I got the Apple Vision Pro. It’s awesome, but to be honest, it doesn’t do much, yet. It’s amazing hardware and software, but there are few built-in apps. It’ll grow and expand, but there’s just not a lot you can do with it yet.

There are two built-in experiences to sell you on how much potential it has to sell you on how incredible this thing can / will be. They both involve dinosaurs.

In one, a large dino comes into the room. It’s very impressive. In the other, you’re fully immersed in a scene of dinos and you can look around at all the scenery surrounding you. And this got me thinking…

What if I was a Young Earth Creationist who bought this? You know, those dummies who take the bible literally and think the earth is 5-6000 years old. The ones who think either fossils are a test of your faith by god or dinos roamed the earth with humans. How would these make such a person feel?

Personally, my first dream job, as a child, was to be an archaeologist, digging up dinos, so I loved both experiences. But if I thought this was all a lie from Satan, how let down might I feel when those are the best parts of my new, expensive toy?

This was my first thought when I awoke this morning. I’m typing it right after I woke so I don’t forget, such as we forget the details of dreams. Apologies for typos. I’m not proofreading it. I’m grabbing some caffeine and getting my day going. I just wanted to capture this silly, ironic idea. Btw, the AVP is still truly awesome and I don’t regret the purchase.
