11:00:11LuciferI have to bug out before noon cause some people are coming to look at the house
11:00:16Sat"objective" or subjective time?
11:00:27SatBecause for me it doesn't start for an hour.
11:00:34Sat* Sat nods
11:00:41LuciferWelcome to the Virus weekly chat!
11:00:46Luciferfirst one in almost 4 years
11:00:57Sat* Sat appluads politely
11:00:57Lucifertoday's topic was suggested by Sat
11:01:04LuciferDominion Theory
11:01:29Satthe 4 year isn't completely accurate. we used to chat in SL
11:02:12Luciferok, 4 years since the last archived chat
11:02:54Luciferwhich also took place in SL
11:02:58SatSo, ya. Anyhow. Back in the day Lucifer and I were speculating about virtual worlds post-singularity, and we came up with dominion theory.
11:03:16Luciferso what is the basic idea?
11:03:34LuciferI envision a future that contains a multitude of virtual worlds
11:04:00LuciferEveryone that is online will have the ability to create their own world with their own rules
11:04:02MoEnzyme* MoEnzyme has returned
11:04:12SatI seem to remember the essence being that one could create worlds which for all purposes are real, and each world would have it's own rules.
11:04:23Lucifer* Lucifer nods
11:04:26Luciferwb Mo
11:04:32SatWithin those worlds one would be bound by the rules, etc.
11:04:52SatI also remember thinking of a dominion as an extension of one's own psyche, in a sense
11:05:28LuciferDominions will compete for people to visit
11:05:34MoEnzymePerhaps then we should call it "virtural cominion theory", to distinguish it from dominionism.
11:05:39SatFor me the idea is inspired by the LaVeyan idea of total environments and Localroger's PI novel.
11:05:43Luciferbut visitors will have to play be rules or be banished
11:06:17LuciferYou can call it what you like, Mo
11:06:18MoEnzyme"virtual dominion theory" even.
11:06:21Satand rules could include things like once you enter you cannot leave "alive."
11:06:36LuciferThere are dozens of uses of "dominion"
