I will echo some of the other sentiments.

Meta sells a lot of their tech at a loss. You are not buying a VR headset with just your dollars. You are taking a huge kit of cameras and sensors hooked up to the world’s most advanced internet-connected telemetry and strapping it to your face. The data it gleans is how you’re covering a large portion, if not the majority, of the cost.

In my opinion, a PS5 and PSVR2 is the best way into VR for most people right now. I have that and a Valve Index and while the Index is awesome, it’s pretty dated and fiddly and while my computer runs it pretty well, catching up to more modern tech will cost me $2000 in upgrades and the fuss associated with building/upgrading/buying/migrating a PC.

I’m hoping Valve releases their rumored standalone headset sometime before the end of the world.

Bro looks like he aged twelve years in the past four.

Ugh. I hate how right you are.

I’m sorry, are there any different dystopias available other than this one? This one is stupid and I’d like to make an exchange if I can.

I guess you can always make it shittier?

I never understood the appeal of Threads anyway. Like, who leaves Xitter because it’s toxic garbage and goes to something owned by Meta, who practically invented this particular flavor of toxic garbage?

They’re not even hiding the enshittification strategy. They’re practically teaching you the principles up front.

“First we trap you, then we exploit you. Duh.”

Guess they saw somebody on TV say it to a kid once or something.

Wait, your shitty, morally decrepit parents told you they were proud of you?

I only got the shitty, morally decrepit part and didn’t get the supportive part. Mine just wanted me to be their clone.

Good note. My edit, based on your feedback:

Tom Homan – Stupid, shitty, greedweasel who will sell the country out for self-enrichment

Elon Musk – Stupid, shitty, greedweasel who will sell the country out for self-enrichment

Pete Hegseth – Stupid, shitty, greedweasel who will sell the country out for self-enrichment

Kristi Noem – Stupid, shitty, greedweasel who will sell the country out for self-enrichment

I see Star Control anything and I upvote.

There’s no moral dilemma. It’s just pure moral compromise.

Counterpoint: everything should just submit to the John Munch Cinematic Universe.
