How the Internet of Things Is Transforming Supply Chain Management ...

If I had to estimate the amount of time I spend looking at a screen I think most people older than me would be sick and maybe some of my fellows peers may think of it as too much but, I've grown up with technology as I have matured the technology that we use has become more refined; many people say that we need to live in the now and not spend so much time online but that isn't the case for me because without technology I wouldn't be the person I am today. Now I know that the internet has it's downsides especially the stories of cyberbullying, I know that it is a real problem the a lot of people suffer from but for my story the internet actually helped me. You see if I were to describe the type of relationship that I have with the internet I would have to say it's that friend that no matter what happens they will always be there for you; I say this because my younger school life kinda sucked I was always bouncing around from friend group to friend group because everyone eventually left me and I was also bullied a lot, I wasn't the type of kid to talk about the problems I had so I always acted like everything was fine, but it sucked and the only thing that helped me get through it all was the internet. From youtube to gaming I felt like I was supposed to be there, and as I grew up I realized that there are other just like me and that's how I've made my friends either from meeting someone in person that has the same story as me or talking with someone online that has the same interests. So though many people talk about how bad the internet is and how mean people are I have nothing but love for the internet because it was there for me when I needed it.

For this blog post I thought I would discuss my experience with companies handling my online information and what my thoughts about it are. Like many of my generation my entire life is online, and if that is good or bad is a whole different story but like so many I have an email, I have a twitter, I have an Instagram and I also give my information away to a ton of game development companies because I spend almost all of my free time either playing games or watching them. Thankfully for all my years I have yet to have a problem with my information being leaked or misused by another company which is pretty lucky because gaming companies have security breaches all the time. For instance when I was younger I used to play on Sony's console Playstation but during my third or so year in elementary school I switched to Microsoft's Xbox 360 because all of my friends had it, this was very fortunate for me because a couple years later in 2011 Sony was hacked and 77 million Playstat

VR

On March 23rd, 2020 Half Life: Alyx released on steam for VR so as every review is praising this game for the innovative take on VR I  thought that for week 12s blog post, since we are discussing VR I thought that I would take about VR since it’s still pretty new and only getting better. In 2010 the first innovative VR headset was created and it was called the Oculus , since it was so new there weren't many games out for it and the games that were, weren’t too exciting. Then recently we have seen more VR headsets and games; with these new headsets and games more developers found ways to make VR not only easier for the player to use but also more complex in the stories and gameplay. I personally don’t have a VR headset though I have seen many people play VR games like the ever so popular Beat Saber. I think that VR became a really popular item when it first came out because many people love video games and this was just the newest way to experience them, it was fresh. I honestly
