Wristwatch ain’t gonna cut it, to really allow users to feel the social media they’re gonna need an anal probe.

This technology could be used as an interrogation/brainwashing technique (or a punishment).

Idiocy, stupid is as stupid does.

Expect a rousing success in signups.

Swell what next? Go to meta universe to experience “rral life” explosive diarrhea and projectile vomitting, and shingles and sinus and bladder infections and such?

When I worked for a major cell phone company, I visited their “R&D” brainstorming headquarters for new products. It was mostly a bunch of 20 somethings in a very “hip” location right out of a movie.

Anyway, they showed us this new idea where you could attach a thin membrane device on your clothing (like your arm), or even in your clothing (sewn into your shirt, fore example) and it could be connected to your phone and someone could send you a “hug” via text that would cause it to vibrate so you knew you got a hug.

After they finished showing us, I asked the obvious question: “So, you could put that on ANY part of your body to get a ‘hug’”?

Awkward silence and few giggles.🤣

"You could feel real-life pain in the metaverse including ‘bird pecking at your skin’"

Or you could just listen to a Phillip Glass album....

There will be a small number of Meta users who will say they still feel involuntary and intrusive sensations long after that wrist device has been removed. One has to be careful when
using ‘virtual’ hardware.

I am definitely invoking Rule 34. Enough said.
