@georgetakei were not headed there. We are there. The numbers may be smaller, but the mechanics and intent and execution are identical, and *currently happening*.

Framing this as where we “are headed” is frog boiling framing. We’re in the pot. We’re being boiled.

@iFixit @FediFollows I’d love to see features on “things you don’t think you can fix, but probably can.”

@dangillmor Also a reminder that if, for instance, you build a commercially successful business that happens to compete against one of the oligarchs’ businesses, you can expect them to weaponize government and just take whatever you built. Or destroy it to protect their interests.

@arstechnica that’s great… but there’s no demand for VR headsets. No commercial demand, little industrial demand. There just aren’t many use cases where VR is actually good.

So cool, more headset manufacturers… but also, good luck to them trying to find an audience that doesn’t exist.

VR has to fix locomotion, nausea, and comfort problems first.
