qirex posted:Is there though? The people who make this stuff certainly have ideas for research/education but VR already exists and hasn't found anything but a few very specific niches. It's one thing to say "wouldn't it be cool if you could look inside a person?" and another to actually build the application to do that. Floating 3d repair manual is another one but is anyone, even Boeing or Airbus going to spend a hundred million dollars making that happen? this is always Apple’s biggest problem- for every success that births a paradigm shift and new normal and a billion accessories and applications that take advantage of it there’s a spot where Apple went “and now it’s The Market’s turn to fill in this big hole that we’ve deliberately left” and it doesn’t work out that way and often, like with the Trashcan Pro, an expensive product ends up languishing in limbo-hell like that for years. It was more forgivable in the past when Apple was scrappy and An Alternative to something more mainstream, but now with enough money on hand to turn themselves into a bank its much less so, and feels more like a serial problem with neglect. TLDR: Apple’s gonna have to spend a lot of their own money on software and experiences/content/etc to make this headset work

SourKraut posted:It’s the same thing with gaming: there is literally zero reason now for such low game support on Macs, given the power of Apple Silicon, except that Apple doesn’t view it as enough of a priority to put the resources into supporting the porting efforts, etc., that would be required to do so. yeah basically this

That Mac Pro was p much everything I expected and yet so underwhelming. Hopefully it doesn’t cost too much more than the equivalent Studio

And a lot of “middle class” people are financing their $999 and $1999 full living room or master bedroom sets from Bob’s Discount Furniture or Raymour & Flanagan the idea that $3500 can’t get you more than a pair of coffee tables or a small sofa is very “I only shop name brand”

Three Olives posted:The median home price in Dallas is $413K, I assure you plenty of people can afford $3,499 for an amazing Apple gadget, even if you think people with $400k houses are "rich" and not "middle class". guess what, dipshit, most of the people living in $400k homes in the United States are financing them with heretofore-unseen levels of lifetime debt, while amassing no real savings and living what amounts to a paycheck to paycheck existence, where more than a few weeks of unemployment would entirely ruin them and their families. When I say “middle class” and use the scare quotes, I mean “middle class” with the scare quotes, which is what the overwhelming majority of “middle class” people in this country are. It’s married school psychologists making a combined $115k annual income and struggling to save for their three kids’ college educations along with $60k in car loans, $100k in student debt, and a mortgage on a $450k house. I’m not talking about the pair of DINK trust fund gays who clear $320k annual combined and share a car and can comfortably make all of the payments on their $200k two bedroom luxury condo with ease while still dropping $10k on a lavish Tuscan cruise vacation for Two every single year
