Today: 40 years later, Apple turns into 1984
• The launch of Apple’s Vision Pro face jail is an inescapable sign that Apple has finally transformed into the Orwellian giant that their famous Super Bowl commercial warned about in 1984. Mark will discuss the similarities between the VR headset and the facehugging parasite from the Alien movies.
• My guest-host episode of Double Dip Recess last Saturday, Feb 3
• Total Trust screening at Monty Hall (43 Montgomery, Jersey City, NJ): Saturday, March 2 – Doors 7:30pm, screening starts 8pm
• June 19, 2023 episode with Paris Marx: Ridiculing Apple's Vision Pro headset
• "How to watch sports on the Apple Vision Pro" (Twitter/X, Alex Finn) . . . or as past Techtonic guest Brian Merchant puts it, "aka How to voluntarily exact the punishment given to the guy in Clockwork Orange upon yourself."
• Tim Cook talks Augmented Reality, Steve Jobs, need for encryption at Utah Tech Tour (9 to 5 Mac, Oct 2, 2016)

I saw the headline on Thursday's Post & noticed their diatribe at the bottom of the page suggesting Zuck was downplaying the urgency of the matter concerning FB & IG. Well, what can you expect from a guy like Zuck?
