Viable VR headsets for home use only came out last year (Oculus Quest). Nvidia's latest graphics card is sold out. People got rich mining cryptocoins on their computers (granted, 10 years ago, but still). There are still many interesti

I don't mean it is not important, but it doesn't change how society thinks about things in a significant way. Evolution theory offers an alternative to the explanation that "god created everything". That affected everybo
