Hmm. Fair point. I guess I've just gained some new perspective then. How nice, I've matured. [sarcasm/]Volstag9 said:
That's how I expect it to go down. I don't see too many of these being bad, I like that England will become more socialist and that various countries in the developing world will be better off and have democracy, but I dislike that the US will be even more right wing and clashing with England (possibly the entire UK) because of persisting resentment for communism and leftist ideology.
And, of course, war will persist. War never changes.

also the stuff in Michio Kaku's Science of the Impossible.
because he said lightsabers in as little as 50 years with nanotech. and i want to have a lightsaber before i hit a midlife crisis (i read something about meds that may let us live to 150 by as early as 2025.)

Bleak. Overpopulation, a lack of resources, a lack of employment, "every man for himself" capitalism, war, fuel costs driving up the cost of everything else.
For every one person you see today two or more will rise within the first 20-24 years, which means that in approximately 36-45 years for every one person there will be six or more new people.
Future's going to be bleak, crowded, and brutal.

In a hilarious twist of fate, you get bitten by a vampire and spend eternity in ageless undeath.GenericAmerican said:
OT: Space. People will live there. And it will be Awesome. Also, we won't disappear when the sun burns out, because do you honestly believe we cannot achieve interstellar colonization in 5 BILLION freaking years?
To quote Ridley Scott on the production of Blade Runner: "The future is old"
As in, there will be new stuff but most cities will be older like medieval cities in Europe. So like that new shopping centre built last week will be like a tourist attraction in a thousand years.
depressing

My version of the future is the logical conclusion to human kind's actions so far. A giant smoking ball of wrecked buildings and dead people. With any luck the humans will knock themselves off and maybe some plants can take over as the dominate life-form. But I'd settle for intelligent mold...
Hahahahaha, oh you guys.
Absolutely nothing.
The cars will be the exact same with better gas mileage, everybody is going to remember what a good president Barrack Obama was and how terrible their current president is, and touch screens are going to slowly weed themselves out.
This is the next fifty years by the way. In 1960, people thought our cars would look like bubbles. Literally nothing world changing will happen. China won't take over (their economy is shittier than the US, not to mention they have extremely limited resources), The US will most likely remain the big powerhouse of the world.

Tell me why? Why should text speak warrant such hate like this? It's a faster, easier way of communicating. Useless words and ways of speaking have been killed out over the centuries for being needlessly complicated to use, this is no different.binnsyboy said:
