Guess what Tim Apple? No one wants them just like no one wanted your stupid headset that I honestly can't even remember what it was called.

Well I do want this, augmented/virtual reality is exactly the kind of shit I dreamt about as a kid during the 90's, and having a huge screen available anywhere I go is pretty fucking cool.

But yeah, I used a VR headset exactly once for like 5 minutes, and there's no way in hell I'd buy one from meta or apple. If Valve releases good XR/AR glasses I might consider it.

It sounds cool in theory, but modern tech companies aren't going to make what you wanted as a kid. Whatever they make will be heavily enshittified.

Hold on a second. For it to be enshittified, it has to be good at the beginning, and I highly doubt that’s possible.

Honestly in five minutes you didn't do basically anything in VR

I know, I meant that although I'm interested in the tech I've barely tried it.
