      : a view or picture of a scene —usually used in combination: cityscape

      Could actually make sense, but I had the same question. Also, apparently

      : a peduncle arising at or beneath the surface of the ground in an acaulescent plant (such as the tulip)

    So you can escape the real world into Zuckerbergs weirdo world where he can profit from watching and manipulating you?

    Strong pass. I’m sitting on my lawn having an icecream. Fuck you Zuckerberg.

    In a way this naming makes more sense, because an important aspect of the virtual worlds in science fiction that many people seem to idolize is that they were as appealing as they were due to a large part because the real world was such a dystopia that they were desperate for an escape from it, even if it meant living inside a world that existed only inside a computer.
