       i just started reading "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson for the second time.  the first time i read it was way back in 2014 so i only vaguely remember the basic premise of information viruses and the oddly anticlimactic ending.anyways i'm still salty that the word "metaverse" has forever been tainted by Cuckerberg's bad Second Life clone and the news coverage back in 2021 hardly ever mentioned the book so most people don't even know where it comes from.

       @snickerbockers Same. Metaverse means one thing and it has nothing to do with Facebook.
