@profcarroll Voted "never" on this one; holiday purchase on the subsidized one.
Never in this case refers to a $3,500 series zero device. We'll see how I might respond at about gen. 3, with the app space more filled out.
@tomlevenson @profcarroll The second question is very loaded. I'm a never on the first, but I'm not a "you couldn't pay me." You could pay me. I can't imagine that I would use it if I had one, but if you paid me I'd take it. I can't imagine buying one, even if it was cheap, but I'm not angry about its existence.
I don't hate the idea of the hardware, but I haven't seen any interesting use cases that I would use at home.
@mikej @profcarroll I'm intrigued by the system. It sort of solves my problem with my last attempt to dive into VR--the social isolation of the experience.
But with the sustained malice we've seen attack every connected application of computation, I'm worried by something I haven't seen discussed: what hacking possibilities exist in this system. Imagine someone taking control of an AR session. Lots of bad possibilities . Could be sci-fi; I'm not technical enough to tell. But if not--erk.
