👏 for providing flexible season tickets for those of us who don't commute every day.. Serious 👎 for the incredibly minimal savings %21 a day on a flexible ticket vs 59% if you buy a weekly.... Boo #SouthernRailuk (though can't imagine it is just them so Boooo UK Rail!!)
How has your research practice changed as a result of the pandemic (or not)? If you are involved in user studies and XR and have experience conducting user studies in XR remotely please consider contributing to our special issue: frontiersin.org/research-top…
