The main problem is the poor image quality. It's much nicer to look at monitors than fuzzy text and images on the Oculus Quest or Oculus Quest 2. It also makes me feel sick after an hour even if I'm in a static space that's

That's the unique/controlling way that China works. They block foreign apps to spur the development of local alternatives. But plenty of western businesses have thrived in China. KFC, Pizza Hut, Apple, Audi to name a few off ha

TikTok has definitely become the platform for short form video content. It used to be YouTube, but it's since matured into a place to watch more well produced videos in the 20 minute range. If you haven't given TikTok a chance

The problem is, grades are everything in school. I just finished a high stakes algorithms class where 75% of our grade was exams with only a few questions. A decent chunk of the class has to retake the class each semester, so it's im

To be honest, I don't care that much. Google, Facebook, Microsoft, they all do the same thing or worse. I started using an iPhone because it had the best tech at the time and it was the most convenient. The privacy stuff is nice to

I've been to Tokyo 7-Elevens, but the 7-Elevens in China are just as good if not better. There's so much fresh food and healthy snacks. When I was in Beijing, we usually got breakfast from the 7-Eleven across from the hotel each

C++ compilers massively improved their error messages in the last couple decades. If you were missing a semicolon, it used to give you some syntax error when it tried to parse the next statement. Now, it just tells you that you forgot a s

Better Headline: "Email Is Bad" It's the worst way of communicating with people. Personal messages get lost in a sea of receipts and marketing emails. Conversation chains are hard to follow, and it's so easy to lose o

It's not just the TPM. It's requiring 8th generation or later Intel processors and the equivalent for AMD. Microsoft still sells machines with incompatible processors for Windows 11. Yet we're all going to be losing suppor
