New York is awesome (I prefer it over SF, really) unfortunately Trump happened so I'm not planning to move to the US anymore.

Just as an aside, a potentially good alternative for international calls are callback services (depends on the service provider of course, could also be worse) as you will be able to skip your local networking hardware with them. I don&#x27

The iPhone was a general "internet" device and a "phone" and the PSVR is a "video game" — nytimes is comparing apples with oranges ;)

Have you tried PSVR yourself? If so, which games?

Oh my REZ <3 but the mentioned "Bound" is also amazing. I still like BattleZone VR and Thumper a lot too! PSVR is solid!

Breaks really are important mostly because VR can be really taxing for your brain most certainly so for longer periods of play. With regards to comfort: I actually prefer the PSVR in that regard, for my anatomy the most comfortable headset

That's actually why I love the PSVR – I prefer the haptics and general setup of traditional video/computer gaming. Still, I also love the VIVE for what it could do in terms of creativity / productivity applications.

Same here :) I've extended experience with all major VR headsets and I actually prefer the PSVR because of Sony's top-notch vertical integration. That said, I get the general criticism for the current state in VR ("low"

Let's hear as many point of views as possible then and accordingly pick and sync eventually. I have to think of Conway's Law – extrapolating from there to the whole internet, maybe we're all currently in the process of doing

I don't see neither FDR nor Reagan in Trump, mostly bitter regression. So if the "Pax Americana" is failing, what comes next? How can we do better as a species this time?

I'm always amazed how I skip a whole class of time/money intensive problems by not owning a car. It's a bit of a shame though as "Tesla" has actually been the first kind of car I would have been interested in.

IMHO presence wise we are there already, even with the PSVR (especially the PSVR in my case, prefer cockpit/controller based games). The resolution maybe needs a bit of imagination to make up for but again presence as described by

I don't even want to know how much revenue I brought Apple by "word of mouth" alone as I've been one of the gazillion fevered and outspoken Unix converts (Darwin fan since 2004). Friends, family and random people in ev

Swimming - hated it back in school, started to love it five years ago during a very stressful time in my life. Peace and meditation is what it mostly does for me. If you are interested do yourself a favor and check out the book "Tota
