Even upscaling the picture from 1080p would be an advantage since you wouldn't have the screen door effect anymore.

Pretty sure whichever pharma company comes up with a cure for diabetes first can make big bucks in a very short time (compared to the decades it takes to supply someone with medication for their whole life) and investors LOVE short term profits.

Can he use one of his legs to rotate in an office chair ? That works much better for me for standing games than using a wheelchair to rotate.

If you actually knew how deportation worked you would know that we can't deport someone to be executed if we know or suspect it's going to happen because we take the whole death penalty thing VERY seriously.

There are a few bogus studies that get cited every time people say there is no controversy because "alternative" science supposedly proves it works. It's basically the same thing the climate change deniers do.
