Quest Pro VR Headset, Avatars With Legs: What You Missed at Meta Connect 2022

Quest offi­cial­ly killed what­ev­er chances it had by pair­ing with Fake­book. I sold mine and imme­di­ate­ly bought a VIVE Pro, which is MUCH bet­ter than Quest will ever be.

Im a bit scep­ti­cal of how these tech­nol­o­gy will effects soci­ety. Yes these tech­nol­o­gy is impres­sive but what ben­e­fit it will bring to soci­ety is some­thing that needs to be care­ful­ly artic­u­lat­ed. When elec­tron­ic social­ly media plat­form came into being most assumed it sim­pli­fies the way peo­ple could con­nect with each oth­er. And it did, but it also brought dis­con­nec­tion from life nor­mal­i­ty. How many time have we read on the news, how peo­ple com­mit atro­cious act. From sui­cide due to online bul­ly­ing, to vio­lent mur­der because they lost ‘fol­low­ing’ and did not get enough ‘like’. Yes it all boiled down to the per­son men­tal and and emo­tion­al sta­bil­i­ty, but this tech­nolo­gies heighthen more this deep seat­ed issues because these tech­nol­o­gy made it more per­son­al even if what it offers is just arti­fi­cial. I worked with tech­nol­o­gy, gosh i even build sys­tem that uses the same archi­tec­ture such as WEBRTC and AI. I teach STEM Robot­ic to pri­ma­ry school stu­dent so they could appre­ci­ate Math and Sci­ence and even show them how to cre­ate games in 3D blender. I enjoy teach­ing kids because i see them as the future, how­ev­er I put lim­it by telling stu­dent to go out have some fun with real phys­i­cal human friend and not dwell too much on vir­tu­al envi­ron­ment. We go to the school play­ground and let each of them takes turn in oper­at­ing drone have a real com­pe­ti­tion with oth­er real phys­i­cal human child and not the vir­tu­al one. I remind them that no tech­nol­o­gy regard­less of how advance it is can­not replace human con­nec­tion. Because tech­nol­o­gy is just a tool not life itself.

🤣🤣🤣

More ways to avoid actu­al human con­tact. This is just going to lead to more men­tal decline in the younger pop­u­la­tion. The part where the two were wear­ing head­sets in the same room with each is pret­ty on point. They pro­mote this tech­nol­o­gy as a way to enhance social inter­ac­tion. Iron­i­cal­ly, it shows you how to avoid it altogether.

It’s amaz­ing how inau­then­tic Mark comes across. You can tell he knows he’s lying. Con­trast him with Steve Jobs’s real­i­ty dis­tor­tion field for instance…Steve seemed full of reli­gious zeal even when lying.

Meta­verse sucks

Why do they change the name from Face­book for Meta…I thought Face­book is more of a catchy and pop­u­lar name. In fact, I have no idea what Meta is until I found out they changed the name.

Mark is cre­at­ing Meta so he can appear more real.

S…s…so d..d..doe..s t..t..that m..m..m..m..mean,
I CAN MAKE TRAVIS SCOTT PRODUCE TEARS???!!!
AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAHAAAAAA

Zuck Meta lot of resistence to mass adoption

Face­books Emo­ji world with legs. So absolute­ly dumb. CNET used to be high­ly regard­ed for their reviews. Now they are just syco­phants to every new tech that comes out, how­ev­er lame.

“What caught your atten­tion” for me it was her 🫠

would make feet track­ing eas­i­er and you can prob­a­bly walk around with man­u­al tread­mills with­out addi­tion­al track­er seems like the way to go. imag­ine your own house mod­eled in vr and you walk around but your invit­ed guest gets to float around, walk through walks etc and you can hear them depend­ing on the loca­tion. prob­a­bly how dimen­sion­al being irl work too maybe lol
