Sony's regretting shutting down Everquest right abou-- WAIT, WHAT?! Everquest is still running?! -- nm - Mop Jan 18, 20:08 2
- Huh. Go figure. I guess I'll count them as the official first, second life as second (in accordance with the prophecy), and WoW as third. :) -- nm - Beryllium Jan 18, 20:10 1
  - Ultima Online was before Everquest. - Mop Jan 18, 20:15
Let's all agree not to act like boomers as crypto and the metaverse take over society. -- nm - The Allfather Jan 18, 20:02 16

  - ha! what about that collection of commemorative spoons, those 24 carat (clad) buffalo nickels the size of coasters? -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 18, 20:32
- I don't begrudge people for buying into the metaverse concept. But I do for crypto. - Beryllium Jan 18, 20:06 6
  - Hmm, maybe begrudge is slightly the wrong word here. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 18, 20:14
  - Like everything else, the user determines the morality. Crypto is positively impacting many third-world citizens. -- nm - The Allfather Jan 18, 20:14 3
    - Short-term distraction from the long-term solution we should be working toward. - Beryllium Jan 18, 20:21 2
      - No. Just no. Good lord no. - The Allfather Jan 18, 20:24 [Attachment] 1
        
        No. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 18, 20:28
  - I do have my druthers about the inherently silo'd nature of the metaverse concept as it currently exists, of course. But it is less offensive to me. - Beryllium Jan 18, 20:11
- don't worry. crypto won't. -- nm - mafic Jan 18, 20:05 5
  - Mmmhmm. -- nm - The Allfather Jan 18, 20:06 4
    - it's a minor commodity now. it won't be a currency without fundamental structural change. - mafic Jan 18, 20:14 3
      - It's already a currency that's more viable to the under-30 crowd than banking. - The Allfather Jan 18, 20:18 2
        
        still an asset class not a currency. -- nm - mafic Jan 18, 20:27
        
        I can't help but feel that statement is full of hyperbole -- nm - crash davis Jan 18, 20:23
