    Assuming that the sources are trustworthy, and I trust the NYT in their due diligence on this, what incentive is there for the sources to lie about an admission of responsibility? Personally I don’t see one. If it was the opposite I might b

    I have a 65” 4K OLED. I would not want to use it in this situation with the risk of burn-in from static content. Moreover, any LED consumes way more energy to keep the display always on, and in my mind that quality is a requirement for some

    Joan doesn’t have the 32” display though, right? I’m in the same boat as GP, but I want the giant display. Pinboard style. Edit: since they’re the same company, can the Joan software be run on the Visionect hardware?
