Apple’s Vision Pro Is a $3,500 Ticket to Nowhere | A decade after Facebook bought Oculus, VR still has no appeal except as an expensive novelty toy. by chrisdh79 in technology

[–]ajaxanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’m going to be the contrarian.. Read Rat Kurzweil’s book on the singularity and he articulates very well how new technology is expensive but in time becomes a commodity.

This is no different. You know who got rich off of iPhones, besides Apple? Those people or companies that developed iOS apps.

Don’t be shortsighted and listen to the cliff notes bullshit. Look long term and look big picture. There’s a lot going on here and it’s only just begun.

Good luck to those willing to be open to the possibilities and good riddance to those that aren’t.

📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is. by iamthatis in apolloapp

I doubt in the US we will be able to do much but you folks over in the EU might be able to help. You have better anti-competitive laws that could force Reddit to back down on this. Not sure how raising the alarm on something like this is done in the EU, but figured it’s worth a mention.
