One of my big frustrations is that nobody ever talks about the energy draw of technology like this. How many ecosystems will be crushed under the weight of the need for hydropower or burned coal or whatever is used to power these things?
This is really superb, thank you! I didn't know anything about Meta or the Metaverse (other than what I now realise was a satirical cartoon at the bottom of the documentally.substack.com newsletter) so thank you for introducing me to this absolute horrorshow in such a thoughtful and funny way. It's actually bone-grindingly relevant to a play that I'm writing at the moment, so good timing!
