Wake up sheepole The fact the guy likes the Shining and retro video games does not make him a good person, let alone someone who respects your freedom.
I mean if you don’t know what the software in the headset that you own does… WTF?! It could be doing anything: What data does it collect? What do they do with that data? Even if you read and understood the license, they could be going against it without you ever finding out. Not even thinking about your right to modify what your headset does, or distributing your patches…
I’m using FOSSasis, and I hope you guys make the switch as well. It’s free (as in freedom) and decentralized: meaning if you don’t like what a Server is doing (that what we call Worlds in FOSSasis), you can make your own, and you can still visit any Server that has not defederated from you. There are also plans to make it possible to transfer accounts between Servers. The economy is much fairer: every transaction is on the blockchain, so you know there is no manufactured Credit inflation.
As for the stupid Easter Egg Hunt: let the slaves fight for who is going to be master… In FOSSasis we are all masters of our own destinies.
BTW FOSSasis is actually a recursive acronym. It stands for: FOSSasis’s OASIS’s Superior System -asis
im getting WINE flashbacks
I’m getting GNU flashbacks
The code of the OASIS client and all the servers but one could be open source, and only the code relating to the keys could be on a closed cource server.
You haven’t read the book.
I have! It was the movie I didn’t watch, as I found it a cringy attempt to adapt the (in all fairness, quite cringy) book. It was an enjoyable read, but it had its parts that were less… creative.
