Happily, I will spend not one iota of thought worrying about this. I find it amusing that people not only think about this but spend real money addressing it. There are companies genuinely 'worrying' about it. Nike today announced the acquisition of a company called RTFKT - a purveyor of non-fungible tokens for virtual shoes. O brave new world. That has such people in't? Your post is the first time that I have seen/heard of the "metaverse", whatever that may be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's partly why the corporate entity, formerly called Facebook, recently changed it's name* to Meta Platforms. They will at some point broadly launch a "Metaverse" virtual world platform. * There were probably other reasons too, related to their Instagram platform. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameronL Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 5 hours ago, Steamport Southport said: You need a Sat Nag.... I'm sorry, Steamport Southport. I could only give this post a round of applause. I'd also use the "Like", "Agree", and if possible the "Have You Been Spying On Me?" options. My personal SatNag would also include - "Did we remember the (insert item here)?" (to be used when we're three miles from home) "There's a space over there." (to be used when halfway through a reverse park manoeuvre.) "Why are we going this way?" (from someone who couldn't find their way out of a telephone box). "We won't fit through there." (We always do) "Shouldn't we have turned left there?" (No, we shouldn't) "Can we just stop on the way for a (insert item here)?" (Do we really have to? No, we don't.) And not to mention, last of all, the completely missed turning when using Google Maps because the "navigator" has got bored with telling the driver when to turn and is on Facebook rather than keeping an eye on the directions. Not so much SatNag as SatBollocksToIt. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) Just had the annual charity Santa Tractor thing go past. Much bigger than last year. Something like 200 of them all bedecked with lights and stuff! Wouldn't want to be stuck behind it though..... Not my video. It did look better IRL.
