So is Chux the new boss?
Rule with an iron fist imo.
Granite dick IMHO.
Absentee manager
This is less a comment on oculus than some sociology, but I think it's worth thinking on: Do we need a device that will makes us even more disconnected from being alive? You strap this on and you're no longer part of the conversation in the room. You're furniture.
People like to escape their routine lives. Like with every other type of escape, you should exercise moderation.
Speaking of moderation, as much as I'm excited about VR, I have to wonder how harmful it will be on the eyes. It seems like it might be worse than staring at a PC monitor or a book due to the closer proximity.
The kind of people who would buy this right now are probably headphone-wearing dudes that already, when not hanging out with others, go to pretty big lengths for immersion and close themselves off in some kind of dedicated PC area. I know that describes me, lol.
The type of people who post pictures wearing their Google Glass with pride IMO.Quote:

I'll wear a doofy-ass headset for the sake of entertainment, but I'll wear it when I'm not in public and don't have to be interacting with anybody.
I wear my headset when playing PC games, but only when I know I'm not going to be needed for anything. Generally after Lily has gone to bed, and when Steph is doing whatever she does at night. I'd assume the same would be said for the Oculus.
