The 'experts' you cite with names (one of which is a known fraudster) and without sources are wrong then? An off the cuff twitter comment is not an analysis, just false conjecture like you are participating in now. How is what Bra

My family is geographically spread out - we all meet up in vr once every couple weeks and hit a few rounds of mini golf/bowling or just chat for a while. It’s the closest thing we have to being in person for most of the year. It doesn’

My entire family and my D&D group use it, easily the slickest UX/UI of any chat app I have used. It is feature rich without feeling cluttered.

Yes either prison labor should be free or they should foot the bill for their costs to society. The second is more fair to society but a worse deal for prisoners

99% of laptops have swappable IO, storage? Not even close... not by a longshot. I can't even think of 1 with swappable IO. Maybe you are conflicted since easy repairs mean you no longer have a job/business?
