You were supposed to deatroy the Sith, not join them!

FFS, stop trying to make the Metaverse happen. Nobody wants it.

[-] taladar@sh.itjust.works 29 points 5 days ago

Those who want it have been using it for 20 years already with Second Life. Oddly enough, none of these new metaverse makers take any lessons learned from that but I guess then they would have to admit that VR is crap that nobody needs for immersion.

Hey fuck you man. Alright? Let us have our shitty things without the guilt. /s

At least you know it's shitty...

[-] HowAbt2morrow@futurology.today 3 points 5 days ago

Looks like I forgot the /s but yeah, there’s some really shitty stuff on the metaverse but I believe it’s got a future once some things are sorted out. Like the Fediverse.

[-] sem 5 points 5 days ago

The mediverse is a thing now? Like people log onto it? I thought it was just a failed concept.

[-] Sibshops@lemm.ee 10 points 5 days ago

No shame in liking what you like. Roblox is a metaverse and lots of people play on that.

You didn't self censor your obvious humor??? You're on social media! 🤨

[-] HowAbt2morrow@futurology.today 1 points 4 days ago

The rules on the Fediverse are different I thought? No?

Lol I remember Napster for downloading music damn I'm old.

[-] Dave@lemmy.nz 11 points 5 days ago

Holy hell, Napster is a (legal) subscription music streaming service! Crazy times we live in.

[-] lupusblackfur@lemmy.world 37 points 5 days ago

Napster... Sorry, who??

They're still around??

🤷‍♂️

[-] mostlikelyaperson@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

They aren’t really, some crypto bros just bought the name and stuck it to this pile of horseshit, presumably in the hopes of making some money off of idiots.

[-] cupcakezealot 6 points 4 days ago

maybe lars ulrich was right after all

[-] ShellMonkey@lemmy.socdojo.com 24 points 5 days ago

It's impressive and somewhat concerning what people will pay for a name. Historic as it is Napster died long long ago

[-] wirebeads@lemmy.ca 18 points 5 days ago

I’ll go fire up limewire now. Be right back.

[-] watson387@sopuli.xyz 20 points 5 days ago

Only for the Metaverse? Ha! Guess I won't be using Napster.

[-] Exec@pawb.social 10 points 5 days ago

Yeah, next year they'll go after NFTs then a year after that they'll all in for AI.

[-] fork_hero@lemm.ee 17 points 5 days ago

Mm. Nah. I'm just confused who this is supposed to be for: people who used Napster for free music or people who say "what's a Napster?"

[-] Maiq@lemy.lol 17 points 5 days ago

Obligatory, FUCK YOU Lars Ulrich!
