meta: makes vr division

also meta: is shocked it bleeds money

keep in mind meta didnt make occulus, they bought it out. Oculus is just on the list of silicon valley startups that suceeded in getting bought out and profited from. (of the 10x more that fail)

Is this supposed to be better somehow? Personally it doesn't make much difference to me if Meta created their own shitty VR or bought a decent VR then made it shitty... The result is the same.

They didn't make shit. They did what Google loves to do and they bought a highly successful, incredibly progressive company. And now it's shit, just like alllll the others that got bought out by big names.
