$100 Billion faux-pas on the Metaverse

It just blows my mind that they have so little to show for so much money. They could have made their own gpu to rival NVidia with that investment. They could have set up soup kitchens and fed the hungry with that investment. Instead we got Lawnmower Man.

I had so many people telling me the metaverse was the future. My former company sat us down for 2 hours trying to brainstorm ways to get in early. And I told them this was stupid and it would never be successful. That is was a waste of time and money. That we were better off improving our UX and building customer loyalty through good faith ideas. And they looked at me like I was a jaded crazy Luddite.

And yet we continue to treat meta, who hasnt produced shit worth talking about in over a decade like they’re tech royalty. Useless fucks all of them.

This whole industry is full of pussy fucking bed wetters who couldn’t spot a good idea if rammed itself down their throats but will fanboy at the stupidest most useless ideas for the stupidest most useless people. So sick of this shit.
