A lot of people are wondering why Bigscreen is making their own headset - the short answer is Apple. Apple's XR device has TV watching & monitors as their #1 use case & Meta will have their own solution too. The only way for them to survive is custom hardware they control.

Relive your memories in XR... I was lucky enough to provide feedback for this app in its early stages, and so delighted to see how far it's come! What do you think? Exciting innovation, or creepy? (And yes, I know about that Black Mirror episode...)

I #NeRF’ed my high school alma mater. Denver East is modeled after Independence Hall and consistently ranks as one of the best public schools in America. Birthplace of Earth, Wind, & Fire, it dominates at Football, Basketball, Conlaw, Model UN, and student activism. Luma AI +

tante IS NO LONGER IN THIS NAZI BAR. WHY ARE YOU? If there is a crime against the climate it's writing misinformation-rich hit-pieces on Bitcoin which even WOTSP acknowledges Bitcoin can "help meet our climate targets" when mined using vented methane. NY Times have tied themselves in knots using marginal accounting to create

They also avoid comparing bitcoin mining energy usage to industries and bitcoin-related emissions to industries. That’s because both are relatively minor in those comparisons. So The New York Times will avoid. Look at tobacco… where’s the outrage?

“They” is NYT. The cheapest energy is free - like spare #GreenEnergy at occasional use properties (eg 2nd homes) that has no value in a state with regulations like #NC

Was there a single piece of information in NYTimes' #BTC article that was not cherry-picked out of context to create a story where there was no story to tell? If there was, I can't see it Even the "prices have gone up in Texas" angle is no more than average US price increase

Bitcoin mining is the gateway, and model, for green computing. Especially for small scale utilization of spare free electricity.

#NC Governor Roy Cooper at NC Energy Conference of North Carolina hosted by NC CleanTech Center. I am here with my startup Stillhouse Compute - green compute from spare free green energy. Chilling it out with spring water. Keeping habitat for bears, bobcats, etc. #NCEnergy2023 #ncpol

Cryptominers hope they can find a second life by turning their mining operations into AI farms ‘Hive BlockChain bought $66 million worth of GPUs from Nvidia for its HPC endeavors and is projected to make about $98 million in revenue by the end of 2024.” pcgamer.com/cryptominers-h…
