  • two monitors and desk separators. So instead of spending $2000 per employee you spend $3500 but cram 3 where you used to fit only 1. Also, you can put windows with nice view and office decor in the VR so the office can now be in a basement with blank walls. You would save tons of money on real estate.

You either can tell that the same certificate was used 1000000 times in one day which means they are being tracked or you don't track it and one leaked cert can be used by all the minors in Spain. So it's either useless of bad for privacy.

This is exactly what will not happen. They clearly talking about different certificate. Read the article.

You know that those cases are often fabricated from the start and it's possible for a billionaire to bring a case in front of the Supreme Court without legally being involved in one? Not saying it's the case here but him not being directly involved doesn't mean his not behind the case.

Clearly you don't know what an office desk costs...

Can't wait to see people wearing those around the office. Thinking about it. if you remove the desk, monitors, keyboard, mouse and just sit down bunch of programmers next to each other with those goggles it can actually be cheaper for the company to run an office even at 3.5k per headset.

But if the recuses himself then the oil baron would have spent all his money for nothing. Surely, this can't happen.

But east Asian labour is cheap because of bad working conditions, weak workers' rights and no environmental protections.

Oh, I wasn't making a slippery slope argument. I meant that this is what should happen. We exported most of the devastating impact on the environment and the terrible working conditions to developing countries so that we can enjoy tons of crap we don't really need. If things we buy would reflect the actual costs we would have to limit how much we consume. Of course no one would like it.

[–] ExLisper@linux.community 21 points 2 years ago (5 children)

You could say that about everything. If you would account for all actual cost no one would fly, eat steaks, own 2 TVs or change phones every 2 years either. We would buy things that last 10-20 years and replace them only when they are broken. As we used to...

Only if you make it one time thing as in you get your insurance payment only if you use it to rebuild somewhere else.

No, I just made it myself. It's brand new and shiny.
