  • I’ll never forget being at GDC the year of the acquisition and trying out all these first wave VR games. There were Facebook suits litterally walking around the expo floor with checkbooks, asking how much it would cost to make the game an oculus exclusive. Lots of these devs just took the money and never released the game, or released something crappy and unfinished because the exclusivity check was more than they expected to make in sales.

    Facebook deeply wounded the entire VR ecosystem right as it was budding. Let’s not make them sound so innocent.



















  • I have a friend who works at the morgue. He drives the hearse, picks up bodies that don’t need autopsies, prepares the bodies, hosts the funurals, a lot of it. He knows the guys who operate the crematorium and dig the graves well. He can make a body disappear. He also finds plenty of John Does, unidentified bodies. Mostly ones that float up to the shore, severely decayed. He’s told me if I needed, I’d just have to lay low for a few weeks and he’d have a body in my casket.
