Right right, that was one use of teletype.
- Comment on The waiting is killing me 1 week ago:
Teletype, not text-to-speech.

I remember ICQ fondly, but I guess I’m too young or didn’t inhabit the same tech niches you do.
To me, ending a typed message with “qq” or “QQ” is for teletype systems that lacked length and special characters, so it helped if you alphanumerically stated that your message was an interrogative, which wound up being “qq,” presumably two for certainty it wasn’t a typo or a word ending in Q.
E.g. “THERE” could mean “I am there” and “THERE QQ” could mean “Are you there?”

Q.Q I can understand, qq I cannot.
- Comment on The waiting is killing me 2 weeks ago:
Who uses qq instead of question marks? I’ve only ever seen old school cops do that.

Right, and I’m saying that’s not due to the VR, it’s due to the moving around.
- Comment on Steam Frame Release 2 weeks ago:
Fair enough, but that’s kinda independent of VR.

Depends on the comfort factor for the individual user+device. If it’s not a good fit for you, it’s going to be exhausting pretty quick.

Did you make a new account?
I blocked one of yours because your comments are always rage-bait drivel and I’m not 13 any more so I don’t find the funny:rude ratio good enough to waste my time with you.
