  • Unless the story involves 007 somehow going after his own awful government, somehow fighting corrosive hyper capitalism, or otherwise undermining the cancer of western hegemony, I think I’m done with this franchise that I’ve recently realized is just high-rent copaganda. Don’t really care how good the director is or how hot the women are.

  • You may be correct, but I suspect that by the time that we eventually achieve this technological goal, it will be more economically viable to plug it into robotic solutions that mostly take humans out of the loop for such industrial applications. I don’t think any of that is happening soon. I still don’t see a long term path for XR beyond some niche gaming and porn applications.

  • It’s remarkable that there continues to be investment in this UI form factor over such a long period of time, despite there being no evidence that there is a widespread market for this. The challenge to make this good is obviously very very high. I strongly suspect that the challenge of convincing people to adopt this form or computing in anything larger than a few niche use cases is even higher. As cool as this technology seems in theory, the fact is that people generally don’t need it and don’t want it. There will always be niche markets for this, and perhaps that’s enough to justify the continued investment. But, I hope investors aren’t fooling themselves into thinking that this is going to ever be common or widely adopted.

  • For the record, I like some art house stuff, but I love many mainstream movies too. For example (and I know this is a controversial opinion), I think the extended cut of Batman v Superman is pretty close to a masterpiece. My immediate point is not to argue about what is or isn’t a good Superman movie. I just want to call out your assumption-driven ignorance and shove that self-assured salt of the earth elitism, that you chose to post here, up your bad taste having ass.
