Re: Transhumanism & Cybernetics News and Discussions

I think in the long run they will fail and be diminished. We'll have religious fascist states unfortunately for a while, but the country as a whole will never fall to the conservative wet dream. I wouldn't be so sure about that - nuances and all. Depends on what one defines as long run I guess - I'...

Re: Transhumanism & Cybernetics News and Discussions

It isn't just us gays and trans that will be banned in a religious fascist America but all progress into this and most of medical science. It will truly suck ass. Let's hope there'll be no religious fascist America then. The Republicans are trying very hard to make it happen, and their 2025 plan is...

Re: Is the US heading towards another civil war?

I kind of want the conservative states to try it just so we can finally declare the Republican party the terrorist organization it is and end Fox News and other propaganda networks pretending to be news.

Re: The fusion of the organic and synthetic

Imagine machines that can extract energy by consuming organic matter, and that have soft bodies. My dream for the future is to have the benefits of organic life and technological being. Like I don't want to hook up to a charger or stand on a wireless charging platform, and "wireless charging e...

Re: My random thoughts

Once we die in the simulation, we wake up in the Real World. I've believed this for a long time now, however crazy it sounds. It's just too much of a coincidence to be living at this point in history. Coincidence how? Some population had to live through this time in history, why not you and me?

Re: My random thoughts

Tortured artists like Sinead O'Connor, who channeled their torment into their creative works, and who would not have achieved their heights of expression and fame were it not for their pain, may seem like tragic people.

Re: New predictions for the timeline

Not so much size - but rather lots of ships that can easily and repeatedly carry enormous amounts of cargo from ground-to-orbit in seconds (ability to achieve escape velocity with lots of cargo) from anywhere on Earth. This would produce a lot of waste heat. Adding hypotheticals like warp drives an...
