    @george-k said in Hey, Expanse Geeks!: @doctor-phibes said in Hey, Expanse Geeks!: I've been watching it again with the VR goggles. Details? That sounds like a hell of a lot of fun. I just bought some Oculus Quest 2 Goggles, primarily so I could play some of the VR games on the PC, but while I wait for the connection cable to arrive (it's a long story involving UPS) I've been using them to watch stuff on Amazon - essentially, the Amazon app simulates a big cinema screen. The technology isn't all the way there yet, but the Amazon app works pretty well, if you don't mind wearing the goggles. For $300, the technology has impressed me a lot. I suspect that in about 10 years it will be amazing. The goggles aren't the most comfortable things in the world, but they're fine for an hour or so at a time, and some of the VR videos are also quite impressive.

    Reading more closely the death penalty is under appeal. It’s the defense counsel’s duty to represent him as best he/she can. If the suit is heard it will be interesting to hear the court’s legal response.

    I remember "learning" as a kid, that if you tense up your arm when a mosquito is biting it, it will not be able to remove its stinger and will continue to suck blood until it burst, like the video above. I remember trying it. It did not work. All I had left was a very big scratching mosquito bite, and a mosquito that flew away with alot of my blood!!!

    That’s some utopia they created in Portland. A reminder of what all those “ideals” lead to. A life of strife.

    @jon-nyc said in Spring Ahead: Why is he reading it? I don’t get it. Yeah, neither do I. He's done routines where he reads a question and then rants away, but this was a pretty good rant on its own.
