pedz, Those VR headsets always make me think of this

But I learned that apparently porn is not “possible” on the Apple one… yet.
BudgieMania, Well shit... The last time I saw memes about how ridiculous an Apple product looked, they were about the AirPods and they ended up being ridiculously popular.
It doesn't matter how silly it looks to us at first, Apple could convince people that wearing dog feces on their face looks cool. Unfortunately.
namewok, If apple sells a bag of turd these people will definitely buy it and call others poor or something
bruhduh, Sony too) they are very successful with psyop business
Maven, The headset even says “Mac User” a few seconds before this.
Gradually_Adjusting, Snow Crash predicted VR people looking like fucking losers, but then gave them the cool nickname “gargoyle”.
onlooker, Eeeeh, kinda? Gargoyles weren’t specifically VR users, though they were using VR. They also had computer parts strewn all over their body and if I recall correctly, they had cameras for surveillance, too.
Cort, This is all I can see

Even_Adder,
Jknaraa, Amazing series if anyone hasn’t seen it.
Even_Adder, I’ve watched it twice and still don’t fully understand what’s going.
ranoss, Is the series called present day present time?
Kit, No, it’s called Serial Experiments Lain. “present day, present time” is a quote from the show.
ranoss, Thanks! I haven’t seen/heard about this but I like the art style.
Kit, It’s a slow burn but definitely worth a watch. Keep in mind that it came out before smartphones and the Internet really took off. It predicted a lot of modern tech.
menemen, Is it this one? archive.org/…/Serial+Experiments+Lain+EP01+Weird+…
Jknaraa, As was already linked above, yes.
menemen, Hm? I only see the imgur link.
getoffthedrugsdude, Present Day, Present Time!
Even_Adder, Hahahahaha!
loaExMachina, And you don’t seem to understand

kaishi, And you don't seem to understand~
