Yes virtual worlds but just based on observations. My view might change later when I read more on technical aspects. I’ve seen Fb virtual meeting demo. It looks promising if not great. Level 5 Autonomous driving has to be 100% accurate which is very difficult to achieve since human life is involved.

Time to listen to us old folks.
An extensive study in the U.S.A found that the most productive age in human life is between 60-70 years of age.
The 2nd. most productive stage of the human being is from 70 to 80 years of age.
The 3rd. most productive stage is from 50 to 60 years of age.
The average age of NOBEL PRIZE winners is 62 years old.
The average age of the presidents of prominent companies in the world is 63 years.
The average age of the pastors of the 100 largest churches in the U.S.A. is 71.
The average age of the Popes is 76 years.
This tells us in a way that it has been determined, that the best years of your life are between 60 and 80 years.
A study published in NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE found that at age 60, you reach the TOP of your potential and this continues into your 80s.
Therefore, if you are between 60 -70 or 70-80 you are in the BEST and 2nd. level of your life.

I send you this information so that you can re-think when you say that you are old 
… friends, this walk called life is just beginning 
i am a middle aged mom and I spend ALL my time on FB. its replaced the neighborhood “stoop” where people used to get their information. I mostly use FB groups, I don’t really post anymore, but I use the Buy nothing group a lot, moms groups, professional groups, hiking groups, you name it. I learn a lot. its an essential utility for me and many other people. I also buy from the ads - they are targeted fairly well at me.
middle aged people have money to spend, teenagers don’t. its a delicate balance of being “cool” vs making money.

The study says you become more productive with age. This fact has been known and celebrated by most cultures throughout history. Totally opposite of the tech generation that gives youth all the credits. And dumps old people in rest homes. Doesn’t mean that mental illness and decline can’t happen earlier. Trump and Biden both have character flaws. Both are liars. Biden has been telling big lies since the 80s. Lied about his academic record often. If you think about it…. This is the most productive time in Biden’s life. Even if the product is pure horseshit.
For all you youngsters… this is good news. The best is yet to come. Relax and enjoy the ride. I use this forum too polish my mental skills. It is like wack a ball.
You never know what criticism will come and from where.

Weird study. What kind of productivity? According to other studies, we are most productive between 30-50. In work, in making babies, in entertainment, in … After 50, is cruising time, enjoy our hardwork during 30-50. Btw, before 30 is mostly preparing and learning.
30-50… you are producing for a pay check. 60-80 you’re producing for yourself if retired. That can much more productive for your own personal growth and not just financial gains.

I see. I am not producing for myself, I am investing in those 30-50 to produce for me

“This period has also been humbling because as big of a company as we are, we’ve also learned what it’s like to build on other platforms. Living under their rules has profoundly shaped my views on the tech industry. I’ve come to believe that the lack of choice for consumers and high fees for developers are stifling innovation and holding back the internet economy.”

Exactly. Apple is evil.
MVRS is going to fail. Couldn’t acquire U and the so-called avatar system (aka NFT) is flying away.
