Massive ongoing improvements in AI, and hopefully less massive but still impressive improvements in humanoid robots. Both of these will actually happen, unlike a lot of stuff that I and many others would LIKE to have happen.

Similar to the early Blizzard approach in some ways. A focus on delivering a vibe done to a very high level of quality and visual coolness, while leaving risky innovation in game mechanics to others.

It’s a great option for lots of the world that is not already heavily developed, and probably a good option for ALL small remote towns globally, even if just a backup/supplemental source of power. Yay.

Agreed. History is full of unintended consequences, partially because so many things were more complicated than individuals and societies realized. There are not tons of really simple tradeoffs along the lines of ‘freedom vs safety’. I don’t think people could have imagined the future world they would bring about when they started planting crops instead of just hunting and gathering, for example.

Mud Pies incoming!

Steam them somehow. wrap in a wet paper towel or 2, then microwave for a minute, and let them sit for couple of minutes. that should help a bunch.

Finally!
