Whenever you talk about startups with people outside the HN-like crowd, they always ask you about "your ideas", particularly if you assume you have all the funding lined up no problem.
My go-to response is always "put Facebook out of business".
I've been thinking about it for probably 10 years, I still have no idea what that means, but your post here got me a little stoked it could be possible
It's unclear how creating a what-sounds-like a rather expensive open source VR system could possibly put Facebook "out of business", considering probably 99 out of 100 people have no idea FB even owns Oculus.
Also, FB's core business is ads sold to businesses trying to reach users doing social networking stuff...how does this even touch that revenue?
At this point, I don't think FB will ever be put out of business given how old their core user base is, knowing that older people loath tech changes.
