AI infrastructure will provides Meta with a “strategic advantage,” Zuckerberg said. He once said almost the exact same thing about the metaverse.

    idk vr never felt like a pit, just early, comfort and fov was an issue, literally my main issue was not being able to see my phone without taking it off. Once that is solved I could use it indefinitely, taking it off and putting it back on was annoying and it always felt wrong after

      I mean I’m a big fan of VR but it’s clearly been a money pit for meta, their massive investment in it is never going to pay back, they were betting on selling “metaverse” real estate rather than making money on the hardware

      A friend had me try his quest 3 (I think?) and for the 15 minutes I used it, it was amazing (except I could see the pixels, he said it was impossible and that it must have been a focus issue, but, well…).

      Of course I would never buy anything made by Meta, so I’m waiting for the Steam Frame, but it’s definitely and interesting technology!

        The quest 3 has like 25 ppd (pixels per degree) and the human limit is like at least 60 ppd. So your friend needs some glasses
