Umm. We have been the product for many years now, across many devices. Choose your poison. If the tech is something you are interested, you might as well use it. Life is too short to deprive yourself of the things you want to have. But, by all means, if you can do without, then do.

Reply to comment by Firm_Masterpiece_343 in NASA aces test of robot balloon that could one day explore Venus by MicroSofty88

Like the other guy said, do you research. Atmosphere on Venus is mega dense. Conditions you cite are found in the surface, of which this balloon will never go to. In to of the clouds is, apart from the lack of oxygen, otherwise al the most pleasant of all bodies in the system. Pleasant temperature, 1 atmosphere pressure, a blue sky. A human could survive a trip to the top of Venus on such balloons in a t shirt and jeans, and an oxygen mask.

Sure. But, this is still a clickbait article created to insight reactions and divide lines. Meta makes amazing headsets, is pushing VR/AR more than any other company in history. And yet, I dont like their business model.
