Meta and Palmer Luckey's Anduril Industries partner to build EagleEye, a new AI-powered weapons system, including rugged helmets, glasses, and other wearables

At least Luckey went with the name of the good guy's sword rather than the bad guy's surveillance device, like Peter Thiel.
Both are funded by Thiel, it’s all Thiel down the way.

Thiel is basically pushing the idea of breaking up the US of A into "city states". And the IT Bros, as the "chosen ones" due to their business acumen, they will all get a city to govern said independent states.
"But they were all of them deceived..."

The cities state idea is more of a Curtis Yarvin thing, but he has the backing of Thiel.
Thiel is pushing whatever thing allows the existence of a libertarian state a la Bioshock. In his essay “Education of a Libertarian “ he talks about a few things that could usher such a state like the internet, space colonies or sea standing. So far he has funded two companies that could allow such a state to form. He was one of the first to fund SpaceX (Mars), and he funded a project of Yarvin that I don’t really understand but it’s something about cyber city states or some shit like that, it’s super obscure.

"Yet the lies that Melkor, the mighty and accursed, Morgoth Bauglir, the Power of Terror and Hate, sowed in the hearts of Elves and Men are a seed that does not die and cannot be destroyed; and ever and anon it sprouts anew, and will bear dark fruit even unto the latest days." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion
That doesn't even really sound like hyperbole anymore.

Was Palmer not fired for donating to Trump 2016 campaign?? New times, eh?
Not just donating, he was proudly shitposting for trump.
Oculus founder Palmer Luckey's role in Clinton smear group remains murky
VR's boy genius funneled money toward a shady pro-Trump charity. But he disagrees with The Daily Beast about what he did -- or didn't -- say.

Palmer Luckey is one of the ugliest mother fuckers I’ve ever seen in my life. Glad to see him and Zuck buried the hatchet, now that Zuck is kissing Trumps ass.
Zuckerberg has lifeless eyes. When they say some people don't have souls here ya go.

I hate that both trademarks exist, but I'd say using a name form a Tolkien work to develop weapons is especially wrong. Like, abject.
