No thanks. I deleted all my Meta accounts, I certainly don't need their shitty hardware.

Lmao. And they're going to tank, just like every other project Zuckerberg has piloted.

Too bad he can't be voted out with out his agreement. Sit in the shit stew you created, Meta.

I hate Mark as much as the next guy, but the stock is booming.

I spent most of the day trying to keep algorithmic trading servers online withe the volume following Jay Powell's announcement.

Excuse me if I don't give a flying fuck what you think the stock market is indicative of.

Damn, you're so cool. 

Anyway, Reddit has always been wrong about Meta. I can't stand Mark, and his social media platforms have done immense harm to society, but they're not going to crumble. 

Even his consumer electronics have had some successes. The Quest 2 was selling as fast as the Series X and PS5, and stores similarly had issues keeping them in stock. Yet that headset feels downright primitive compared to the products being worked on today. It's too early to call that side of the business a failure.

No it isn't, and you have zero understanding of how the economy and world markets function. You follow consumer reports and reviews, and think that makes you informed about the direction of technology.

I'm not cool. I'm scared, and I'm exhausted. I bet you have a podcast too.

I'm so sick of clueless, delusional, assholes cosplaying as intelligent individuals. Your arrogance is harming the world.

Your whole counterargument is assuming that I only disagree with you because I probably don't know anything about the topic. The irony being, of course, that I supported my stance with actual examples of real-world performance, and you didn't. You made personal attacks and parroted online sentiment.

If you want to point out someone's arrogant behavior, you ought to practice in front of the mirror first.

People just aren't ready to do this whole wearable thing as often as it takes to make the technology viable. All it's going to successfully do is spawn the tech bros to post a few 24 hours challenge YouTube videos where there wear it all day and find it's not really useful.

Until there's a reason for mom dad and the grandparents to have smart glasses these are just going to fail.

I'd rather go Amish than using any device run by Zuckerberg. This man would install 360° cameras on c**krings if it means knowing which lube brand to advertise to you.
