...Because those are the hallmarks that Time magazine is known for.
How silly of us.

Ugh, this cover.
Dad: "Fantastic_planet, you like computers, why can't you come up with something like this kid"
And i believe the article said something about email going extinct because teens just use facebook messages.
Except there will probably be a tutorial lasting 20 hours of just washing cars. "First lesson antitrop-san wax on, wax off."

This made me wonder what it'd be like if news outlets covered other media like they cover VR.
Film: "These men just sat still in moderately uncomfortable chairs for TWO HOURS. And they *paid* for it!"
Music: "Woman puts strange device on her head and convulses to what is only known by music fans as the 'Beat'"
Art: "Can you believe people paid $100,000...for THIS (picture of blank canvas and unused paint)"
Architecture: "You wouldn't believe how much they pay this guy to draw lines on a large piece of paper for days!"

Time magazine strongly associates computer programmers and bare feet.
I get the impression that these guys came in wearing sandals and the TIME photographer was just like "Okay, you look too ratty in those; just go barefoot, it worked for Steve Jobs"

This is awkward.
Heard it was written by Joel Stein and now I'm not surprised. He seems to enjoy pissing people off.

tl;dr he also wrote about how the Jews control Hollywood and how he was annoyed about how a large immigration of Indians changed his hometown.

Wow. Even still images make Palmer Luckey come across as an utter toss pot.
I mean, it's Joel Stein.
Really? My cardboard experience was awful. I didn't expect much, but I was still disappointed. I really want proper VR, though.
I have a hyper-evolved sense of both. Would you like to explain the humor and the irony found in the article, and how it benefits...anything at all?
No, it's cringeworthy. Particularly combined with the article excerpt posted earlier in this thread. VR has a massive perception issue to deal with and if it's not properly handled it will never go mainstream.

This cover is proof that regardless of how much money you have you're going to make some pretty bad decisions when you're 22 years old.
Yeah, I can't relate.
But the nerd speaks in normal sentences....NORMAL!
I agree.
LMAO
You know shit hit the fan when Gerstmann takes time to write something up. Damn.

Just like the existence of porn is embarrassing for the movie platform?

Christ that's awful
And books, PCs, text messages, DVDs, the internet, digital cameras...
Same here. It's either that or the "sex scene" from Demolition Man.
I remember thinking that game in First Kid looked pretty neat, though.

Well, the existence of tentacle porn had certainly created a stereotype for anime.
