Automatics are so much more efficient than any driver, the only folks stuck in the "OMG it doesn't have a 3rd pedal" are old "I can save 1 MPG by shifting" people. I recently got rid of a manual car, not because it had a stick but other reasons, and would go automatic all day if I were in the market for a car.

Comment Smaller glasses, heck yeah I'm in (Score 3, Interesting) 51

I use the Quest 2 for fitness (boxing apps) and the worse (worst?) part is the headset is so big and constricting, it feels like I'm wearing a PC on my head, which I really am. After a few fights, I'm sweating bullets not just from the physical exertion, but that big ass Quest 2 helmet forming a heating pad around my face.

I definitely welcome some way smaller wireless headsets/glasses.

Maybe at the time 10 years seemed like a lot, but more likely he probably thought he could beat the system. From what I've read, Ulbricht comes off as a "I'm smarter than you and I know it" type of cat. Life in prison does seem a bit harsh but he did order a few murders so I can't have much sympathy for him.

Don't get me started on the Control4 ecosystem. It's for rich people who don't want to mess with anything. Good luck trying to add a Roku or any device as you'll have to contact the local reseller to send someone out to add it. There is the Composer software that's read-only but I saw the reseller tech had a full version where he could add stuff. At 190$ per hour, I'll walk over to the closet to click over to my Roku, thanks.

Maximum indeed. If I ran across that Krusty Krab kid's resume, I'd immediately shit-can it regardless of how talented he/she/they might be.
I have a Linked-In account strictly for keeping an eye on potential jobs but I don't login much any more due to the snowflakes constantly crying, "Wah, this recruiter was mean to me, give me a thumbs up if you have ever been mistreated!".
