I realized that I have still not yet read Snowcrash. I wonder how it has stood the test of time? Still fresh? I wonder how it compares to stuff from Peter Watts such as Blindsight, Echopraxia etc? (He also wrote this piece on the current situation: https://www.rifters.com/crawl/?p=9224 )

Closest P. Watts book would be "Maelstrom" from Rifters trilogy. Watts doesn't go that deep when it comes to ideas about society, culture etc And Snow Crash is a more fun (most Watts book are devoid of fun).

we definitely live in a science fiction novel, I'm just not sure which one. there are aspects of Isaac Asimov's "The Naked Sun": the Solarians fear of personal contact and the tension between the earthmen and spacers.

Anybody got an extra personal nuclear device for sell? Preferably with a kill switch that activates when my heart stops? Send me the eBay link. Oh, also buying up rat things, swords, poons, 14yo white girls, and sea rafts. Gotta get my inventory up, never know who we'll meet

Nah. They seemed to have something like a working, non-pyramid-scheme blockchain.

Are you aware of all the blockchain based mere verse worlds being created right now? It’s one of the reasons I’m into non-fungible tokens.
