And yet I'm still without a flying car. :/ Or a round house on stilts (like the Jetsons). You call this living??
I was promised a personal jetpack for commuting and a domed city on the moon!
It's like nobody even listened to the people who made EPCOT.
I know, and here I am walking around using my legs to walk around like some kind of idiot. And living in an apartment full of GRAVITY for god'ssakes. Isn't this supposed to be the 21st century?!! Where's my ice palace on the moon?? And my moon maidens in anti gravity maid costumes waiting on my every need??
"We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives."
Apparently they were too woke at Epcot.
Good news, houses on stilts were invented like 7000 years ago
I’m sure that conveyor belt that just takes you from the front door to the next room breaks down a lot.
I may as well be stranded in China if they expect me to walk two feet from one room to the next. Where's my anti-gravity pants??
May be there’s a way to use tech to illegally infringe on people from the sky even more, then you might be onto something. Just think like a government then a capitalist in that order. May be some kind of flying device that spies on people like a blanket satellite network that operates 100m above peoples homes. It can monitor people coming and going from your home like a real time google maps/street view. Use facial recognition on an angle with high zoom lenses to build a richer advertising/intellegence profile of peoples movements and activities to fill the gaps that mobile phone/mic spying lets through plus it could be used to look into peoples windows and through the gaps in their curtains/blinds. Make sure you pollute the air a fair bit, turn them into gay frogs. And also make them flying cars. The government can call it OBSNAD - the Opressive Blanket Spy Network Aerial Dome and we regular folk can call it Good Times Flying Cars
We're getting to the house on stilts part. Just need to let the ice caps melt a little bit more.
It's true, I heard about that part of iceland that just got wiped out from rising sea levels. It's already a reality. And polar bears starving because their ice sheets are melting and leaving them without a way to hunt for food. I won't be around to see the next century, and I've very glad I won't be!!
