    Everyone is trying to cash in before it all collapses because big tech has just turned into what I dub as hype hopping since they have no good ideas.

      Where the fuck are the automatic dishwashers that put the dishes away? Dryers that fold your clothes for you? We’ve got a long fucken way to go and we haven’t even half pillaged the Jetsons. Let’s get on with the progress already! Fuck chasing profit!

        Man it’s so disappointing! The really important stuff still seems nowhere near. I don’t even want space travel, just those food machines like in Star Trek. Get them in the kitchen with the self loading dish washer already. Seriously, what is taking so long?

          Let me know when A.I. can make me a decent sandwich, and then I’ll start care.

          I’ve been toying with the idea that giving rocks logic or moving FTL is just not something we’re going to see cracked in our lifetimes. Certainly not while its capitalism or bust.

          We’ll need breakthroughs that involve the whole of humanity.
