Providing for the needs of all.
A functional healthcare system.
We have one!
Oh wait, you don’t lol
A global functional healthcare system, silly, not just for your local residents.
Advanced cybernetics. From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel.
It’s saddening to see the slow slow progress of cybernetics.
Me too. Every morning I wake up and scream in existential terror at the slimy corpuscle that is enveloping my soul.
You what?!
Reasonable justice reforms for social media used as public alert and communication systems, AI, crypto, gaming, etc to regulate new markets emerging from new tech to prevent predatory monetization policy and monopolies causing increased wealth centralization and patent trolling slowing down technical innovation in general.

From the perspective of a kid in the 70s, I thought for sure some level of space colonization, whether it be a Moon colony or O’Neill type settlements. Along with that would be moving industry into space to tap unlimited resources and allow the Earth to heal.
Just because there are nearly unlimited resources out there, doesn’t mean we won’t keep abusing the ones down here.
First we sent small animals into space: a dog, then monkeys.
After that: people.
And then we stopped. I expected that we would have sent cows, horses, maybe even hippos or elephants by now.
What would be the point?
“we do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard.”
But really I was just pretending to misunderstand the early test flights as a progression of sending larger life-forms, and that we should continue sending larger and larger animals.
A blue whale would be impressive.
OH I CAN SEE THE WHAAAAAAAALES
LOOOOMING OUT OF THE DAAAAARK
South Park tried it
And a bowl of petunias.
Not again!
Very suspicious if you ask me
Maybe there’s a secret program that They don’t want us to know about.
Maybe they don’t want to go
Still waiting for my personal jetpack and/or flying car
Most people can’t be trusted operating a ground-dwelling vehicle, I’m fine with not having flying ones yet.
ROCKETMAN
I really want to try a powered paraglider. Seems fairly accessible. Costs no more than a used car. Curious about the legality/feasibility of using it to get around…
Flying cars and hover boards
Bluetooth that works. The ability to email large files. Low cost broadband. The right to repair. Not lose the ownership of digital media.
Please don’t use email for file transfer. Its not designed for that. Upload your attachment somewhere and add a link to your email.
Also printers that work
It’s been a long, long while that I’ve had any issues with any Bluetooth device.
Can you listen to music or watch a movie while on a discord call using the hands-free microphone in your Bluetooth headset? Full duplex audio still halves the nominal bitrate for both the microphone and media playback audio; same as when the HSP/HFP protocols we’re first showcased in 1999. It’s ridiculous, especially now that very few flagship devices still include a headset jack.
Digital media just kills me. Back in the CD and DVD days I sent back a bunch of discs that were too scrarched to use and i would get coupons to replace them. Often times the publishers included an extra one just because they didn’t want you to pirate stuff. Buying physical media meant you licensed it even when you physically couldn’t so they were compelled to solve the problem.
Antigravity looked like the clear favourite for scientists, but then they all went into astronomy and the age of the universe.
Not backsliding into feudalism?
You don’t like the extra steps we added?
something like tricorders, they’d be kinda usefull for medical personel or engineers, of course they wouldn’t be as advanced as in tng, but still
also I’ll get one as soon as they’re invented
I’m more concerned with the things we had a few years ago that are now gone, and the new fascist hand me downs that are popping up everywhere.
High speed rail.
It’s insane Amtrak is the best we got. You should be able to go from Orlando to New York in hours, cheaply.
