Ohh no not this money, this is set aside for buying every other corporation ever.

I think if we cooperate like our gentle cousins the Bonobos for a century or two we'd basically have Star Trek. Instead we (Americans) are spending 3x the cost of housing the homeless on hostile architecture and armed goons to raid/destroy their camps with the aim of making our metally ill & vulnerable as invisible as possible- while we slaughter animals we know are able to suffer & grieve as powerfully as any of our beloved dogs, en masse, at absurd environmental cost, washed and neatly sealed from any evident cruelty so they can be consumed or spoil, 50/50 with hardly a thought.

The concept of cooperation transcends any flawed man. We can do better than this but continuing to enable the psychopaths that got us here seems beyond impractical.

Not for VR, unfortunately. Have a valve index collecting dust, streaming to the quest 2 via ALVR runs better.

Skip in 5 seconds? No. I'll trek 7 deserts, gleefully abandoning everything and everyone I ever knew before you will subject me to this.
