were just lucky.

I knew that the Meta thing was a loser the first time I heard of it.

And who didn't know (except Elon) that there were fake users on Twitter.

He poached the idea of Facebook and got lucky. That was it.

have the bandwidth and processing power required for VR to work worth a damn. Fancy goggles just ain't enough.

If he's marketing this product to rich kids, then that's an ever-shrinking market.

Unless he's attempting to "move fast and break" the Internet porn market, then, well... maybe a different set of "sensors" is needed?

He can probably see the MySpace writing on the wall as all the kids are now on Instagram (which he bought) and TikTok (which he can't). If he had any sense he would just generate as much liquidity as possible without triggering a run on the stock so that when it does finally slip beneath the waves he'd still be a billionaire. But some people just can't handle not being king of the world after their fifteen minutes on top.

All he sees is the “reality” with which he has surrounded himself.

He doesn’t realize he is already in a constructed reality.

I’ve known people like that. The only world they experience is one that is designed to insulate them from the actual world. Their judgment is impaired by having been isolated from it.

good one

Shorter every year. I’ll have a little happy dance 💃 when it folds!
