I’m glad that John Carmack is rich and intellectually stimulated, but watching him be wasted building Metaverse VR was like trying to remove my own teeth with a pair of pliers.

Time to delete your Facebook.

It’s infuriating, really.

They just really want to get to know you.

I backed the original Oculus Rift, and felt massively betrayed when they sold to Meta. :(

For years since I’ve been waiting for A VR solution that plays nice with Linux and is at least somewhat privacy-respecting, and I have been absolutely unwilling to buy a Quest device or anything else. I want to play VR but I’m not willing to sell my soul for it. So it’s been an unhappy but conscious boycott from me.

I too then am super looking forward to the Steam Frame because it’s the device I need to get back into VR and feel happy and excited about it, rather than disgusted.

Palmer Lucky turning into a Bond villain wasn’t exactly something I expected when I first saw him pushing the original Kickstarter Oculus

Thankfully I haven’t had to use any Meta products for a while now, and as far as Alphabet is considered I’ll turn 126 years old on 01/01/2026 and live where my country’s parliament building is. Because fuck them, that’s why.

No thanks ,I’m gone🖕

I mean, they, really want that data, so just give them that (random) data.

Edit: if they verify, use date of friend/family member. Scramble that data.

Why use that data? Just put it to Jan 1 1900, like everyone else on porn sites.

1/1/1

I went as far as scanning my passport for these @ssholes and they still banned me 😂 to this day I have no clue why

Because you’re nothing to them

I always use the birthday of a friend of mine. That way if they if I have to validate something in the future, I’ve used a consistent date.
