Metawatch. (Formerly known as Facebookwatch.)

Calling it now, there’s going to be a congressional hearing about this so that the left wing can drag the right’s ass for a week straight. The left accused the right of doing this tactic for many years and now the conservatives got their hand stuck in the monkey trap for all to see.

This also provides a good way to identify which local “news” organizations are pushing corporate PR designed as news.

I’ve not been on here for a few months, but, really, is that actually a thing?
If so, ashamed for my sex :frowning:

Sorry, it’s short for “The Brown Eye of Sauron”.

It’s also pretty burny so it’s hard to tell from the picture.

Some other nicknames employees “lovingly” refer to him as include:

  • Emperor Palpatine
  • The Sheriff of Nottingham
  • HAL 9000
  • Keyser Söze
  • Gordon Gekko

His employees just love him so much—they refer to him as almost any movie “hero”.

I really had to check if that was a parody headline. It would have been a good one, I might still want to pretend it was.

Horizon Worlds is a network of shared 3D spaces that is currently exclusively available on Oculus Quest headsets. (Meta has plans to bring it to mobile, game consoles, and desktop VR in the coming months and years.)

When users purchase an item in Horizon Worlds, Meta confirmed to CNBC that it would take a 25 percent cut—but that’s after any amount a hardware platform might take. Right now that just means Meta’s Oculus store, which takes a 30 percent cut. So content creators will have to hand over 30 percent to the Oculus store (or the applicable percentage for whatever platform stores Horizon Worlds ends up on later, like Google Play), then they’ll have to cede 25 percent of what’s left to Horizon Worlds.

:thinking: Second Life at least seems to have reached some sort of moderated equilibrium with the fetish crowd. Meta sounds like it’s failing on every level…
