    Metaverse was such a mindfuck. Yeah we spent billions on it, billions and billions. No, it’s supposed to look like some free to play shit on XBOX 360. Yes, you need a bunch of expensive equipment. No, there’s no point. No point to any of it. Spared no expense. Spent so much. No, you can’t play it, it’s dead. Forget about it.

      Shows that Zuckerberg was never a good businessman, he just got lucky. He has no actual understanding of how to build a business case.

        Almost feels charitable to say that, feels like if I am spending a billion dollars a month on a project nobody uses, nobody wants, and clearly shouldn’t cost that much, at what point should people start asking where all that money’s really going?

    The funniest shit to me was they couldn’t get legs working using the body facing cameras on the bottom of the Q3; but hella 3rd party games can do it just fine. I guess Carmack was the only one in the company capable of writing software well.
