CTO @FractureXR | Making things with technology in (always) sunny Brighton

@NiclasJ And I'd say it probably doesn't say much about the state of XR. This seems like a niche device for an enthusiast market. Bigscreen are a pretty small company, personalised devices for a dedicated & passionate user base seems like a pretty smart play tbh.

[Rob Minson @robbbminson]

@NiclasJ Interesting that you think personalisation is a showstopper for enterprise. I'd say the fact it's tethered + outside in is a reasonably big impediment for most enterprise use cases, but I'm not convinced personalisation is. Is the issue resale/return or device-pooling?

@dieworkwear @peachmilfshake Weird that nobody’s focusing on how 3/4 of the value chain in the example is made up not of materials and labour, but by marketing, retailing and profit distribution. Focus should be on why that’s so high. Not on whether we all need to either bankrupt ourselves or shop at shein

@paulbz I apologise on behalf of my people. I've had some *terrible* cups of tea made by Brits over the years, and have *never* let on that I thought them anything other than delicious. Part of the basic code of conduct when receiving tea 🇬🇧☕️

@tedbrownxr Check out @pushmatrix and @V_Kurbatov, they both post really high quality concept stuff from time to time

@Dilmerv We used Unity to make an AR/VR meeting app that’s used to train doctors, to design products, and to do high level sales pitches https://t.co/LT0NbIllz8

But still nobody’s explained whether the hadrons are large, or the collider is.

[Rob Minson @robbbminson]

We don’t build with WebXR and it feels weirdly declarative coming from game engine land, but I’m always impressed by what can be achieved with so little when I look at @aframevr examples

[Rob Minson @robbbminson]

@mattturck This wasn’t a good idea failing in-spite of effort, as you’re portraying. It was a serial grifter sliding through a DD process that was clearly asleep at the wheel.

1) 🚨A DECADE OF DECEPTION FROM FAST CEO: DOMM HOLLAND 🚨

Fast is closing down, largely because the company was burning an absurd $10M a month in 2021 while only generating $50k per month in sales.

I checked out the history of their CEO, Domm Holland, and it is... interesting.
