Staking the future of the climate on trusting countries to be fair is childish thinking. The ONLY metric that matters is global gigatons of CO2 emitted per year. This needs to decrease. Playing hand waving games with per capita between co

Lead by example? If you think China gives a crap about your example you’re horrendously naive.

The above was meant to be pro nuclear. Though I see how someone could take it either way. Point being, saying one energy source is too expensive Vs another is an idiotic argument should one lead to decarbonization. But sure guys, go ahead a

Yep, of course. To clarify: when I said “may not” I meant in the sense “might not” rather than it isn’t permitted.

Sorry, dont really know much about Ionic. The GeckoView site should have all you need to implement it instead of a Webview, it's pretty straight-forward.

On many real world AndroidTV devices (I've tested a couple dozen) you definitely do NOT get Chrome updated properly even though it's supposed to. Android is the Wild West, with all the good and bad that follows. Manufacturers are

GeckoView is awesome. We switched to using it with TelemetryTV (a next gen digital signage platform) and it's made our Android app a lot more compatible. The core of our player application is a Progressive Web Application that runs ev

No. This is relevant. It was published by the New York Times which is not a hysterical source. From the linked article: Washington State has declared a state of emergency over the coronavirus, and researchers who studied two cases there sa

To put this in context we're talking about 4 to 5 mm per year of sea level rise on average globally for the next several decades. Some areas will be more and some less as sea level rise isn't uniform (for instance isostatic reboun

Depends on your preference I suppose. For me it needs to be at least 4x the density of the oculus.

That solves the graphics card horsepower issue. You still need a lot of pixels even if you're not driving all of them at high resolution all the time.

You'd need to move your head a lot to look at stuff. Gets old quickly. Try out the VR desktop on oculus and you'll quickly discover the need for much more dense pixels.

I'm your age. I find my oculus totally useless for real world work. I'm used to a 4k monitor as a desktop.

The resolution is way too low. Needs to be 4-16x greater for desktop replacement. Also the headsets are too hot and bulky to comfortably wear for a full workday.

China is aging as well, their percentage of working adults peaked recently and is now declining. Interestingly while Europe has this problem as well, the US does not thanks in a large part due to immigration.
