I love how Facebitch changed the name of the company to Meta, and still haven't changed it back.
That's still a thing? Is it just Zuck wondering around his own digital universe trying to find people to be friends with?
Looks like meatverse is back on the menu
You can't run with an idea if it has no legs?
What the fuck is the Metaverse?
Basically a terrible bootleg of "Ready Player One".
Basically a VR space that Mark Zuckerberg thought was going to be the new internet and everyone will do their stuff there while wearing a VR headset and represented by an on screen avatar.
