People are actually paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for “real estate” in the metaverse and it seems to be a hot trend right now being pushed by Mark Zuckerberg and others.
In fact he says it's going to be the future of his company!
I don't see the point of it...
Say one wrong word and you will be banned.
Think of it as a virtual prison.
Zukerputz needs to have something to stay busy when he is incarcerated in the Georgia state porison for election crimes
I foresee massive problems in the future with social maladies and addictions, and personality disorders galore. Should have stuck to the occasional psilocybin day in the desert
Sounds like Ready Player One. I honestly expect it to get there fairly quick and think most young people will embrace it.
Frankly, I think Ready Player One was one of the most prophetic movies ever made, and it was a very easy prediction to make.
I’m not interested and I think it won’t deliver monumental profits as envisioned by the nasty Zuckerberg. Zuckerberg is pushing it because he’s incapable of creating anything really new on his own. He stole the idea for Facebook from the Winklevoss twins.
Sounds like an intelligence tax on the wealthy that are also incredibly stupid.
Mescaline.
No.
It’s the Next Thing. Kind of like flying cars were (and are).
I have a Occulus Quest 2 but have barely used it.
The tech is pretty impressive i just don’t really like wearing the thing.
I tried out Horizon once for a short time, it’s pretty weird talking to strangers from around the world like they are in the room right in front of me..
you still have the original face busting head strap or did you upgrade to the elite strap or one of knock offs on amazon? Its way better with a replacement strap
Book was way better..
Prolly, but my statement stands. I see that as our future and, truth be told, I think it will actually be even more realistic than the way they depict it in the movie.
Dear facebook…
Yea i bought a aftermarket strap thing what i need now is a good face thing.
The original foam one is pretty lousy.
I’d rather go to the dentist.
I bought this Star Trek game for it that is REALLY cool but i have hardly even played that.
I must be just getting to old..
:(
Where is the red light district? Asking for bill clinton.
It sounds pointless until you figure out that it’s a perfect tool for laundering money.
