    The Chinese made cars meet the same safety standards as US and EU made cars (at least the ones sold outside of China do). I thought GP was talking more about the safety standards f…

    No mention of EVs in that article, but even if there were, it's not like car fires are a new thing. Maybe better phrasing would be "not actually the new problem it is made out to b…

    I still use my original rift for sim racing. It's brilliant, and much more convenient than trying to setup 3 or 4 monitors instead. I have no interest in a metaverse or social vr a…

    2-4mbps is better than 0 even if it is divided by all users in that area. Especially considering that in a lot of areas this will open up coverage to, you could be the only user re…
