(Zero Hedge)—Apple’s nearly $4,000 mixed-reality headset, Apple Vision Pro, hit store shelves on Friday, and early adopters have already been spotted in the wild.
Let’s begin with Fox’s The Simpsons, which has successfully predicted the future once again.

And many have been doing very interesting activities while in public.

I don't know if it is allowed, but if it is, how long will it take to prohibit the use of Apple Vision Pro while driving a vehicle? It is a danger not to put all five senses into what is happening.

People are now wearing the Apple Vision Pro headset out in public
For some reason it reminds me of people masking pic.twitter.com/4eIdvXMord

Last year, Black Mirror creator Charlie Brooker was reminded of his show when he saw Apple’s Vision Pro presentation, saying: “It’s weird, it’s really weird. One of my instincts when I saw that was like, ‘Oh my God, that’s so Black Mirror.‘”
This reminds me of maskers. It’s a barrier between them and the outside world, much like a security blanket. That’s all it is. A security blanket for a coddled generation that is afraid of their own shadow.
Life would be better for them if they interacted and socialized in person. I can’t imagine wasting their lives on the internet or in virtual worlds, they are only looking at a snapshot of a real life and not living it.
