Niche shops are great, but fuck Amazon. The majority of what they sell is available directly from the companies that supply them.

I usually take a month off of work in the fall each year. One of my bucket list items is taking that time off to find a job with the worst bosses and seeing how far I can go while giving no fucks.

The cool thing about browser choice is there are no "correct" answers -- it's personal preference.

So don't let the fanboys get you down. You're entitled to your opinion even if it is wrong.

Irregardless, it's the same difference even if its spelled wrongly. I for one could care less, so it's a mute point per say.

My bad eyes totally didn't see that was the antifa flag.

So nothing I said applies to this post ... whoops.

Not at all.

It's almost as if we shouldn't listen to the marketing types that are trying to sell a product, but rather what the end users say.

I remember trying VR in the 90s: from the VirtualBoy to expensive and bulky setups in malls. I've tried 3D TV, google cardboard, and the range of consumer VR across the decades. They were all fundamentally flawed and like everyone else I was jaded. Then I tried what the 2020s had to offer.

My take away is that the technology available has finally reached the point where consumer VR is starting to become viable. We're seeing the first real prototypes that have the capacity to evolve into something practical. It's still expensive, bulky, and limited -- but the fundamental issues that plagued previous generations of VR have mostly been addressed.

The trick is not forcing it -- the instant someone feels even remotely nauseous they should stop. If you the user starts actually feeling sick they're liable to sensitize themselves to motion sickness.

~~People don't have a problem with tankies because they want to use violence against fascists. Violence against fascists is fine.~~

~~People dislike tankies because they're reactionary assholes. They dislike them for cheer-leading unjustifiable abuses and failures because they believe we're in some zero-sum game that excuses it. Because they're extremists, oppressive authoritarians, and want to use violence against all of their ideological enemies, including the "wrong kinds" of communist.~~

~~The good things they believe in and do aren't what people have an issue with: it's the inexcusably bad parts of their ideology people don't like, and the fact they're obnoxious about it.~~

Edit: I stand by what I said, but apparently its easier to recognize flags when you expand the image ... and my rant had nothing to do with the post.

"Hurting the feelings of the Chinese people" has been one of the CCP's favorite political catchphrases since 1959. It even has its own wikipedia article.

It's often followed with China's final warning.

It depends on if the shitty car is easier to steal.

It's pretty common for criminals to steal cars to have an "untraceable" getaway car for other crimes -- they don't care how nice it is.

I don't know, a chicken at the state fair beat me at tic-tac-toe when I was 10: they must be pretty smart.
