I read complaints, such as the metaverse is depopulated. You go into a meta restaurant And there will be one table with 4 customers.

I don’t even know what a metaverse, other than it’s some kind of live Sim universe, where we interact as if it’s real life.

I like you guys and all, but there is a reason why I haven’t visited any of you.

HaHaHa... Could not happen to a more deserving person. While still filthy rich he has to live with the failure of his pet project.

I have seen those remarks. Some also complain that the figures seen have only half a body. The floating heads with torsos have no body from the waist down. I don’t know if that’s true or not. I find it hard to believe any adult would think that was a good idea.

...$30 billion of those funds evaporate in a matter of months.

Ukraine's got it?

He spent $ 451 million to defeat Trump. I hope he loses the rest of it and has to live in a homeless shelter (of course in NYC, this would be in a luxury hotel).

In contrast to the best selling computer games, that are competently executed. These games are a small metaverse, but are pulled off right. Or they will not sell.

BTW Instagram makes money for Zuck/Meta/Facebook whatever they call themselves these days

So are you saying no, its not true about Meta only showing half bodies?
I’ve not been on it, and have no present interest in checking it out.

It has to bother him that his plan is not working. He won’t end up in a shelter, but he can’t be happy.

No, I want Zuck boy not just broke, but in prison for stealing the 2020 election, and reduced to servicing nasty dudes in return for protection and treats from the commissary.

The one thing that we have on the left is their hubris. It will be their undoing I hope.

Some people become fantastically rich from skill and hard work. Others are simply lucky. It’s unlikely Zuckerberg will be lucky twice.

In a perfect world, Zuckerberg’s lasting legacy would be a display in the Famous Hoodies Museum between the Trayvon Martin and John Fetterman exhibits.

The Metaverse sounds like a rehash of Second Life. Walk around in a virtual body, go to virtual places, see other virtual people, grow virtue vegetables in a virtual garden... Or you could get up out of your chair and go outside.
