All Mode
Microsoft wants to take over the world, yes, everyone knows this. They want to be on your lap, on a laptop. They want to be in your living room, on a Xbox. Now, they want to be all over your face, in VR. Basically, Microsoft wants itself all over your face, in your eyes, and even in your brain! Gross, I don’t want Bill Gates’ product in my eyes. Do you? I would much rather have something that Tim Cook made in my face. Wouldn’t you?
Windows VR Mixed Reality Mixers
Today, we are getting a peek at what the future of Windows VR will be. This is important because this will probably be the way that we all browse our VR porn five years from now. Microsoft is demoing its now virtual reality Windows with Acer’s new headset which I have discussed here in the recent past. I won’t go into great detail, but this headset had some badass lasers sensors on it that allow it perceive space in a way similar to Microsoft’s very own sex-bomb, the holy grail of mixed VR known as the Hololens.

How does it work?
Microsoft is hoping to get all over your face with its Mixed Reality Experience that comes with the Windows Creator’s Update. I downloaded the Creator’s Update to my Virtual Boy, and I can’t get it to load, so I couldn’t test this experience for myself. If anyone knows a trick to get the Creator’s Update to boot on my Virtual Boy, please leave a detailed how-to in the comments section below. I am sure there are many other Virtual Boy users that have the same problem.
So the following descriptions will be based on a 3rd leg or second-hand experience. Whichever you prefer. To make sure they get their product in everyone’s face, Microsoft is baking Mixed Reality into Windows itself. This is what gives it immersive power and flexibility. Instead of staring at a stupid overly-colored flat 2d useless tile interface, users are presented with a desktop environment called “Cliff House.”

In the video below, you can see how this works. Calling the new desktop a Cliff House is somewhat deceptive but telling lies and deception are what Microsoft does best. They first began telling massive consumer-level deception and lies with their Microsoft Works branding. When first released in 1987, consumers bought Microsoft Works believing that Microsoft products actually worked. Microsoft kept producing the smoke and mirrors around Microsoft Works until 2009 when they finally admitted that Microsoft Works was actually Microsoft Office.

In the virtual Cliff House desktop (which looks like a weird open-walled structure), you can use Microsoft Office. This means you can type your homework, work on excel sheets, and make powerpoints in VR. All of this sounds so exciting and amazing, but the best thing about this mixed reality desktop is that you can use it for web browsing, watching 360 videos, and watching 3d videos. You know what this means? This will be the perfect way for browsing virtual reality porn. In your Cliff House, you can place windows anywhere you please while also scaling windows to any size. With this capacity, you will be able to virtually surround yourself with VRPorn.com windows for super efficient porn browsing. This means you will be able to watch 100 porn videos at once. Maybe I do want Microsoft’s product all over my face.
This is quite an impressive attempt to do multi-tasking in VR… Looks quite promising
This is such a great innovation that I’m already scared of what this would leave my poor wallet of. Surely gonna wait for this!
Can’t wait until this is practical application. I’ve already been dipping my toe into AR development as well.
yea mate, I am also eagerly waiting for this but I think its gonna take alot time to get in to hands of the consumers.
