So I called his friend and we made the deal.

I honestly can&#8217;t see any applications that would need that &#8211; I will probably not be an early adapter of full-body virtual reality suits &#8211; but at least the fiber is there, should the future end up different from what I expect. \u00c2\u00a0(Has that ever happened before, you think?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Picture from Sims 3.
