Honestly VR would be a great way for elderly to travel and socialize.
Retirement homes and church are known places where people "drop off" their family as they age in part due to getting them into social circles.
I have an aging Dad and we're starting to feel uncomfortable with him going out alone. He also doesn't want to retire because he'd be lonely at home while everyone is out at work.
I wonder if VR elderly care was normalized (and free of scammers) it would be a nice dream.
I don't trust that shit in any way that it comes out as due to all the enshitification.
Only use its good for today would be a single player game full of beautiful scenery.
Yeah this is the kind of shit I was looking forward to when I got into driving in the 2000s. But then car manufacturers started doing thier own non standard radios.
Then the car mod communities made kits to for a dual bay fit.
Then the corpos made radios required to service the car...
No regulations to protect the consumers let them do what they want.
The car part of the car should be completely independent of the entertainment part of the car. Fuckers.
The line can get blurry when you talk about EVs but protections should still be possible.
