    We could just explore, try to learn new interesting things, and have campy holodeck adventures with Mark Twain.

    I don’t think the current rich people would approve. But screw’em if we have replicators

      The economy would crash and millions of people would starve. I wish I were kidding. We humans are really fucking dumb.

        Ultimately I plan on subscribing to the Mark Twain VR OnlyFans on my Meta headset. It’ll be $20/mo for the ad supported tier. The ads will be directly loaded into my neural link so I can’t look away.

      That sounds cute until some rich asshole sets up his own anti-matter reactor to run their own holodecks with content and filters removed. I’m thinking he sets it up on a remote asteroid and invites his other rich asshole friends. Except he secretly records them and uses it to set up a blackmail network.

      He’d probably have to have some weird alien name like, Kah-Epstein.
