Same reason he’s going after generative AI: he is totally out of hyper-growth ideas to carry Meta any further once the digital ad industry begins to contract

www.wheresyoured.at/rotcombubble/
The tech, however, was never there. Mark Zuckerberg sold everybody on the concept of a Ready Player One-esque metaverse. Putting aside the fact that Ready Player One is a poorly-written dystopia, this vision hinges heavily on the idea of technology that completely immerses the user, allowing them to exist in a digital world that feels real. The reality was far worse — nausea-inducing headsets that led you into a clunky, cartoonish world that was neither fun nor practical, and tens of billions of dollars of R&D costs developing headsets that lose money on every sale. Zuckerberg's glossy metaverse video — published at the same time Facebook rebranded to Meta, and was significant insofar as it was a demonstration of the company’s future ambitions and direction — showed exactly what he hoped he could build, and had he done so I'd argue it might have been a success, But said success would be predicated on a pace of innovation that we've not had in over a decade. Forty billion dollars later, the metaverse is no closer to existing, yet Zuckerberg keeps burning cash in the hopes that he can get just one more hit of hyper-growth. That's all he needs, man. That's why Zuckerberg is so full-force on generative AI, shoving it into every Meta platform regardless of whether it does anything useful or says extremely strange things, like pretending it’s a parent of a gifted child and recommending schools to other (actual) parents. It's the same reason that Sundar Pichai and Liz Reid are forcing generative AI into Google Search even as it actively misinforms their customers, recommending people introduce glue and rocks to their diet, claiming former U.S. President Barack Obama is a muslim, and regurgitating stories from satirical news outlet The Onion as indisputable fact.

I haven’t seen this yet on Bluesky, but it seems like a new level of sadism in the US…criminalizing having a baby on the street while homeless. Again, there is simply no hell hot enough for these godawful creatures.

A common trait in wellness grifters is a fragile ego.

Health experts know what they don’t know, and have enough humility to know science evolves.

Wellness grifters believe they own a moral high ground and are baffled that anyone would dare question them.

Or try to expose them.

Six-part infographic explaining How to Gird Up Your Loins, courtesy of The Art of Manliness: 1. The tunic wouldn't allow you to do heavy labor or fight in battle, necessitating the "girding" of one's loins. 2. First, hoist the tunic up so that all the fabric is above your knees. This will give you mobility. 3. Gather all the extra material in front of you, so that the back of the tunic is snug against your backside. 4. Once the excess fabric is gathered in front, pull it underneath and between your legs to your rear. This feels much like a diaper. 5. Gather half of the material in each hand, bringing it back around to the front. 6. Finally, tie your two handfuls of material together, and you're all set for both battle and some hard labor. Go forth, be ye men, and gird up your loins!
