WHERE ARE ALL THE ROBOTS?

Category: Tech
Sunday, April 7th, 2002 @ 05:07 am

Posted By girlygirl

I'm going to pose the question..."What kind of inventions do you think we will see in the next 10 years?" or "What would you like to see, as far as advances in technology?".
I can think of a ton of things that would make my life easier.
I know that everyone, nowadays, is in such a hurry to get from point a to point b. So, who's working on the teleporter? And the flying car?

When I think of the robots I would like to see in the near future; something a lot less bulky than the Honda robot comes to mind. I want to see the ones that are actually going to be helpful in our everyday activities. And the ones that are going to help us out at work...because all anyone really wants is to work less and relax more. Where is the robot that is going to serve up a cool beverage when I get home from my "not so hard" day at work?

Well, at least they're getting the fighting out of the way now. So they can concentrate on loving the work that they're doing for mankind. Come on people, lets get a little more advanced than this.

Why don't you just ask for a nice pair of tits and you don't have to wait in line.

something else i'd like for the future-
a mini-chainsaw that i could put on my keyring. this sort of thing may seem absurd at first, but think of how much shorter lines would be if you had one.

(COMPLAIN ABOUT WORK)In the future, I want network administrators, and non-network administrators that pretent to be them, to realize that Active Directory is a piece of useless shit and that installing just because you can is fucking moronic.(/COMPLAIN ABOUT WORK)

Well, since I already have my immotality rings, I should be able to see everything there is in the future. I mean, the theory on teleportation device already exists, so all we need to do is make it happen. This man is a genius and my own hero...

Inventions I want to see:

The Penis Mightier, enhancement that works (TM)

Outpatient surgery to make me two inches taller

Cure for aging

Barring the preceding invention, Viagra already exists. At the very least I'll be a spry albeit disgusting old bastard.

That's all I ask.

I'm sort of stuck between digging old stuff and craving super advanced super technology..in a limbo if you will, my labia stretched between the two to the brink of snapping.

a lot of cool crap has already been invented. the problem is the companies that own the patents don't know how to market new stuff and don't want to compete with their own products.

transportation? forget about the flying cars. too much money wrapped up in the current automobiles(interstates, factories,oil industry, etc). flying cars offer more problems than solutions.

teleporters? ha! even if one was invented tomorrow(or last week... who knows?) there would be years and years of testing. The military would be hard pressed to let that technology out of the bag. Instant land invasions anyone?

Video games seem to be the only area of technology that is actually pushed as fast as possible(computers too I guess...). Competition is fierce and new technology is what sells. I think the most interesting advances in the next ten years will be in computers, video games, and related technology. Wireless devices, faster speeds, larger displays, digital paper maybe...
