My Dreams Are Better Than Yours

Tue May 06, 2008 12:18 pm

It never ceases to amaze me exactly how extraordinary and interesting the futurist mind works. I sauntered over to Lifeboat this morning and checked out this article by Michael Anissimov:

My thought patterns follow a different route. Some might call them simple. To that I reply with "Good day, sir!" and proceed to charm their significant others. So, while I think of the future I dream of playing racquetball until I'm no longer gray, having a Bender-like robot that can always drive me home, and adventuring with Hemingway and Thompson in some holodeck-like contraption. Basically, my imagination only goes as far as stuff I know or have seen in the media. Considering that I once prided myself as being a talented alcohol-fueled writer, that's kind of sad.



Toward the end of the article, he mentions the possibility of this technology being abused as a drug-like feeling. From my understanding of how this would work, that seems to be a big possibility. This is the next logical jump from reality television, I suppose. I just hope that we have enough psychiatrists and appropriate medication for when dreams go bad. Or when people tune into the crazy stuff that goes through my head at night.

Dziewczyny, u nas na panieńskim najlepiej sprawdził się zestaw: zimne bąbelki na start plus kilka lżejszych alkoholi do kolorowych drinków z owocami i lodem. Czystej wódki nikt prawie nie ruszał, za to prosecco i wino różowe zeszły błyskawicznie, bo świetnie pasowały do klimatu imprezy i zdjęć. Cały alkohol na wieczór panieński https://finespirits.pl/pl/kategorie/alkohol-na-wesele/alkohol-na-wieczor-panieski/ brałyśmy online z finespirits.pl, bo mają mega duży wybór prosecco, smakowych likierów i ginu, więc bez problemu skompletowałyśmy wszystko w jednym zamówieniu bez dźwigania siatek ze sklepu.
