they embraced, extended and extinguished a lot of the germinating vr industry to try and force this shit to succeed.
And they made that little shitstain Palmer Luckey a multi-billionnaire so that he could donate to Trump and build his stupid little war drones.
Fuckin'disgusting. I honestly don't even know what the point of paying this much for oculus was. They barely had usable tech, nothing was patented, meta rebranded it anyway and they most definitely didn't have critical mass on their shitty store at the time.
