(1) I am having a Barbi, and you are all invited, to "watch me" munch through big ribs, fresh home made burgers and a great salads, and cream cakes

There are actually a lot of people who make big money doing exactly that.

I don't think I would, unless there was some circumstance, where, I knew for sure, there was no chance of anything else beside it; and it was a sort of mutual thing and understanding built around that circumstance.

Simple answer, however, I think, is no. No matter how much sci-fi and technology comes out, people need to be able to experience each other and share experience together. And we don't seem to have technology like in the movie, 'The Matrix,' where we could do those things, mediated by a computer...

Never saw the Big Bang Theory? There's a long distance kissing machine lol. I'd be curious to find a willing participant and test that thing out. Probably costs an arm and a leg.

Too funny

I believe there are ways and a space for real intimacy online with someone we love as long both sides understand limitations and accept them. Not easy, not always possible, not with everyone.
