    It isn’t any more isolating than reading a newspaper. You can take both off in a second.

    Or do you mean putting it away?

      I wouldn’t know, I’m not old enough to have ever read a newspaper. I do know that compared to every other display I’ve used, putting goggles over my face is much more isolating.

      But that pales to the other isolating problem, which is that there’s no way to easily watch something with someone. With my phone we just… both look at the phone. With VR we need to get them another VR headset, and an account, then install an app and then, finally, I can show my mom a three second cat video.
