@mtgreenee I'm genuinely intrigued and have questions; 1. Who are 'they'?
2. Where are they?
3. How do they do it?
4. Why do they do it?
5. Can they please do something to control it in the UK?
6. Can they also control minds?
7. What about earthquakes?

@elonmusk What's your point?

For anyone in the UK, If you text ‘SHOUT’ to 85258 when you are in a dark place or suicidal, a trained crisis volunteer will text you back. This is great If you find talking on the phone challenging. It’s completely free 24/7.
Please RT you never know who might need this support

I basically need the week of my life just to keep the lights on right now, so if anyone at all wants a commission of ANYTHING at all, then contact me ASAP, please. And if you can spread the word then that would be great too as my social media reach is near zero now. Thanks guys x

@MancRedDevil1 Ha, nope, I can't think of how it could get any worse. And would you look at that, I'm taking your post as it was intended. Great to hear your lad is doing so well! Plenty of years ahead to get him playing in the better shade of red 🙂👹

@Ollie_Davis I don't know buddy, given the furore surrounding scrapping replays, Coventry getting to the final would've been perfect PR for the FA wouldn't it? Your boys would at least put up a more organised fight than our mob 🤔

@DeeDeeEHughes I'm so pleased you've done your 1st draft!!! Go you 😀❤️

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@FrankLuntz If it's good for the goose...

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes @HITRECORD Happy to oblige and hopefully trigger different trains of thought.
Absolutely thank @HITRECORD 😊

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Sounds viable to me, as a testing environment. I would just try and make sure people wouldn't watch it and think "how would anyone actually play that?"
Be creative but anchored in reality, especially if you're not going hundreds of years into future 🙂

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes And walls would have windows.. maybe game cubes installed in gardens/garages.
If you had screens and headsets, they need to be compatible, so headset would need to be transparent. Just thinking sci-fi, future, perhaps wrap around glasses would work?

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Just spitballing 🙂

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Have an idea, then analyse and contemplate the pitfalls of it. Keeps it reasonable as after all, if there are downsides, it doesn't catch on and money doesn't get invested in it. Amend the idea to fix the issues 🙂

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Just aware that people in VR headsets lose balance lol. And if it were a fighting game, for example. People knock stuff over all the time lol

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Hmm, no reason that screens couldn't be 'unrolled' and why not 4 walls. But then why goggles? Or room could be an immersive game cube with every surface being a screen incl' floor & ceiling. Goggles perhaps more like glasses to provide the surrounding 3D interactions?

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Got to be easier than strapping on a bunch of sensors hasn't it 🙂 Although, and I hesitate after the PlayStation and xbox kinect systems... body tracking cameras might be an option BUT wouldn't provide haptic feedback...

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes Lol I wouldn't claim to know about such things. A body suit would seem to be the way ahead. Think sensor placement to capture movement mapping for things such as Football games, or Andy Serkis for Gollum's movement.

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes For a hologram video call, yes. Further down the line, or your designers could be working on it, holograms could project any image you like? E.g. be in your living room but portrayed via hologram as anything: a Knight, alien, victorian gent, animal 🙂

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes I think all 3 are reasonable and justified. Body sensors being haptic too. Totally submersive 🙂

[What would the robot do? @andyoverhead]

@DeeDeeEHughes I think for that, more akin star wars style... a base on which the hologram 'stands' as opposed to screens?
