New research suggests that our universe has no dark matter
  • My understanding of dark energy is a little different. As I understand it, we figured gravity pulls things together, right? So everything should be kinda slowly falling back together from the big bang. It was theorized to end in a 'big crunch' where the universe collapses back and then explodes again in a cycle.

    Only when they tried to measure how fast distant objects were moving relative to us, they found that things were still moving away from each other. More than that, the farther away things were, the faster they were moving. Meaning distant objects were accelerating.

    Acceleration requires energy, but we don't know the mechanism behind this, or where the energy comes from. Hence, dark energy.

  • You would think that with all that demographic data and spying on everything they'd have a clue, but it's like they've not been using it to make products better at all. It's like they're finding out just exactly how awful something has to be until we complain.

  • John Carmack's Take on Mixed Reality
  • Mixed reality has great practical applications, such as projecting studs and inside wall components on a surface so you know where to not put a hole.

    These applications could help justify buying a headset in general, pushing folks that want one for gaming additional reasons to justify it.

    So... there's a roundabout way it could help gaming.
