the future is where you won't ever be able to afford the jetpacks
This is what makes me sad. Like take the Apple vision pro for instance, there are potentially many great use cases for such a technology, such as real life ad blocking, assistance with various tasks, etc. Yet we get this obnoxious looking, expensive, obtrusive headset that uses cameras to view the real world for some reason, with dystopian avatars and completely locked down Apple software. The thing won't even let users watch VR porn by default, you have to turn on a special setting lol, that's how locked down it is. That the web browser does not allow VR content by default.
I feel like it was maybe a decade ago when things started to get worse faster than they got better.
