I think it's extremely ironic that as soon as we have technology to be able to have videos and phone calls with anyone at any time, it's become standard to text first and that everything should be done through text.

I've really come to like the record-a-message feature that I guess is in all modern messengers by now. It's like texting, except with voice. It's asynchronous, so

  • you can make a longer point (it's insane how much you can actually say in like, 3 minutes of audio) because you can't be interrupted
  • you can think about what exactly you want to say instead of having to come up with something sensible on the spot
  • it's persisted in a manner that people might actually hear it back (even if a regular meeting has been recorded, nobody goes back and listens to it)

but it's also audio, i.e.

  • you can add sublety and tone that is hard to put into text (particularly if you're unsure about what you're saying, talking is much more forgiving than text)
  • it's way faster to produce! This post which would have taken like 2 minutes of audio took me probably 10 minutes to type out on the phone (flipside is that text is way faster to consume)

We always have cams turned off and I don't quite get why, it makes it much easier to distract yourself with other poo poo.

from my (not first hand) experience, private schools are more likely to just give somebody a student that's failing an A than to kick them out for bringing down the average

I'd wager that which of these options is taken depends on the parents' economic and social background.

Woah at still being sensitive enough to notice certain applications being slower or faster than others. It's an all-perpuating slog, every tool takes 2 seconds to display 500 bytes of actual data, who cares if this other one takes 4, I don't care anymore, that's just the way she goes, buddy. It's progress they say.
Nothing matters, face to jira or embrace escapism by playing with your apple ][ or something.

it seems like a real problem to me but not one we've been able to solve so far

If the problem is walking around in VR, I recently was at this kind of place:



A big empty space, PC on the back, battery packs. Sensors on hand and feet. It works surprisingly well, like we could do a zombie shooter with some quick moving about and you don't run into other people at all. Of course there were a lot of elevator/train segments to simulate movement because the room was limited in size but otherwise this works.

My friends and I played this game in board game simulator as a drinking and yelling at each other game and we ended up making a deck of cards for it.

We ended up with a deck of like ~40 cards and all of them were super OP so the games never ended and eventually we gave up playing it

There's a variant called Dog in my country that uses regular cards and it's fun af.



There's also extra pieces for adding two more players.
