P&C drink and review a Christmas Ale from Great Lakes Brewing, then discuss the metaverse.

The metaverse offers very interesting options, like visiting new places, or reviewing a new house on the other side of the country. The primary business application would be better meetings, eliminating the need for travel, and possibly using VR for advanced training. It might also make more opportunities for disabled people to participate in activities.
On the negative side, there are a lot of disappointing, creepy and scary implications. Privacy will almost surely be lost. There will be less parental control, and more stalking, sexual grooming, and other nasty stuff.
Is it a good thing? Does it even matter?
