this has been true of USB basically since its 1.0 release. I have micro and mini usb cables, some can charge phones and some cannot. Some can charge my ps3 controllers and some cannot. I bought a usb-a male to usb-a male at some point. Never got it working with anything.
Sounds like you have a problem with USB and are just noticing it now with usb-c.
I've never had issues with VR even with 8hour sessions. I have an HTV Vive original pre-order. There were some very early games with bad locomotion systems that could cause motion sickness but I haven't seen any of those since the very very early days of VR. There are people who have spent 24hr+ in VR without issue. Not sure what you are basing your comments on.
Modern VR standards are even better than what it was with my older PC setup (GTX 970 + vive). Way larger FoV and better PPI screens are making a big difference
wouldn't that just be beef soup? Tea basically takes something and soaks it in hot water for a long time. If you are using meat products i assume it automatically become soup (since thats basically what soup is)
Comparing a bridge or a plane to a nuclear meltdown seems pretty disingenuous. If a plane crashes at an airport that does not prevent the airport from being accessible by humans for 50+ years. If a bridge collapses that does not prevent you from building a new one at that location for 50+ years.
I don't think anything they described applies only to 1st generation plants. They all still hold true today. The thing with coal and fossil fuel power is that there was not enough planning of the entire system. The end result was the production of gases directly into the environment.
If we want to go down the nuclear route we need to design a well oiled closed looped system that can completely handle poking without any easily recoverable problems. There are many ideas in the pipeline such as molten-salt reactors. These take time to test, validate, and integrate into a cohesive system.
The biggest worry for me is shortcuts and penny-saving. How many parts of this system will be skipped do to being "to costly", "not financially feasible", etc...
couldn't they focus on developed an autonomous/robotic helicopter rather then a drone? I don't think it can run 24x7 since it needs to refuel/recharge.
Personally I think the new Vive Flow looks awesome (physically). I'm doubtful it'll be a good headset because of the specs. The refresh rate is only 75Hz. Everyone is aware that 90Hz is the minimum required to remove motion sickness for most humans. Phone as a controller, I'm doubtful this will work well. HTC Focus 3 still seems like the headset to beat
I wouldn't say the pixel 4 is better. My Pixel XL still works great and has unlimited google photos upload. All pixels afterwards have a time limited google photo upload (photos can only live there for so long before counting against your data limit). My Pixel 3 has been a PoS since I got it and only gotten worse over time. For example after a software update the usb-c port is no longer reversible, it only charges if cable is inserted in specific direction. I hear pixel 4 has similar Quality issues as pixel 3.
Brother makes good hardware but bad software. They recently gave up support on newer versions MacOS. They have an android printing driving with 100+ reviews @ 1.X out of 5 stars. It not longer works on newer android phones. I've tried for years to get my networked brother multifunction laster printer working with my chromebook to no avail. If it somewhat works its printing things slightly incorrectly, running out of memory, etc...
