I don't even know (or care) who they are but I'd be willing to bet a lot of money on that being an uncharitable characterization of what happened.

I'm not sure about the best way of handling it. The tweet was unprofessional, but it did explain what was going on and had a visual aid in the picture.

If someone wrote an article debunking it, posting the link to that article would've been more professional. But I doubt something like that would be enough to justify an article.

I think if he was asked about it, he'd tell you no.

My thoughts: I think it's a good correction because this is the same type of "journalism" we would point to when talking about how liberal rags are full of shit.

Trump, himself, has been the target of such dishonest reports and his supporters should know that.

Towards the end, Tucker says that the show will be hosted on Twitter but, if they censor him, he will take the show elsewhere.

"That's why Lindsey Graham was so attracted to (Zylensky)"

🤣

Not sure if that was intentional or not, but I love the double entendre (Lindsey is very likely gay)

This is a clear violation of his civil rights. I hope he's suing.

EDIT: people are shitting on them in this tweet: https://nitter.nl/ReadingPolice1/status/1664047654672760835

There's no real "voting with your money" in the browser wars because they're all cucked, although I know for a fact there are better alternatives to Opera for most people because it's based on Chromium, and virtually every browser aside from Firefox and Safari are built on Chromium.

If people really wanna boycott, find out how they get their funding and boycott those companies.

A quick search for Opera reveals they're funded by:

  • Search Providers (Google, Yandex, and DDG),
  • Partnerships with OEMs, OS manufacturers, and UI owners
  • Advertising Partners
  • Other sources

Even a boomer could tell you that a smartphone had far more utility and usefulness than this.

This is just for movies, video games, and maybe FaceTime (if you're okay with a digital avatar of yourself).

And even the world's first smart phone fit in the palm of your hand and could be carried in your pocket. This requires you strapping it to your head and a carrying case if you want to take it with you.

Not just legit criticism of lesson plans. Parents are going to be complaining that their Johnny doesn't get more attention.

If it were a college, you'd have a point. But it's not college, where a lecture is given and students are expected to to do everything on their won. If a child is failing or doesn't understand the subject material, a teacher has a responsibility to get involved and help them out.

Parents are going to complain if their children get disciplined.

If they don't have a case against the teacher, no disciplinary action against the teacher would be taken. If they do have a case, then disciplinary action against the teacher is warranted.

It's not like children don't talk to their parents about what goes on in the classroom, whether they're telling the truth or not. Many kids have smart phones in class and also record what goes on, but only for stuff that they care about.

Also, it's not like teachers don't deal with bad parents as it is.

Worst case scenarios: cameras wouldn't change anything.

Best case scenario: cameras would tell us who's lying and who's telling the truth.

It's the same thing with cops wearing body cams and that's been one of the best things that's ever happened with law enforcement, for both the public and the police officers.

I don't see the advantage of standing at the kitchen island doing work compared to a desk.

And having something strapped to your head and weighing you down.

A desk and monitor is a much better option for getting work done.

And if you need portability, just get a laptop or tablet PC.

A teacher who's doing their job won't care.

A teacher that's indoctrinating children will absolutely protest, because they want to manipulate children and you're taking that away from them.

If teachers leave because they're not "comfortable", there's a high probability that they were indoctrinating children and don't deserve to be "teaching" children.

At the end of the day, for public school teachers, they're funded by tax payers and, therefore, beholden to tax payers. They do not enjoy the same privileges as private institutions.

Mildly impressed that they put their money where there mouth is instead of doing the boilerplate virtue signal.

I'm interested to see how the black community responds to this, assuming it ever reaches them. I think that guy Tariq Nasheed (an anti-white with social conservative views) would be able to amplify it and get his followers to shit on Opera.

Well, I've been watching more videos and it seems that you get a digital avatar when using FaceTime. Here's a video with a timestamp.

I'm not sure about how FaceTime works, but I'm guessing it's possible through the headset.

And how the fuck does FaceTime work? Is there a camera inside the goggles so the person you're talking to gets to stare up your nostrils?

lol that'd be hilarious XD

I don't know how it works but I'd imagine you'd still need a phone/laptop/etc (which will also be your camera) and they get to see you with that ridiculous headset on

IMO they all suck.

The future of widespread VR adoption will be resemble glasses.

Very few people are going to be walking around with a brick strapped around their head that also obscures your peripheral vision.

We probably won't see it in our lifetime, but that's where it needs to be, IMO.

The most likeliest solution to get approved and have an immediate effect is cameras with a private live stream for parents and then store the recordings for about 30 days or so.

Students won't be on camera for obvious reasons, just the teachers.

In all seriousness, this is poorly marketed. You look like an idiot for wearing snorkeling goggles in front of other people, so that's completely out of the picture.

With that said, it's pretty neat if you're by yourself. The virtual workstation is pretty dope, but you're probably not going to want to wear that thing while getting work done, so a monitor will serve you better. IMO they'll probably best for watching movies, but you're not going to watch movies alone so you'll need at least another set, but possibly 3-5 depending on how many people you plan to invite. But at $3500 a pop, this is definitely geared towards rich people.

Lastly, that song they chose is frigging horrible. Just had to get that out there.
