How a bunch of hackers freed the Kinect from the Xbox

How a bunch of hackers freed the Kinect from the Xbox

In 2010, when Microsoft unveiled the Kinect, it pitched the camera as a revolutionary new gaming device. Swing an imaginary lightsaber and that would be translated onscreen. Throw a football and it would be caught on your TV. Fifteen years later, we know the Kinect as an expensive failure. Microsoft overestimated the demand for playing games with your body. But the Kinect did still turn out to be revolutionary — just not for gaming. Now, we understand the Kinect is anything but a gaming device. It became a robotics game changer, enjoyed a brief dalliance with pornography, and is now upsold as a ghost hunting toy. None of which would have been possible had a community of hackers not come together to fashion open source drivers for the Kinect, freeing it from the limitations of being locked to the Xbox 360 and opening new frontiers of experimentation, creative expression, and commercial advancement. “Technically, nothing the Kinect did was entirely new,” says Memo Akten, an artist working with code, data, and AI and an assistant professor …

Akshay Kumar is back with his bunch of rogue friends in Housefull 5 and I am not sure if I am liking the first song, Laal Pari!

Akshay Kumar is back with his bunch of rogue friends in Housefull 5 and I am not sure if I am liking the first song, Laal Pari!

Laal Pari Song Review: I’m Not Sure If I’m Ready For This! (Photo Credit – YouTube) Akshay Kumar and his lunatic style are back with Housefull 5. Along with him, there is a bunch of stars, and all of them seem to go rogue in the first song of the comedy film. Titled Laal Pari, the song has been composed and sung by Yo Yo Honey Singh along with Simar Kaur. Lyrics are written by Honey Singh along with Alfaaz. To begin with, the song is catchy and is placed on the same beats as other Housefull attention seekers. Be it Oh Girl You’re Mine, Anaarkali Disco Chali, or Shaitaan Ka Saala! Laal Pari is from the same Universe, and it grabs attention from the very first beat. Laal Pari is loud, colorful, and undeniably energetic, ticking all the boxes for a massy dance track. However, while the audio is great despite being a generic party song, my problem starts with the video! It has Akshay Kumar channeling his inner Housefull tharak, and he dances …

Thunderbolts* movie review: Rag-tag bunch of antiheroes almost bring back Marvel glory days | Movie-review News

Thunderbolts* movie review: Rag-tag bunch of antiheroes almost bring back Marvel glory days | Movie-review News

Marvel’s latest attempt to fill the void (that’s a big four-letter word in Thunderbolts*) left by the departure of the Avengers is really – and hearteningly – about two women who are on two ends of a very wide spectrum. If Florence Pugh brings sincerity, depth and a tinge of melancholy to anything she does, Julia Louis-Dreyfus represents the cynicism where all those feelings go to die. Director Schreier does well to keep that basic conflict at the heart of this story, even as Machiavellian CIA types run circles around Washington bureaucracy and almost wreck New York. Pugh is Yelena, an orphaned child assassin; Russell is Walker, a disgraced Captain America fill-in; and John-Kamen is Ava alias Ghost, a super-soldier with the power to appear and disappear. They all have done the CIA’s dirty work in the past, which hangs heavy on their hearts. Louis-Dreyfus, the CIA chief going by the audacious name of Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, has been their handler and, with some Congressmen on the sniff now about her activities, decides it …

Thunderbolts movie review: A bunch of misfits nearly take you back to Marvel’s glory days, but stop short of greatness | Hollywood

Thunderbolts movie review: A bunch of misfits nearly take you back to Marvel’s glory days, but stop short of greatness | Hollywood

Thunderbolts movie reviewCast: Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, Olga KurylenkoDirector: Jake SchreierStar rating: ★★★ There are times while watching Marvel’s newest offering, Thunderbolts, that you are transported back to the good ol’ days – about 8-9 years ago when Marvel Cinematic Universe was churning out hits year after year, when their films balanced action and humour perfectly, and when storytelling had humanity apart from the VFX extravaganza. Thunderbolts has all that. It even has a beating heart, and touches some sensitive issues. Yet, it is far from the bar that Captain America: Civil War had set for superhero team-up films. It engages, entertains, and even touches, but almost always barely on a surface level. (Also read: Thunderbolts first reactions call film ‘one of the best Marvel movies in years’, leak praises ‘amazing’ action scenes) Thunderbolts movie review: Marvel is back! Well, almost, and not quite. About Thunderbolts In Marvel Comics, the Thunderbolts are a team of anti-heroes and villains united by General Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross. In the film, they are brought together by Valentine …

AB de Villiers has backed Temba Bavuma-led South Africa to win the World Test Championship (WTC) final to be played against Australia at Lord’s in June. “Proteas have done exceptionally well, it shows you they’re playing a positive brand of cricket, they’re going for results, I love that about them,” de Villiers told the media on the sidelines of SA20 third season. “With Temba Bavuma as captain taking a lot of criticism over the years, look at where he’s now, taking the team to the WTC final over and above incredible cricketing nations like India, New Zealand (and) England.” De Villiers said he would back Proteas to come good for their attitude on and off the field. “They’re up against Australia, at Lord’s, (on) a moving wicket, against one of the best bowling attacks in the world, and a batting line-up that bats deep. But I will never write my team off. South Africa will aiming a clean-sweep come the second Test in Gqeberha. (AP) “They’re a bunch of fighters, and Temba Bavuma mentioned this …

Rannvijay & Team Bring Another Bunch Of Youngsters Who Can’t Name The 1st President Of India!

MTV Roadies Double Cross Ep 1 Review: Rannvijay & Gang Back To Routine !( Photo Credit – Instagram ) Another season of Roadies has arrived, and to everyone’s relief, after struggling for a few years, the reality show is back with Rannvijay. The team of mentors includes Neha Dhupia, Rhea Chakraborty, Prince Narula, and the new entrant, Elvish Yadav. Titled MTV Roadies Double Cross, the auditions have started with a few changes. The basics are the same, the mentors are bidding for the contestant they want to pick in their team. And while, the first episode presented 6 – 8 contestants totally fit and entertaining one might be worried about where is the youth heading to. This bunch of youngsters, for another time since the inception of this show, did not know who the President of India is or what is Karnataka’s capital. Gladly, and probably for the first time, Rannvijay shames them for not knowing this. Now, I understand that this is just a show meant for entertainment purposes, but still, knowing basics about …

“The Baby Bunch”: Jasprit Bumrah And Co Targeted By Nasty Assault From Australian Media Yet Again

Indian cricket team attacked by Australian media once again© X (Twitter) It was an interesting day of play in Sydney as India and Australia fought it out in the final Test encounter of their five-match Test series on Friday. From India skipper Rohit Sharma not playing in the match following a dismal run of form to Jasprit Bumrah engaging in an on-field spat with Sam Konstas, the day had it all. Australia finished with the advantage as India were bowled out for just 185 but Usman Khawaja‘s dismissal on the final ball of the day was enough to set up an interesting encounter. While experts and fans had a lot of opinions about everything that transpired on Friday, the Australian media once again took a brutal dig at Jasprit Bumrah and Co. The West Australian featured a number of Indian cricketers looking disappointed along with the caption – “The Baby Bunch – India cement status as world’s biggest sooks”.
