Our new TV came with 3D, but no glasses, and we're not in any way inclined to figure out if the glasses for the old telly work, as we used those once to watch Gravity, thennever touched them again in 3 years.

For immersion VR will be the way forwards - for "ooh purdy" you need HDR. I've been rewatching the Grand Tour in full 4K HDR, far more jaw dropping than 3D ever was.

The trouble with VR is the chicken and the egg circle. Its too expensive and has very limited software, which makes it difficult to justify buying into it and there isn't the user base to encourage development.
Paint it silver and put a fruit logo on it. People will pay thousands then! :)

The big difference between VR and 3D is that VR has uses beyond entertainment. It may take time but as costs come down it's only going to get more popular. I doubt it will become as ubiquitous as TVs until we get to holodeck levels of technology and I don't know whether VR or AR will become more established, but it's definitely here to stay.

Blimey. Looks like they might actually have located some of the nuclear fuel at Fukushima. Might help with decomissioning in the long run if we mange to invent the technology that can pick it up and take it somewhere else.

Current (rising) cost and time estimates put the cleanup at about 200 billion dollars and 40 years. Dependent on us being able to invent stuff that can survive the radiation long enough to clear it.

But still. 200 billion dollars. *Boggles*

Good 3D coupled with good colors gives a very deep cinematic experience in my experience.

Dick move by the guy.

Not really, winding up ridiculous people is a decent enough hobby. If they are going to give these morons a platform to spout their idiocy then it should be tempered by someone taking the piss out of them.

It's fun, for sure, but it gives the same result as winding up Islam by drawing caricatures of the prophet - pissed off people. Ignore them or take a debate, no need to wind up for comedic effect, we have Trump for that purpose, and I'm expecting Mr Mahr to do a great job with that.

They don't want a debate. They just want to rant about imagined OUTRAGE. They should stick to the twitter echo chamber, its chock full of similarly minded air sacks.

The trouble with SJWs, Libtards or snowflakes (Whatever you want to call them) is that there is just no reasoning with them, they have this warped idea in their head and just go with it and they just aren't happy until they have told everyone about their plight, imagined (usually) or not.

I think many are open to debate, just some are stupidly narrowminded and should just be ignored.

Edit: Thinking of grabbing some takeaway, but what?! There's so much food..

One of the funniest "you've got no right" videos I've seen.
True, but to be fair - why bother? Surely he's got something better to do with his life than troll the uneducated.

I mean, you can do that shit on the internet. Why bother going somewhere to do it? :)

So the wife has this new policy when eating out, it makes me cringe a bit, she just walks to the front of the queue when people are waiting for tables
and tells the guy we booked over the phone, much searching goes on, they double check the name and then give us a table anyway.
This has worked four times on the run, the last time was hilarious, real posh place by us, full to the brim, people waiting.
Gives her first name..he asks the second...'oh here it is, you booked for four, just the two of you?'
Straight to the table.
We were both lying to each other on that one.

Quite dishonest of you and against the britishness of queueing. If everyone did thatit would be chaos.

Why not phone in advance and book really.

I see Peter Andre tweeted that he wanted to give Trump a chance...back tracked moments later as the Force turned upon him.

BUt he goes along with it. Not like he calls her out when she does it

If he calls her shenanigans he´ll portray himself as some holier-than-thou and won't get any exciting aftermath-sex. Go the cuck-route tbh!

Still doesn't make it right. It's not that hard to book a table at a restaurant.

I would call my wife a tosser for such actions. Queueing is one of those things that you just have to put up with, its the simplest way to keep order.

Only chavs try to jump queues.
