I wonder if the Vision Pro has low enough latency to show a TV screen with a false horizon behind it that would let kids watch movies on car trips without getting motion sick.

My jokey solution to the Fermi paradox is that really great VR causes civilizations to plateau before they can figure out interstellar travel. But maybe not at $3500/pair.

You can build a reliable process out of multiple unreliable ones. If only it was more feasible to spread my doordash credit over multiple restaurants, I might be able to eat at noon on a regular basis.
