More sci-fi crap

Yeah. I’m still waiting on my flying car.

In typical sci-fi fashion, they’re only telling us about possible good. No mention of the ability to control people or punish them for lack of compliance. And what is the backout or recovery process? Is it even possible to remove them? Perhaps standing close enough to an EM emission or getting hit by a bolt of lightning will fix it?

I’m increasingly become hesitant to get any sort of shot. Used to be that tetanus boosters were de rigeur, and now I’m even doubting I’ll do that the next time around. Someone needs to tell these people that some of us don’t want to “live forever.” My reward is in Heaven.

I’ve noticed one thing about free republic. There are a lot of uninformed people here.

Nanotechnology has so far failed to deliver useful devices. Indeed, we have a collection of parts but no real nanobots at all.

In time, biological nanobots are likely to be developed, but they will have limited and selective applications. More accurately, they will not even be nanobots but human cells that have been modified to carry out various tasks like attacking diseased cells, creating drugs in the body, or eliminating harmful proteins and other compounds.
