Thats pretty cool. I can see alot of accidents happening because of focusing too much on the the things layed out. If mobile phones cause millions of accidents, I can see this being worse but its definitely a cool tech.

I have to agree i see a lot of accidents.

I don't know really. Seems pretty cool to me. Driving and tap the air to answer the phone for example or sending a text by typing in the air. No fumbling for a device. So you are not as distracted as you would normally be if you tried texting while driving.

This OS has alot of potential for future applications in phones, and other areas.

I have a question of how this will be considered for say a next generation console maybe? I noticed the Dekko site has May 9th on it and titled expect some news soon. We could see a headset mirrored with Kinect or PSMove to implement an at home version of this, but on the go I believe is still years away.

When this comes out I can't wait to see all the people wearing google glass staring at walls.

awkward.

dunno if i want to have a device mapping the inside of my life that can saved by a corporation and used by 3rd parties.

That's the problem with facebook and google.
The amount of info those two companies have on people is ridiculous.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
