Sliders on Peacock Season 4 Episode 4, “Virtual Slide”. Worth watching as this episode from 1998 realistically conveys the dystopian potential of VR/AR headsets. The headsets are centrally controlled and wirelessly networked. Topics covered include privacy violations, IP theft, manipulation of reality, social decay, virtual image and body autonomy, nested reality. It’s only taken 26 years to create a convincing reality that allows someone to wear the headset publicly with minimal problems. The fact that Apple hit the target on a 1.0 product is actually frightening. What will another 30 years of development bring?

40 is the new 30, but 42 is the same ole 42.

Correct. You should add the label that this chart compares forecast demand for EVs vs actual demand, along with the revised forecasts.

How was China’s military shown to be stripped bare?

Dumb question, how do you make two apples off center from each other?

This is kind of the opposite of the interface that I want (compact text), but if you like to use Lemmy/reddit to scroll memes, then this looks like a great and very clean implementation.

I completely agree with you. I personally use the Voyager PWA on my iPhone exclusively. The interface is nearly perfect, and regularly gets cross platform updates. I find that I almost never use Lemmy on the desktop because it feels a bit too clunky for me.

I prefer the school of hard knocks. Do you think they know what a save button is now?

I remember my kids crying the first time they lost their school assignments using Microsoft Office at home. They’d only ever used Google docs and no one taught them to save. They also had no idea what the save icon is or represented (floppy disk).

On Lemmy.world you can use old.lemmy.world for a theme similar to old.reddit.com.

I guess the dictionary nazis on this site need joke comments to be flagged with a trigger warning.

Problem is Tesla is removing the turn signal and shifter stalks. The turn signal will be a button on the wheel, and shifter will be on the touch screen.

Integrated graphics is already a thing. Intel iGPU has over 60% market share. This is really competing with Intel and low-end discrete GPUs. Nice to have the option!

Based on your comment, I collect obsolete and redundant cords for TVs, computers, and game consoles. I need to reevaluate things!

What’s your favorite record you have, and is it “Baby Wants to Ride”?

You can also double click the TV button to switch between open apps.

It’s not scalping if you bought them on the secondary market, it’s hoarding.

That’s hilarious. Geezers like me will probably assume they are just a group of wholesome and very nearsighted kids.

I live in So Cal and in a couple weeks there will be a vintage computing fest. Maybe all the haters and people downvoting you could show up and find out what people used to pay $10,000 to put up with. It’s like they want nothing novel to exist.

Have you ever seen a group of 20something friends at dinner together where each person was on their phone ignoring the others? At least with the Apple headset they would be deliberate about their intentions.
