The co-working space thing always seemed like it was marketed more for "startups" and "founders" to work there for networking purposes and that kind of thing.

So like most things it only existed because of low interest rates and not actually a real thing that should exist.
Why do "co-working" when you can just go to a coffee shop like a normal person?

we’ve been kicked from our shared account but i’m not really sure i’m bothered about subscribing myself, mainly because netflix now has a firmly established reputation of abandoning shows after two seasons regardless of quality, and just has so much chaff to choose from it’s difficult to even find the good stuff in the first place, which is cancelled anyway

Apparently this is because of the way Netflix negotiated writers contracts the pay goes up after a show lasts longer than 2 seasons.

I will never forgive Netflix for making GBS threads out the turd that was season 3 of dark. So loving easy to see they had no writers on staff for it.

tech will never manage to make one of these that doesn't look loving stupid and that's why VR is a dead end

I'm still completely puzzled why all the VR trailers always have some dumb nerds looking like dorks in the vr gear. Sure, it's a challenge to show what your game would be like on a screen, but there must be a better way.

yeah one of the penultimate episodes with a rather crucial “dead end” just kind of happened with no build up or pay off?

Requiring the same reporting standards that other securities do would destroy the reasons anyone uses crypto (money laundering, tax evasion, buying drugs)

I think the 2 biggest reasons Binance doesn't want to register are:
1. KYC/AML: Requiring Binance to do the barest minimum level of due diligence before accepting cash from "customers" would cut significantly into their revenue
2. Order book transparency: Everyone knows crypto pricing is controlled by a few players, but Binance is also likely fabricating orders on top of that to influence pricing

The rose ave. parking lot at venice beach used to be filled with RVs that people lived in, but they'd get kicked out overnight & have to pay again to stay there each day. So they'd move to the residential side streets but once those were gentrified the libs in city council passed those ordinances the story mentioned.

You’re also not, Apple promises, isolated from people around you. The headset will display your eyes with a system called EyeSight, and if you’re in full VR, a glowing screen will obscure them to suggest you’re not available. It also creates a digital “persona” — basically a hyperrealistic avatar — by scanning your face.

the people who like VR for using stuff like VRChat (perverts I assume) seem to really like it but I just don't see it being unobtrusive enough to bridge the gap to regular people for that price. i'm sure some rich kids on Instagram will buy it and forget about it but i don't think this thing will succeed on a wide scale. who knows tho maybe the public is ready to throw away their screens so they can watch movie over wife's face instead

I do think that augmented reality vs VR is at least less stupid looking and more usable but you’d need the form factor of a pair of normal glasses for it to get widespread use.
