Marvelous future? Sure, until that big pipe gets cloged with spam and you end up without any of the services you need in your daily life (Like electricity, the phone and porn) and I guess not having water and gas would be pretty inconvenient too.
Who doesn't? I've been putting mantraps everywhere and still this place is full of humans. They're a true plague these days. Think I'm going to have to call an exterminator.
If they're simply going to replace it then why make them waste the paper?
1)Pick up bibles in hotel room.
2)sell them back to Gideons.
3)Profit!
But if Gideons can spread their religious material in Hotel rooms, why can't I spread my religiouse material (pr0n) there? I guess the world isn't ready for the spiritual enlightment of Big Hooters Magazine.
You call that abuse? Better use it on floors. Project a satelite image of Earth on it. Then lure someone who's affraid of heights in there and lock the door.
And if we add the same technology to the walls and ceiling, we can make to room look bigger and bigger. Must be 'fun' for someone with agorafobia.
We can call that the Panic Room.
And then managers can just plug it all into a roller coaster tycoon type of live simulation, and fire people by tossing them into the water:)
I was thinking of Dungeon Keeper. All it needs is a big floating hand to pick up employees and drop them back were they belong or hit them to make them work harder.
Shit, I'm so fucking happy to not live in the fucking US. At least here we've got the fucking right to use fucking obscene words when we fucking feel like it. No shit.
Can't they just leave choice-of-words to the people themselves? What's the whole thing about curse words? I've always seen them as mere exclamation marks. Oh well, I guess some people's hobby is limiting other people's freedoms.
You'd end up reinventing the wheel. Nature has already worked out the solutions to alot of the problems. Would make sense to use those solutions, considering the complexity of building a functional macromolecule.
Perhaps them being a food source isn't so bad. Might help in preventing them from escaping. Keep their rate of reproduction lower than the rate in which they are eaten by bacteria. Use a katalyst in their workspace to speed up their reproduction. No need to keep the workspace sterile.
Except the nanobots would have no natural predators (assuming they aren't organic).
Which they might be. I think it's weird that nanobots are always drawn as robots scaled to cell size. Nanobots wouldn't be mechanical, they would be chemical, just like bacteria. Why would anyone try to scale down an electromotor if nature has already demonstrated better ways to propel a nanomachine?
Machine A, Trys to hack machine B. In the combined code has the abilitys of both.. Repeat over and over again and in time it might be able to think and act on its own.
I guess that's why you should keep all your devices in differend rooms. Who would know what would happen if your microwave assimilated the toaster...
What is the proper way to behave when the world ends?
I guess it would suck if we would reincarnate.
I mean:
10 world burst into flames
20 Everybody dies a horrible death.
30 Everybody reincarnates.
40 goto 20

Free wireless electricity is already available in most parts of the world. It's called lighting.
Considering they came up with the word "micro-ordinateur", the thought of learning what word they'll come up with for "open source" scares me.
The bullets fired at your car and the car bombs are free of charge too.
I'm not a racist, I misstreat all people equally.
You didn't need that freedom consumer 718736. Freedom and privacy only lead to piracy. We're going to keep a close eye on you.
I see a whole new market for rubber underwear....
How do you mean "started"? Big Hooters have been worshiped for millenia. It's the number one religion in the world. Aren't you a believer?

Guess quantum computers are going to be RFIDs best friend.
I was thinking about SCO hiring this guy. But posting that would be karma whoring.
I wish they would do another tour in Flanders. I would know what to wear.
what to bring along.
And where to get someone to get me out of prison again.
It's happening right now. Exciting times ahead. Better pay attention to it, 'cus this is something you'll be telling to your (grand)children.
See X-prize.

Good idea! Let us know in which prison you end up. We'll send you a postcard and a soft pillow to sit on after showers.
