Thank you for this article because I would have had no idea. I would have seen that console and not know who tf Palmer Lucky is. But, I do know what Anduril is. There’s just too many war crimes CEOs for me to know/remember them all.

Side note, related. Stop supporting Mark Roper/CrunchLabs too. He loves Anduril and frequently features them.

Ah, but would an absolute dipshit say something like this, on the occasion of winning a US military contact?

For Luckey, the contract transition is his own watershed moment. In his blog on Tuesday, he wrote that the announcement is “deeply personal.”

“Everything I’ve done in my career — building Oculus out of a camper trailer, shipping VR to millions of consumers, getting run out of Silicon Valley by backstabbing snakes, betting that Anduril could tear people out of the bigtech megacorp matrix and put them to work on our nation’s most important problems — has led to this moment,” he wrote.

I’ve never been a fan of Lucky. Selling oculus to meta was a terrible move for vr. Startinga defence contractor is absolute evil. But, I just found out he’s also related to that piece of shit Matt Gaetz, if there weren’t enough reasons to hate.

Damn when Frank Cifaldi comes at someone…

The Video Game History Foundation’s Frank Cifaldi said it best last December: “I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn’t. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it’s going to invite its friends.”

Good to know, I might have bought one casually without researching.

Palmer Lucky can bite a bullet. That would be a good day.
