  • I hate when they seem to think that everyone doesn’t care, but only the billionaires and a few corporations are causing the majority of the climate change.

    Why does everyone have to give up eating meat, so that companies like SpaceX can dump more Methane than cows burp in a a year because they save money on Methane fuel?

    Why does everyone have to buy new super expensive electric cars without any increases in minimum wages in 15 years?

    Why do we all have to live in mega cities with mass transit and walking everywhere, but I’m disabled and walking everywhere will send me back into a wheelchair.

    It bugs me that everything in the climate change news puts it on everyone, instead of calling all of the major polluters to account and their politicians who keep pushing the gas petal for money.

    Maybe it’s just me, but I’m pretty sure most of the regular people just can’t afford to make the needed changes because the economy is so top-heavy that no corporation is willing to increase their labor costs because of greed.

    But, maybe it’s just me.










  • Plus you’re locked into Mac only ecosystem. Even if controllers get made later, you can only play what works on iPads or screen sharing with your Mac.

    Hand tracking sounds cool, but how he explained it in the review it’s not as useful as the Index’s hand controller because you have to always have your hands in sight. And random movements make things happen you don’t mean to happen.

    This definitely isn’t like the iPhone launch.


  • I agree with you. People seem to think everyone has the addictive response, when people like me have such a muted response.

    I have spent the last 20 years with Chronic Nerve pain. Morphine doesn’t work with me, and I rarely feel alcohol unless it’s at poisonous levels. I tried to use Cannabis for pain management and spent almost $3K a year for two years of buying the highest potency I could find. I spent those years constantly smoking or vaping every hour to try to control the pain. I ended up damaging my blood vessels in my brain.

    Even in pain management at the VA they won’t give me the medication that works and just throw massive amounts of buprenorphine at me, which does nothing.

    I understand that some people have a problem, but for me I wish their voices would stop being amplified over the reality that people need access to opioid pain medication. Tylenol is not what people should have to take for major damage.
