A feature in Meta's glasses which boosts the voice of people will be capped at three hours for free use.

    Expected asshole behavior from Meta and zero sympathy to people who buy that trash.

      I was about to type pretty much the exact same thing, but I figured it would already be here for me to upvote :)

        I wasn’t paying attention when Facebook began ruining technology with bad business decisions but it’s getting old.

        I have an oculus VR that’s basically useless now that meta owns the company. They decided to stop updating it, so my 450 dollar bought brand new hoped it would last for life is a paper weight.

        Pay wall for already way too expensive and kind of pointless glasses? Like what. Is that how they’re making money now?

      androids like zuckerberg are unlikely to have emotions, or humanity.
