  • Can you imagine a world where all the things in this series have been achieved? It would be nearly unrecognizable from where we live today. Money would lose it's meaning. Would we have to work 40hr a week jobs? People could live as they want and we could finally get rid of this slavery that we call employment.

    I know! It's so annoying! I hate leaving a series unfinished. Fortunately I've seen this many times, so I know how it ends, but....

    (sigh).

  • -all your nutrients. Everything has to be scanned and rescanned non stop to be replaced in the same position, millions of kilmeters away. Or light years.

    What this gentleman is speaking of really isnt actual teleportation. It's transference of information to the body already waiting for you on the other end. Essentially send your entire info into a new body, organic or inorganic.

    (this will really fuck with the theists' haha).

    So it's really a Re essemblar.

  • Teleportation is (as a lamen commenting and knowing little what I know), is impossible.

    Think aobut it. You'd have to map out the x,y,z of all the atoms moving constantly in your body. Because it (the telporter) would need to rebuild you exactly as it originally scanned you. To the last atom. It has to be so because imagine if you got reatomized without an ear, or an eye. Or worse, to be reatomized to resemble a Picasso painting. Not to mention all the bacteria, and fluids in your body. All -

    -off everyday work is a nice thought. But think about the possibilities. You sit at home all day. Everything's taken care of for you. you have everythng you need. Shirts meded/ironed. Foods great. You dont gain weight due to a special pill. No sickness.

    You have nothing left to look forward to. No thrift. No meaning in life. Suddenly, working everyday for somethng you cared for, seems to be a self-fulfilling 'therapy'.

    But it's a good discussion, isnt it.

    -this lady places a boulder inside a micor wave. And takes out a thanks giving sized turkey, already made and prepared within a press of a button and five seconds of waiting. Now, I dont think that impossible someday. Certainly not within at least 3 generations form now. Who knows.

    As to the jobs. I think that having a job would be almost a privilage, because there would be hardly any jobs to go round. Especially if / when robots are ubiquitous, like computers are today. Striking-

    I think if there was a machine that could replicate anything, especially food of all kinds, it woudl eliminate all desperation. The only things we'd be perhapse payiung for is transport. Or a bigger flat to live in. Property.

    Maybe a vehicle.

    But starvation would never be a problem. Or materialistic needs. All the basics of human desires would be met.

    But I've also wondered the same thing since I was abouot 7 years old. I saw this episode in this tv series called Ark 2. This -

  • "If a self assembler ever does become possible, that's gonna be one of history's great 'holy shit' moments." - Could not have said it better myself.

  • where is visions 20? :)

  • @saxquiz I can imagine.

  • @eyhexs Well said Paine
