implying that Instagram was worth jack shit to anyone but retarded, duckface-selfie-taking, fake-blonde teenage girls.
Bill Nye won out? Huh, that's interesting. Here in Brazil, back in the 90s, both shows were aired: Beakman's World was quite popular, while Bill Nye was completely ignored. In fact, I recall watching Nye once and thinking... "this Beakman-wannabe is much less fun."
These days, interface designers think a HIG should be printed on toilet paper. Browsers now always look "alien" to whatever environment where they're run.

If this had been a group of muslims funded by al Qaeda, who had made a grossly inflammatory hate movie against your greatest hero, whoever that is, would you have come out to defend their freedom of speech?
How factually correct is their movie?
Also the hype about message passing microkernels died a decade back. They look great on paper but in theory they're slow and inefficient.
But isn't that precisely what fast and efficient QNX is?
I assume he's thinking of this tale.
