    yeah, the way I look at it: VR has happened. The vive/index generation of pc grunt behind vr gaming made it worth it. Quest 2/3 are great headsets too - buuuuuuuttt…

    as can be pointed out for so many things, Meta has ruined it for everyone by pouring in billions to make… diddly squat, then retreating to AI and throwing their hands up because their thrashing and flailing never made a multibillion profit.

    slow and steady - that’s how new tech advances. not whatever the hell meta did. god, damn, did they waste geometric shittons of funding

      I watched TechAltar video on th facebook company, being mostly still owned by zuck, he really can took the risk from doing something big and then fail. and they now chasing gen AI stuff.

      I also feel Apple tried something like metaverse with Vision Pro. Expecting people to use it as a device that they’d use in day-to-day activities, sometimes look dystopian.

      But I’ve only seen few videos of people the Vision Pro on the street, and it was only viral when it was released. I don’t live in the US to see if people really do that.
