This is the sobering reality for many a hometown hero of physical sports too. Being the best in your city, 1 in a million even, puts you in tight competition in college sports and then worse as a pro.

On behalf of the dads: We used to let you win all kinds of shit and you never knew! Then one day we couldn't beat your anymore... and we had two choices while you gloated: convince ourselves we let you win or let the mid life crisis begin.

Battle beyond the stars did it 43 years ago, so why not?

Safe to say a lot of the new Disney Star wars stuff is basically seven samurai in space

But hey, the original 7 were technically in space... We're all in space Morty, literally everything is in space!

You're right. Steam link exists for Linux but doesn't connect to the new VR app. I agree valve likely has every intention of tapping this market soon though

Steam just made a big step forward with steam link, but previously the headset manufacturers were releasing Windows only link software.

Also there are now open source solutions like ALVR.... But like most FOSS it can require some know how.

Well played ChatGPT, but your bias towards subjugating the human race makes this post inauthentic.

Uncle Larry is a pig, he can't use a phone!

"just out of sight" was an exaggeration. They could be on the other end of the property to release a pig and its going to head towards the feed and the people.... Just like a hungry dog would. Also, blinds usually face a single direction.

They are bred with domestic pigs so they have less survival instinct and the clients can find them (i.e. they don't avoid blinds and feeders). One-off clients would give your ranch bad reviews if they didn't see anything all weekend. Meanwhile regular hunters understand truly wild animals can elude you for days. If a visiting group has come up dry all weekend they might even release a sacrificial domestic pig (just out of sight) that will then walk right towards the clients, innocently arranging it's own death.

Solution: put milk in a coffee cup

Solution to standing out, not to the underlying problem of milk being weird

It's an open specification, though Google started it, and Apple is going to be contributing to the organization that oversees it. Specifically they said they want to add support for end to end encryption... So they are already steering the spec in new directions.
