Yes it’s going to be a shit show for years and we’ll all have to adapt, including figuring out what works and doesn’t for our kids. Hopefully by the time your child is a little older things would have settled. Best wishes! BTW, we’re not do

The audio market gets mocked all the time, for good reasons such as this. So, I’m going to draw a parallel with another market which I believe is very similar, IMHO of course, and that is the Espresso market. There are grinders and machin

If I remember correctly, it used to be called About.com - with categorized and human curated links. It was big during the dot com days, but withered after Google. Interestingly, I do think that that model may need to be revisited. Edit: I f

IF you're willing to do the work, an option would be get an HP T730 from eBay, add a low profile Intel quad port I340 or I350 adapter and perhaps add a little more RAM (depending on the T730 you get 4GB-8GB is more than sufficient), an

To all the folks peddling VR, just take a look at the 3D TVs. At one point they were the future, now they are nowhere. Same will happen with the VR headsets. Note: just like the peddlers are predicting that VR is the future, I’m predicting
