Your comparison between phones and VR/AR is reasonable but a bit different as when windows phones were discontinued, Microsoft had pretty much lost the phone os race. Also the windows phones sucked, I’ve used them…

IMO microsoft gave vr/ar a fair chance. They might have been early, but if we are eg. a full decade off must buy VR, then it might not be worth waiting.

I found steamdb.info. According to them Godot seems to be growing steadily.

If you want a small phone, then look for rugged ones. There are a lot of options with screen sizes all the way down to sub 4". Finding one with android 12 or 13 might take some work, but they are out there.

My bad. You don’t need a rocket to launch stuff.

I mean you could stay in space, if you were to reach escape velocity. Heat might be an issue though.

Tweaking the nuke to achieve a specific orbit might prove to be difficult. Also it’s not like Blue Origin has nukes right?

That’s a job for the parents though isn’t it? And for early teenagers people seem to forget what positive influence the internet could have on their lives. Eg. many IT workers started fiddling around with stuff when they were quite young.

Fortunately the nuclear reactor can be operated for >50 years :)

Can’t critizise something that has never been tried! Also we already got a comment critizising capitalism as a counter argument :D
