   I am truly saddened to hear your account of things. I myself am trying to find out in my early 30s what piece of the computing puzzle I should reshape myself to be. I am driven to go through this book (in fact, I made the purchase just last

   I'm pretty sure you can read GP's statement to mean "sold on the mainstream applicability of VR". No one doubts that some segment of the market has purchased VR devices.

   My bet is that passive entertainment in VR will never catch real traction. Beyond gaming, entertainment will continue to be passive leisure. There is really no point for me to look around when I'm watching something other than the thin

    Perhaps you've held these views regarding the merit of billionaires long before your foray into the market, but the way you write your story makes it seem like you've done a complete 180 all of a sudden because now you are also ge

    I tire of this style but what I mean to say is I'm tired of almost all new art. Of photography, of music, of visual, architectural, of design in general. The over-abundance of art and design has dulled my tastes and I can't help b

    What's interesting though is that states that reject the notion of safety nets because "one size does not fit all" are doing the worst. Perhaps if they gave it a try, they might see that it does fit. But then we see that the

    Currently I have a desk with both a large exercise ball and office chair. I try to use the exercise ball more. My laptop is connected to a 27" monitor mounted on to the wall. I intend to change this so that my desk is more at waist hei

    Considering the callousness of the average consumer, a pandemic would be the bale that breaks the camel's back. It's hard enough to deal with them already. Knowing how filthy the average human is even before the pandemic, the idea
