I don't remember much about Second Life apart from when I tried it I managed to get a coffee cup stuck in my head. And that shortly after I first went in I came across a machine where you could buy yourself a horse penis.
I remember going into houses where people would tell you to fuck off because it was "private property" or something, which seemed a bit daft. And for a while companies were building stuff in there thinking it would be like the metaverse haha
@llamasoft_ox i can't tell what's more impressive, the companies being suckered into going virtual in second life, or the repeat offenders who fell another time for the metaverse
@AngharadHafod @llamasoft_ox i remember visiting the defunct IBM sim in SL a couple of years ago and it was a wonderful ghost town. in a corner somewhere i found a few pieces of clothing packaging, meaning someone with edit rights to that land went there to unpack something for their avatar, likely some time after it went abandoned. wonderful environmental storytelling
@mavica_again @llamasoft_ox and yet it's still there. The big companies are gone, but the virtual world lives on.
