  • How have they affected government policy, beyond Roblox probably causing some laws being passed about exploitation and protection of minors?

    You have a point, I think the big thing FB failed to capitalize on is that someone who wants to use ChatVR or Roblox has to go into chatVR or roblox. FB had an opportunity to build an entire ecosystem they control, and they failed to get anyone inside of it.

    I genuinely have no idea how they managed to spend that much money and not get a single decent app. Horizons literally looked like a tech demo someone slapped together for a gamejam or something.










  • ICE agents aren’t going to quit over doxxing, they’re the type to jerk off over the idea of someone trying to hurt them or their family.

    If America was going to rise up, seeing ice agents get got in their own home would be inspirational, in the same way a burning police station was inspiration in 2020; showing people that you’re not powerless does infinitely more to bring people out than seeing a million people march for 6 hours and go home having accomplished nothing.


  • Again, what’s more chaotic, pigs fearing for themselves and their family or pigs not fearing for themselves and their family?

    Putin has nothing to gain from this, the state department or just random fascists with money to spend on a botnet do.

    If some Russian dissidents published a list of Russian FBI equivalent’s agent’s addresses, would the US (or even just any non-fascist with technical knowledge and time) try to take it down, or make sure it’s distributed as widely as possible?

    “Russia is helping the US do what the US does because their evil and bad and hate freedom” is the equivalent of “Russia blew up their own pipeline”.

    Putin being evil and bad is true, but it’s directly against Russia’s interests and in the US’s interest to take down the list.


  • completely predictable outcome of an obviously stupid fucking idea

    Nah, it could have worked if Meta started by

    1. sell the hardware to businesses and schools at a loss, with a requirement users be able to take the sets home.

    2. Publish standards to allow all apps to have multiplayer and compatible full body avatars, same control scheme, movement, etc.

    3. buying up VRChat and any other apps with a large user base, refactoring them for compatibility.

    4. Develop and release free multiuser apps, from virtual office/meetings to virtual movies to home decor.

    Somehow FB didn’t even try to exploit the same effects that forced everyone into Apple, MS, and FB.

    To be clear, its for the best, the end result of FB giving out millions of headsets at a loss would have been making even more money selling much more precise user data, and virtual nikes and shit.



  • Damn, is that why Putin told his puppet Biden to bring Democracy to Palestine and Ukraine, and his puppet Obama to spread Democracy to Libya and Syria, and his puppet George W Bush to bring Democracy to Iraq and Afghanistan, and his puppet Clinton to bring Democracy to Yugoslavia and so on?

    Its kinda weird when libs blame foreigners for America doing the most American thing possible.

    Also the American people neutralizing feds on their own is more chaotic than ice continuing to haul people to camps unimpeded.




  • Yes, if you know anyone in the military, the best possible thing you can tell them is get your disability rating BEFORE you get out. If anyone tells you it’s fine to wait or they’ll help you after you get out or whatever, holy shit ignore them.

    If they say “But I don’t have any disability”, tell them “Yes you do.”
