Right now the metaverse is a popular buzzword. Facebook has changed the name of its parent company to META, and the second release of the popular Oculus Quest 2 has come out with 128 GB. VR is finally going mainstream, and AR is all the talk as well, following closely behind. Smart phones have passed the $1000 USD threshold, 5G has come online, at the same time homeless encampments have sprouted everywhere.
