:dead:

Too bad, probably. Money won't be an issue now anymore,l but I fear that the OR now will try to impose FB onto OR users or base its support on it.

Which would mean that my - mild only anyway - interest would officially drop to non-negotiable zero.

Sony recently announced its own gadget like OR for PS4.

Zuckerberg seems to have an addiction to throw 10-to-11-digit numbers of dollars around now, doesn't he :dead:

So Disappointed it wasn't Pornhub.

Now its run by Facebook, you would see things like:

"Skybird also enjoyed Barely Legal Coeds XXX 23, would you like to poke him?"

I'm trying to stay optimistic about it, but Facebook is buying up everything and I'm worried a lot of these techs are going to fizzle out once FB's investors start crying for them to quit spending so much money.
