Go down to the page and click the gun. Then you can pick up every element on the page, such as graphics and text. Put it in the bin or throw it around; the window wraps on left and right side (like if it is a Portal...). I find this really cool.
This scene alone is a totally different experience in VR, by the way. Far more intimidating of an interaction.

@DdCno1 @thingsiplay i wish there is a proper vr device for linux to try this
If you're actually curious about PC-VR, get a used headset for cheap and dual boot. Activate Windows with a tool instead of a license. Linus Torvalds won't come to your house and disembowel you for getting a taste of the dark side. Maybe play a flatscreen game or two that's not running on Linux yet (or ever) while you're at it.
I think everyone should see Google Earth VR at least once, for example. It's an astonishing experience. Like with Half-Life 2, it's a totally different thing compared to looking at it on a screen. Scale is the big factor and it's so perfect in regards to both, you will catch yourself trying to touch virtual objects, lean on virtual walls, duck under virtual obstacles. Hardware requirements, just like with HL-2 VR, are very low, so the barrier of entry is practically nil. I first experienced it on a GTX 960, which is most likely surpassed by integrated graphics by now.
