The future in Back To The Future Part II was supposed to be a jocular exaggeration. Of course, so was Demolition Man, but I'm sitting here watching those events unfold in real life.

Yeah, we're all going to be replaced with robots soon.
It actually amazes me how far things have come. Hell, I didn't even know computers came with videocards any greater then 64mb's until a few years ago. And now I saw a computer advertised by Dell with 760 some mb's. So it makes me wonder if at some point things are just gonna be bigger by default (like operating systems) or in order to run os's we're gonna need some computer capable of doing everything, and the kitchen sink.
there gonna use blue light wavelengths in computer machinery, so its gonna get a lot smaller
But I can barely catch up now! ; ;
I think that if you were to look at the technology we have now in 100 years time it would be even more vast a comparison than looking at the technology we had in 1907. With all the discoveries in the 20th century and all the vast technological improvements and scientific progress, we're in a brilliant position to build on such achievements and go on to bigger and greater things. I really don't think that 2107 will involve people laughing at how primitive our current technology is, but I think it'll be quite a startling comparison.
I don't think it matters. We're just going to blow it all up eventually.
We won't go much farther. We could, but before we do it will destroy us all.
Wouldn't that be awesome?
I still don't understand this "We're going to blow ourseves up!" thing. If it didn't happen during the Cold War, imo it shows it's bloody unlikely to happen, full stop.
Edit: Also, once we get self-sustaining space colonies, we'll kinda win at survival.
