Has he picked a single winner since he stole the idea for facebook?
Probably only when he bought out Instagram and Whatsapp, that's all I can think of
Those were already popular before he bought them, and then he made them worse.
...but no less popular
I feel like Oculus improved under them, but yeah - an exception proves the rule.
I don't know if "improved" is as accurate as "accelerated" in that case. Oculus was already doing cool stuff they just needed the resources to really get going, and now Meta is all up in it so the service kinda blows.
Yeah, please tell me that he didn't take oculus & vr and drove it into the ground. Where is a nice cheap vr set (not locked in with some turd)?
He bought 100 lottery tickets through acquisition (probably more) and 2 of them hit.
What's the second one ๐
Two other things I don't use.
And Oculus
He's working hard on destroying that one, don't worry. The quest experience has only gotten worse with every update.
Rip
I thought he actually stole the source code, not just the idea.
How on earth can you steal the working thing but not the idea? I mean if it was your idea.
I'm suggesting that he didn't run back to his dorm room and recreate what he saw someone else do all quick like and rather stole their completed or nearly completed code.
Oh yeah I misread that a bit. ๐๐ผ
Unfortunately for humanity, it seems that the pervert glasses are quite popular
