Hey if you want to spend a large amount of money travelling to China instead of virtually visiting the great wall at admittedly lower resolution, then go ahead. The casual tourists might actually just spend time in VR, you might have the great wall all to yourself.

In any case, I'd say that a trip to the Great Wall of China in VR is still more convenient than a trip to china as a whole.

You certainly would be spared the "Realistic" effects of landing in Beijing and donning a mask because of horrible, horrible smog. But hey, if you want to gasp for breath in the highest resolution available, then be my guest.

VR Tours suck btw. But that's not really the point, is it? It isn't about being "completely" realistic, it just needs to be immersive enough to fulfill certain needs.

We can't make it realistic enough for you right now, but hey, in twenty-five years, maybe your expectations might be met; that is, so long as your complaining about the current state doesn't ruin the industry.

In any case, VR probably won't compete with travel. Travelling is a special sort of experience that would probably require bringing all of the people in the location into the simulation. This brings up other problems.

She wishes that her goals were more in line with the kind of man that would have survived the weremoose epidemic. That's practically a positive attitude towards evolution.

Eh, it depends on how long the corpse was dead. I saw some zombies around the emergency room a week ago. They just recovered all of the faculties of life.

Besides, from a biological point, whether or not a person would be resurrected with any common memory or neural material would depend entirely upon the length of time they were dead for.

The immune system would have to recover for any sustained life to be continue. This would mean that eventually the corpses would only end up as terribly scarred creatures, rather than rotting ones.

Resurrecting a corpse past a certain point essentially requires building a new human body over a skeleton, so that wouldn't be disease infested.

Anything else is just puppeting a corpse. That's disgusting and pointless.

I'd ignore it, antivirus software has a long history of flagging false positives on memory alteration software, such as this.

Parchment definitely tends to have a higher value than pig-tail sheet. I haven't found a Papyrus plant yet, so no information there.

Is there a thread or page somewhere for the new version's progress?


Or will this one metamorphose into it as the time is right?
