It remains funny to me that futurism.com became mostly about covering the dystopia we live in.
The future is going to be amazing! Well, it has the potential to be amazing if we use tech the right way. No I mean, like in an ethical way. Without exploiting people. No not like that, in a way that helps people. Well yes, billionaires are people, but I meant... at least it should be in legal ways. Or at least policed. Not hostile to average people. Not an openly criminal endeavour. Maybe just dont criminalise resistance to it? ... oh, actually the future is going to be a techno-monopolistic dark age, I see. We can pivot to covering that.
Yeah that's a shame, electronics seems to have reached a level where most people just don't need or dream of a better something (PC, phone, etc) and other tech is hard to grasp like biotech.
Not, like, "haha" funny...
