A control to turn up the intelligence on television and social media. ("There's one marked 'brightness' but it don't work, does it?"-- Gallagher)

2023-04-14 01:33:45 +0000 UTCFlying car, invisibility cloak, lightsaber, a Tardis, and the ability to physically enter cyberspace are what I can think of off the top of my head.

2023-04-13 19:00:16 +0000 UTCI think this will become real someday, simply because it's logical and the technology is either here or coming into reality, just a matter of making it all work together: glasses with lenses made of some sort of flexible material that can reshape itself depending on the distance between you & what you're looking at - no more switching between reading, distance or no glasses at all. (I'm just not going to hold my breath waiting for someone to invent it, probably still several decades away.)

2023-04-13 14:36:03 +0000 UTCDepends whether it'd be widely available or just for me. In the latter case, I wouldn't want many people to know about it, so that rules out anything hard to use discreetly. I'm thinking I'd like one of the many fictional talking pets. It'd be sweet to hear one call me Dad.

2023-04-13 13:02:31 +0000 UTCIt's a hard question. It seems like we are developing more and more of those formerly fictional items. Considering what can go wrong with existing tech, I'd be very wary of using the Transporter.
