Lemmy being Lemmy, it immediately jumped to ideological purity. As is everybody else on Lemmy, I'm painfully aware of its stance of "car bad". And I don't even disagree, but the comparison clearly was between cars and autonomous cars. A properly implemented distributed autonomous system will be better and safer than human drivers, and that was my point. We are not getting rid of cars anytime soon, so might as well make them less bad in the meantime.

But autonomous cars are a good thing. It's the execution that's lacking.

Careful, you might summon John Oliver.

What happened to the piefed account?

It used to be a really popular subject of discussion in normal-people-internet a couple years ago when it was released.

You might not be nice, but then at least be kind.

I'm pretty sure you guys just took the bait. This is either satire or ragebait.

Yeah, I've played it using my Oculus Quest 1, too. It is the most game-like VR game, as opposed to most VR games that are more mini-games. But I've definitely spent more time in those mini-games than Alyx.

In addition to everything said, I'm pretty sure it was Oculus and John Carmack who did most of the work on getting VR to where it is.

I already suck figuratively. That good enough?

How much longer do I wait?
