Comment Re:Your logic is flawed (Score 1) 363

Except for, you know, all the evidence they produced. Like corroborating witnesses who said the accusers had told them years earlier about it. Witnesses who said he trolled the malls, and had been kicked out for harrassing teenagers. Colleagues who knew about his behaviors. Signatures and notes proving there was a past relationship. You have to believe some really out there conspiracy stuff to think this is just a wholly fabricated smear campaign.

....Maybe. I don't entirely disagree, despite the fact that I'm a Vive owner. One thing I'll say is that HTC have no reported plans or a "Vive2" any time soon, and seem to be building and releasing things in a fairly modular way. Wireless is on the way this year, as is a new, supposedly more comfortable headstrap with headphones built in. There's talk of upgraded versions (ie easier to manufacture, I believe - no real technical advantage) of the lighthouses, but nothing announced as far as I know. A higher resolution HMD would be nice, but it seems like that's waiting on technological advances, as well as better CPUs and video cards to handle something even more beefy than it already needs. There's talk of different controllers coming out, at some point.

So, I bit the bullet and bought it, knowing that it's early. I like the idea that there will be incremental optional hardware upgrades for the next few years, and not another $500-$800 purchase on the horizon. I don't think Vive hardware goes through any major revisions until 2019. Rift probably has some work to do with its tracking, from what I've read, and PSVR lifespan is already limited by the hardware it's tied to.

OK. I'll stand corrected, if that's the case. He's said some provocative things about BLM, but that's not race per se. And I became familiar with him through a video in which he was pretty vicious to a transgender woman, but that's not sexual preference. My bad. I won't back down from his demonization of Islam or women, though.

I agree with you. I work near the Berkeley campus, and it's awful what happened.

However, nearly all of us have been conditioned from a very young age that Nazis need to be destroyed at all costs, or the world only gets worse. I wonder how many video game Nazis I've killed in my lifetime? If you're going to demonize people on the basis of race, religion, gender, or sexual preference, as Milo does regularly, then it shouldn't be a surprise to be compared to a Nazi and have people trying to stop you at all costs. Either figure out why you're coming across that way to others and alter your message to convey what you really intend (whatever that is, I don't actually even know), or continue to be an asshole provocateur and be prepared to receive the conflict you've elicited.

That used to be the case. Sadly, it assumes that both sides are telling the truth, and an awful lot of conservative-leaning news presented complete falsehoods, especially in the run-up to the election. What's halfway between truth with liberal commentary and a lie with conservative commentary?
