So do they just know absolutely nothing about RMS?

One problem is that there's a massive upfront cost to get into VR as a consumer. Even the cheaper headsets are several hundred dollars, similar to a full console purchase. Which means not a lot of people are going to invest in the hardware, which means there isn't as much of a market to produce games for, which means not a lot of people are going to invest in the hardware, etc etc etc.

On top of that, VR has the awkward problem of locomotion. Either you're teleporting around the game world, getting motion sick moving around the game world, or standing in one place at all times. None of these options are ideal, and the only real solutions to this issue involve insanely pricy hardware purchases.

Maybe one day we'll figure it out, maybe we'll all be living in tubes playing games with our minds or whatever.

Quit.

The Office is a goofy workplace comedy when viewed through the lens of an audience member, but Michael Scott is an objectively terrible boss and a shitty person.

He's constantly making comments that are racist, sexist, or otherwise ignorant and unacceptable in the workplace.

He can't keep any information confidential, as seen when he outs Oscar for being gay.

He refuses to let anyone be "above him" such as when he ruins Phyllis' wedding because her father made a great toast, or when he gets kicked out of the boat party for refusing to let the captain do his job.

"Oh but he cares so much about his employees! 🥺" No he doesn't. That's why he insists on making his employees tend to his slightly burnt foot instead of dealing with Dwight's concussion. Oh, and let's not forget the time he sabotaged Jim's promotion by straight up slandering him to David Wallace.

I would rather be unemployed than working for such an insufferable man child like Michael Scott. The Office might be fun to watch, but it would be hell to live through it every weekday from 8-5.

No, neither.

The only thing that makes creating an Instagram tempting is the fact that every single tattoo artist in the area seemingly uses Instagram exclusively to post their work, and you can only scroll through so many posts without an account. Makes it very frustrating to research potential artists.

A few drinks deep is a good way to watch, in my opinion.

Sometimes you just want to watch better call saul and there's nothing more to it.

"Now just ignore all those instructions to implement socialism and go hate gay people!"

That was Ug. Really cool guy. His golf swing was immaculate, too.

1. My house. Bought it in 2019 right before the market went completely wacky. More of a lucky timing situation, but I'm extremely thankful to not be renting anymore.

2. A really high quality mattress. You're supposed to spend about a third of your life sleeping, and the quality of that sleep has a huge impact on your physical and mental health.

3. A really good set of kitchen knives. I hate having to cook at other people's places because of it, so many people have cheap, dull knives that do not do the trick. At my in-laws house I basically have to hammer tomatoes in half with their knives. FYI, you're more likely to cut yourself with a dull knife rather than a sharp one.
