anytime there's a new VR headset, I think about this review of the Scuba XC-7 from the Official US PlayStation Magazine, and how most of these complaints are still true.

I think, much like I just did with threads, I may revert this account back to Par0silience, my media/gaming handle. I'm still doing Layouts I Love, but it's not the only thing I want to post about.

My favourite photos from every camera I've owned
According to my Lightroom library, I have photos from 55 different cameras. That's way too many for a blog post, so maybe I'll bring it down to the cameras where I shot more than 500 photos.

Looking Back on Newtype USA 15 Years Later
Once upon a time (or, before internet access was as accessible as it is today) anime magazines played a key role in keeping anime fans plugged in to what was going on in the anime industry. Bigger, bolder, and glossier than its competition, Newtype USA was easily among the most popular anime publications in the west before suddenly going out of print in 2008.
