    “Virtual real estate” is a concept disproved by saying it out loud.

      It’s just fancy word for buying ad space on a website.

        It gets dumber and weirder than that.

          Second life was so ahead of it’s time.

            The trolling when the first second life millionaire hosted a forum in second life, and some whimsical idiots made 100s of literal flying dicks dive bomb the conference.

            Meta spending billions on legs when the real answer was right there in front of them.

            Unlease the dicks.

            And what everyone I knew there wanted was a version they could run and organize themselves, to avoid renting six triangles at a digital trailer park.

              Sounds like there needs to be a fediLife. Want virtual property? Host it yourself. Or find someone kind enough to carve off a chunk of theirs and let you use it

                So, any text or image host, but bringing back VRML.

                  I’m all for it. An open schema for federated VR . Would probably need to be more than just a model of the space, as the server would need to host users, but that’s just a matter of hacking VRChat at this point

                    If it’s ephemeral and real-time, it might as well be P2P. Especially if the goal is small spaces anyone can host.

                    MMO, no, MUD, yes.

      There’s no place like virtual real estate.

        Kids - if you really wanna piss off your parents, buy real estate in an imaginary place.
