Also, they will go 200 mph on these cool elevated tracks.
Sinus nanobots, mucus-evaporating radiation, pollen-specific personal force fields: these may all be the future of snot-control technology. We here at Kleenex have long understood the importance of getting boogers out of your nose, and offer a variety of styles, lotions, and decorative boxes.
Sinus nanobots
I do not want to be the first human test subject for the sinus nanobots.
Perhaps by 1964 these features will be standard…
Haha yeah. I get where they were coming from though. The 1st half the century saw an incredible explosion of scientific and technological progress. Intercontinental airplane flights instead of weeks on a ship. Electrification of homes. Television broadcasts. Eradication of entire terrible diseases. Massive progress on so many fronts.
It seems natural to think the same rate of progress will continue. So… sure, maybe another decade before we get cars that both have radar and fly and float? And that’s a thing we could have done by 1964, on a one-off highly impractical basis. It just couldn’t be economic or practical at scale.
Radar on cars would be genuinely useful
Instead, we got flatscreens replacing tactile knobs, and logging of our GPS locations for sale to the highest bidder.
The retro-future was better than the actual one we got!
Ahckshually, we got LiDAR instead.
Don’t many cars use radar for adaptive cruise control?
Do you have any idea how dangerous these cars sound? 😆
