The one on the left holds up rich assholes who (sadly) have either all the impact on the world, or none of it

The one on the right holds up furries and femboys, who have all the impact on the IT and telecom infrastructure in the western world, which hold up everyone.

I respect the one on the right for obvious reasons.

Btw, what happpened with the micro-mirrors and laser solution, projecting the image in your eyes? Sounds ideal for AR to me.

Not related to Apple.

Expensive and difficult to get high resolution (good quality precise microscopic mirrors). Apple went for higher DPI regular display because that's a far more well known engineering problem

At least the cheaper one protects me from the smell of nuclear was- I mean the smell of cigarettes.

Apple people sure do enjoy being cucked

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Does that include the HRT?

You're gonna look like a CRT instead

They made a VR headset... and put a holographic lightfield display... on the outside.

Real fucking brain trust over at Cupertino.

The lightfield part is harder do make in high DPI, but yes I had the exact same thought

More dots won't make this tech catch on. I assume some PiMax product still has more dots than this. Closer or wider, I dunno, but those guys charge Apple prices for PC rates.

VR has slumped because the right price point for mere stereo is a lot lower than it has been. Even for subsidized gizmos like Quest HMDs. (And not being glued to Facebook would help.) It needs to be too cheap not to own, or fancy enough to beat Virtual Boy plus color and head-tracking.
