Two chicks at the same time.

Great! You still have billions of dollars left.

People make this sound way harder to achieve than it actually is. There’s even people who are poly for free. I don’t know how many do group sex but it’s not none, and theoretically you could be one of them.

ColeSloth,

Go watch Office Space, dude.

CanadaPlus,

Is that where it’s from? I knew it was a meme, but I just thought I’d bring up that it’s a weird one, given it’s in the responses to every question like this.

ColeSloth, (edited )

Back in its time it was an insanely popular movie and most everyone knew a few quotes from it, at least. That was one of the most remembered ones.

CanadaPlus,

Somebody tell us the dude’s cousin’s story. Usually you need a certain level of privilege to drop out.

Chicks dig guys with money!

TehBamski,
@TehBamski@lemmy.world avatar

Well yeah… but we call them gold diggers, not chicks.

trapezohedron,

Good point. I’m going with “giant robot”. Chicks dig giant robots.

showmeyourkizinti,

I know that not most woman aren’t in to a men just for his money, but the kinda chicks who will double up on a guy like me are!

Being able to photosynthesize. It wouldn’t be that hard either, we already can, just not to make food.

I don’t know how plausible this is, but a way for trans men and trans women to exchange sexual traits. There might be an answer elsewhere in that there are animals that can change sex in certain conditions so there is some biological evidence of possibility in a singular case. However it seems anti-poetic that we have genetic females who want to be genetic males and genetic males who want to be genetic females and the answer that we currently have as society is for them to go fuck themselves.

I guess for more realistic, then deep dive VR.

Silentiea,

How about a UBI? Do social policies count as technologies? They do in 4X games, so I’m going with it.

TehBamski,
@TehBamski@lemmy.world avatar

I would categorize UBI as a policy/law, more than a tech thing.

Silentiea,

Yeah. But on the other hand, isn’t civics sort of a technology too? Policies were invented, no?

I guess you could say the UBI has already been invented, but I think practical implementation is important too. Same as if I’d said we should do fusion power or something.

xep,

A better battery would be nice.

DAMunzy, (edited )

Antigravity, Durasteel, shields, cold fusion, nanotech, time travel, warp, dimension sliding/hopping, mind mapping, cryo sleep, teleportation, Positronic brain, …

dutchkimble,

This basically covers it, I’ll add replicators and holodecks

DAMunzy,

Yes, how could I miss those!!

CaptPretentious,

Very important…

Star Trek or Stargate replicators…

dutchkimble,

Indeed!

I’ll leave it to the genie to decide

xkforce,

Fusion, nuclear propulsion, nanotechnology, genetic engineering, biomining, biological fuel cells

A fully open source tech manufacturing company such as chips, gpu, ram, motherboard, connectors, ssd .etc you get the idea.

eugenia,
@eugenia@lemmy.ml avatar

I’ve been thinking along the same lines lately. A fully open source hardware and software architecture and implementation, to replace the closed “old world”.

The_wild_card,

Hell yeah but it is all a pipe dream anyway cause no corpo or billionaire is gonna do it.

Silentiea,

I imagine it would probably take someone obscenely rich choosing not to be rich anymore in order to make it happen. Which seems unlikely.

The_wild_card,

Unlikely is putting it mildly

I would stay in relatively achievable things like a sugar fuel cell or microbial food production. Things we don't quite have yet but not do to the knowledge not being there.

Olhonestjim, (edited )

I’d like to support solarpunk development. I just want to live a simple life, with high tech in cooperation with the environment. We need it badly. I would fund so many community libraries. Don’t misunderstand me though. I still want space travel, but I no longer trust capitalists with it.

Valmond,

Curing aging.

That would leave the time to see all the other inventions to come. It would also cure age related diseases like Alzheimer’s and Cancer.

Catsrules,

Is Cancer age related? I thought it could happen to anyone. But much more likely to happen when your older.

Valmond,

Well yes, but a) the immune system gobbles up bad cells, but becomes less efficient as it ages b) point mutations accumulate with age => increases the risk of cells going haywire.

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

I was hard on the r/longevity train until their figurehead (Aubury) was busted for being a sex pest and half the subreddit defended them. Aging is a disease which must be treated as such, but I have zero faith in a community that is so willing to overlook their mascot being a creep, especially not when so much research is being done by other individuals who aren’t carrying that baggage.

Valmond,

Yeah that email he sent was a bit creepy.

But that’s also the only thing anyone have found against him. And he have singlehanded brought anti aging research into our history.

You should check your sources too, because it’s Aubrey, not “Aubury”.

Omega_Haxors,

I think your client broke

Viking_Hippie,

Those machines that can make food instantly for sure. Put a few of those bad boys in the right place and we’ve solved world hunger. Also, healthy tasty food for those of us who can’t cook and can’t afford to eat at restaurants.

Granted, people in the restaurant would largely lose their job, but we can retrain them for something else like we did with stagecoach drivers, telephone operators and honest politicians before them 🤷

FISH!

I’d say budget 3D printed meals are around the corner.

Proper gourmet replicated meals, 60yrs.

Catsrules,

Farmers would also loose their jobs.

Ilikecheese,

I hate it when my job gets loose.

Catsrules,

Opps

wintermute,

Replicators! Yes!!

Some restaurants probably will still exist as a premium option. And chefs can create recipes and sell them online.

They’ll probably add DRM to it. Crap! 😬

Valmond,

Atomically Precise Manufacturing!

Might actually happen in the upcoming decades.

How far off do you think we are from this becoming a reality?
