I used to use Evernote to scan all my paper stuff and index it, until getting my data out of there a few years ago when it was clear they were going down the tubes have yet to find a good replacement for “I have a bunch of pdfs I want searchable and tagged,” some nerds tell me to use paperless-ng but kind of the point of paying for Evernote is I had something with higher availability than an old computer in my basement

https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/metaverse-zuckerberg-pr-hype/quote:The sheer scale of the hype inflation came to light in May. In the same article, Insider revealed that Decentraland, arguably the largest and most relevant Metaverse platform, had only 38 active daily users. The Guardian reported that one of the features designed to reward users in Meta’s flagship product Horizon Worlds produced no more than $470 in revenue globally. Thirty-eight active users. Four hundred and seventy dollars. You’re not reading those numbers wrong. To say that the Metaverse is dead is an understatement. It was never alive. Lol

I still use Evernote for everything. I'm heartbroken, but should have seen this coming. I'd told myself I'd get out when they got acquired, but somehow missed that announcement.

crypto definitely bigger than metaverse; lmk when I can buy drugs with the metaverse or run ponzis with the metaverse

yeah the hope of "I bought real estate early in what will be vr times square" is at least a reason to try to make it happen, "meetings but no legs" is not

didn't most of those crypto metaverse projects incorporate ways to earn the bullshit token in game? I remember that people would hire folks in places like the Philippines to play the game in exchange for a cut of the tokens (which were sold to others who needed them to buy their own "property"). that would hugely boost DAU, despite the fact that the users would immediately leave when the money faucet turned off.

haveblue posted:one of the core problems with the whole fad was that no one was ever able to satisfactorily answer this I remember William Gibson trying to describe what he meant when he coined the term "cyberspace". To paraphrase: "It's the place that you and another person are both at together when the two of you are talking on the phone." We ended up with a whole generation of sci-fi that was built around imagining this metaphorical thing as though it could be real, and a whole generation of tech companies attempting to manifest that sci-fi into an actual thing (that they just happen to run/own). Ultimately, though, this kind of thing can only really exist as metaphor.

leper khan posted:It's the vent server you're on while playing counterstrike It really is too. I know VR won't catch on like a Gibson novel because it didn't back when VRML was a fresh novelty. We ended up with Linden Labs and that's all we'll ever end up with. Games, fetishes, virtual tours through things. VR will probably find it's way into some creative workspaces, making 3d models for games or for actual objects that might get created. But loving nobody wants to have a meeting, nobody wants to code, no.

you'd think case having to put in a catheder to do the straylight run would have been a good warning, or maybe when maelcum tries the trodes on and goes "ugh, babylon"
