Just have only one person wearing a camera and blindfold, and the other watching a tv feed. Watching someone else's VR view on a TV isn't too bad.

I wonder how much they offered shotwell to jump ship?

Two groups can be very different without a clear line delineating them.

That 2.5TWh is probably an hour of active daytime usage though, no?

"Commemorative Coin" would be a better name than NFT, fitting in nicely with the crypto coin nature.

We will (already do) have robotic weapons. Building robotic soldiers would be pretty pointless. A prime example of trying to remake a process with new tech rather than redesigning …

The cost of manufacturing millions of soldiers would be incomprehensibly expensive, require decades of prep time, and have so many possible points of catastrophic failure that you'…

As a non physicist, this always seemed to be the most logical explanation of the double slit experiment. The particle by default carries out all possible variations weighted by the…

Everytime UBI comes up I see a slew of common arguments about inflation and rents. I think those are debateable. But globalism isn't. If everyone gets some money for free, the cost…

Why would grade school kids have access to their college funds?

When I closed the tab, I continued seeing the effect on HN for a minute. Very unpleasant.

I mean it depends on what you replace it with. Sales tax on basic necessities is regressive. Real estate tax, not so much. Capital gains tax definitely not.

Romantic, but you might feel differently if your view of the stars was obscured first by smog before light.

Nobody really doubts that some art fails because its just not good. Differentiating art that is technically superb to art that really resonates is a more interesting conversation. …

I'd wonder how evictions have affected this. What's your disposable income if your rent is $1,000 per month but you just don't pay it?

Fewer articles shown is probably correct. But more clickbaity sounds more likely to me.

The new Georgia senator is the youngest elected senator since Biden. That was... an odd factoid to take in for me.

My impression is that aside from some crazies who generally get downvoted unilaterally, you rarely see antagonistic opposition to saying Tesla is overvalued. This doesn't hold if y…

It's often the case that the UIs are, in universe, not useable by non-experts too. People who don't regularly use the tech are often baffled by its apparent complexity if they need…

I don't know if I agree that a restaurant selling artisinal cheeses should be held to different standards than the lowest common denominator of nutrient gruel restauranteers.

I played a bit of Witcher 3 on switch. It had a lot of very obvious graphical weaknesses. As someone who does some game dev, it was pretty poor. But also, that's fine. Most people …

This feels like a poor analogy though. Throws are part of the game design. What's being talked about is more like exploiting a glitch. The glitch may truly be unfair and not part o…

> Speculating on whether the paintings had a sacred or other purpose, he said: “It’s interesting to see that many of these large animals appear surrounded by small men with their a…

This is a good point. If you sprinkle one donut in a dozen, the average (mean) donut has few sprinkles or (median) no sprinkles. But the average sprinkle is nearby many, many sprin…

Were fruits the thing most commonly cut out of your diet though? Most people (Americans at least) don't eat that much fruit, but eat a lot of fructose from other sources.
