We’re already at the point of hiding from the T.V. to write privately in your journal, and the state can put you on trial for erasing your phone memory, so that’s neat. I can’t imagine we’re too far away from getting a knock on your door if you don’t have any devices plugged in that they can monitor you through. Establishing personal privacy will eventually be considered reasonable suspicion. “What exactly are you trying to hide from us?”
Gamefaqs at the library to get cheat codes for Duke Nukem.
No.
Edit: Still no.
I learned that same lie from that liar ass little dinosaur cartoon fucker.
Sure, that’s what happened.
Hegemony is still a de facto type of government, the kind that gives us warlords and warring states.
Seriously, are you a child? I can’t imagine someone older than maybe 16 who could still be stupid enough to think and believe this kind of tripe.
Cool things don’t have an expiration date. That’s a depressing as fuck way to look at life.
See, it’s this kind of shit, this is exactly why people can’t fucking stand contrarians. Jesus fucking christ, get a life.
It did. Do you not understand the difference between invention and first concept? I never gave them credit for everything, but it’s indisputable that the cell phone was inspired directly by Star Trek communicators, that is according to the inventor of the first cell phone, as well as the concept of multi-funtion interface devices which is exactly what you’re likely holding in your hand at this very moment which is also a cell phone.
Feel free to die on that hill, but what I’m saying is an objective fact.
Classic hegemonist nonsense.
Nowhere did I say they invented anything nor predicted the future. Learn some reading comprehension.
You’re a capitalist hegemonist that believes in ideologically inconsistent and incompatible sovereign citizen nonsense.
You want warring states politics.
You’re a conservative, Javert, the only one buying your lies is you.
Enact consequences.
I have never seen anyone put so much effort and confidence into being this fucking wrong and stupid.
You really know how to make it look difficult, Javert.
Your feathers are showing, Javert.
Star Trek introduced a lot of the first concepts of what we currently use as every day technology, it had a first hand tangible impact on the lives of pretty much every human alive today.
Some of us simply do not accept that kind of invasive and authoritarian bullshit, especially considering that what you watch is the least concerning of your private actions and information that they are actively and constantly gathering and transmitting. Some folks give a fuck about the ownership of themselves and their privacy.
It’s going to be a one way or the other kind of deal, we’ll see how it shakes out.
