I have to admit, a major reason I choose HTC Vive when I bought it was that it supported Linux. Unfortunately, there were few VR games that worked in Linux and the performance of those that worked in Linux left a lot to be desired. After a few aborted attempts at Talos Principle and Serious…
I have been sniping parts for a while now, now finally with the Black Friday discounts, I was able to put together a new machine. Azade as always helped me put it together. I also snagged an Odyssey+ on the Samsung BF deal. The cable length is ridiculous, but the resolution is amazing. The only…
Finally finished painting Zombicide Black Plague minis.
I attended GDEX today thanks to the GRID lab and John. It was everything you imagine a gaming expo to be, with cosplay, FPV drone racing, cool demos and so on. While attendance of geeks and nerds was a given anywhere in the world, I was not expecting this much on the supply side in…
When I joined OU, there were many things that excited me about the university: the location, the culture, colleagues… I must admit research was not one of the reasons I joined OU. Over the years however I came to realize how mistaken I was as OU provides a fertile ground for my kind of research….
Being in Hawaii in the middle of January is nice and all, but traveling 21 hours for 4 days is just not worth it.
I discuss my experience in setting up a ceiling based retractable cable management system for HTC Vive.
Through some mishaps in Vive repair process, I found myself as the proud owner of a third light house. The thing has been lying around gathering dust since it arrived. This weekend, I set out to put it to use. I established two rooms with separate tracking through three lighthouses. The setup could not have…
It has been a while since I finished the Last Night on Earth minis (great game btw). I was a bit miffed with how the minis would shift around in the box, rubbing against each other. Dullcote can only protect them so far after all… So I have been thinking of making an insert for the…
I jumped the gun and ordered the Fog of Love after seeing the AMA with the designer on reddit. The game offers a two player board game in the tone of romantic comedies. This premise was very attractive to me, as we lost our gaming groups in Arizona and with the kids, it was hard…
Today was the first time I joined the board game group at the library! Met real nice people and had lots of fun playing Endeavor together.
I have been slowly working on the zombicide minis. Finally this week I finished painting the regular zombies and fatties. All that remains are the special infected and the heroes. I guess the game will be ready to play by summer.
In 2016, I signed a petition in the hopes that our voices as academics would bring peace to my country. The Turkish government labeled me and the other signatories as traitors and have been working hard to quash our voices.
I keep talking about using large datasets and how some models take quite long time to run. One of those models is typically two way fixed effects models. While regular econometrics packages like plm are quite good for reasonably large datasets, more and more I find it hard to use with my datasets. Here is…
This semester I will be serving in OU COB Research Colloquium. We organize research presentations in college of business. As part of my duties I was tasked with creating posters. I considered my options and decided that creating new posters every other week was too much work. So I created a tex file that grabs…
I am doing a discrete choice experiment design for a project that we are just starting. The idea is to present screenshots of various app’s in an app store and ask the participants to pick one. For this, we need screenshots of app’s with key variables changed. The problem is that, unless you are careful…
Tonight I finally finished Last Night on Earth miniatures. I painted the heroes a while back. For a while I was pretty satisfied with the effort. Then I saw Sorastro’s Zombicide painting guide for zombies… Having painted the zombies I thought I was done, but then I saw Consadine’s basic basing guide. Well finally tonight…
My older daughter is old enough to play simple games (Animal upon Animal, Brandon the Brave) but dice throwing has been a problem. A while back I decided to build a dice tower with the dual purpose of both playing games with kids and to make sure the dice is properly random (no cheating).
Plotly presents a visually pleasing way to create 3D plots in R and Python.
Presented our paper in Hawaii, the paper was nominated for best paper. The paper is about add-on content.
In Hawaii for HICSS 50. So far so good. Have seen old friends, met new friends and am enjoying Panoply security competition. Paper being nominated as best paper does not hurt either.
