We have a ton of natural gas but not sweet crude. That’s why we still buy tons of foreign oil

Compared to other HMDs in the high spec range they are garbage.
Magic Leap has been trying to get into the mil simulation market for years and every evaluation I have to do with them always gets low marks compared to Varjo and others that put out products. There “hand tracking” hardware is also ass. Like trying to type with each of your figures being the size of a chipotle burrito.
The industry partners I’ve worked with and for hate them, the soldiers hate them, even there own support staff dog the products when helping setup a demonstration.

You had to open up and fix the GPU yourself? Yeah fuck that I'd want a new one or them to do it with an extended warranty.

I lucked out with one on the best buy website. Though it's an XFX and not an AMD reference model thankfully.

Kids and retired people seem pretty happy though so it's not work they need to make them happy. A cleaner would probably be happier not working but pursuing a hobby or their own project.

Is this a rhetorical question because you think you know the answer or are you interested in reading something firsthand that is NOT the media party-line?

Nah, the difference is pretty important.
Because if gov has lots of tax money, who decides where it goes? The corporation with the most lobbying power?
Ultimately the problem will be that no matter what you do, you probably won't get it right unless you effectively cap wealth (because realistically you can't make a judgement call on what is too much / too little tax).

I feel your pain. Got rid of my fine working samsung s6 because the battery was so shit. A shame because it was a good phone other wise. Now it's in the drawer for just that reason.

I've had access to one and used it for a while. It is quite nice but it was version 1, and the image area was small. Could not imagine 2 hours, my neck gets bad. Would like to try ML2.

This happened with my 1070. They sent me some thermal pads and had me download a different bios for the gpu. Now that im thinking about it there is probably a reason that card died.... F

No I just want power until the end of the day.
My current phone had a 3200mah battery. And 2 years on in probably looking at 2800mah and it hardly makes it to the afternoon.
It’s like planned obsolescence but because you can’t use your phone a whole day anymore.

Ah, yes… unlike those clean car batteries that are totally not destructive to the environment.

Newsflash: countries have issues with other countries all the time. Now look into Iran and Saudi Arabia. Little bigger differences there.
All you’re doing is trying to defend the indefensible by trying to say “but look at all these other places that also do some less bad stuff!”
doesn’t change Saudi Arabia being deplorable. Guess when they got rid of slavery.
