There’s still a metaverse budget?
It’s Zuck’s biggest personal passion project.
Bezos wanted to go to space, Gates wanted to cure malaria.
Zuckerberg wants to be a fucking Mii.
Zuckerberg just wants to build his own universe way he’s in charge of everything and everything costs money and there no taxes.
You can bet there were picture ideas such as paying people with game money.
Sunk cost at this point lots of large companies bought space when it was “launching”
Imagine how much value would have been created if the several hundreds of billion spent on the shitty VR sims went to wages, or taxes or healthcare.
But no. We should all marvel at the efficiency of the oligarchy!
