[19:06] <Dave> Why, SDSL is expensive and not necessarily fast.
[19:06] <CrypticSquared> faster than ADSL
[19:06] <CrypticSquared> uplink anyway
[19:06] <Dave> only the uplink.
[19:07] <Velociraptors> Secure digital second life?
[19:07] <CrypticSquared> you're addicted
[19:07] <Kionon> I am no so addicted to my iphone and the fact I have internet literally everywhere I go, I now just wish I had it directly planted into my brain.
[19:07] <Dave> Ray - can you make out the dialogue of the movie ?
[19:07] <CrypticSquared> Kionon: i think i would go insane
[19:08] <Ray> Died again, must be saturated now
[19:08] <Kionon> Now that I have my iphone, I am only not online when teaching or sleeping.
[19:08] <CrypticSquared> imagine doctors raiding your brain to remove pirated tv shows
[19:08] <Kionon> lawl
[19:08] <Dave> I gotta get a better router for my cable, then I can stream with a decent uplink.
[19:09] <Kionon> dammit, I downloaded those from iNeuroTunes, what the hell are you talking about?
[19:11] <Kionon> Although, I have to agree, DRM locked neural patterns don't sit well with me either.
[19:11] <Kionon> "De-authorise Brain..."
[19:12] <Ray> low bitrate neural patterns are a worry to :P
[19:13] <Kionon> Oh, we only use an eighth of our brain, surely compression ratios don't need to be that low.
[19:15] <Kionon> Besides, by that time, maybe we would be able to plug external neural nets into the back of our head. Keep 'em on a belt pack or something.
[19:15] <Kionon> call 'em the iBrain.

I would just like to state that the idea of Apple putting any of their products into my cranium frightens me.

Replicators from Star Trek. It would be an amazing piece of engineering that could drastically change society for the better. And it is really cool :lol: Image

alt+f4 would be instantaneous suicide?
"The people cannot be [...] always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to [...] the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to public liberty. What country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not warned [...] that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants."-Thomas Jefferson

I'd like to make amvs with my mind, it would cut out all the ripping and crap, and videos would turn out more how I imagine them

Well that was part of the point of replicators, to get rid of money as the necessity for survival. It allowed for people to obtain food, water etc free. So things such as starvation etc were no longer a problem and the world was driven less by a need for money and more for a need to better themselves through technology and exploration.

Lets be serious here... if replicators existed the world would be more like WALL-E and less like Star Trek. We wouldn't get off our asses to explore our closet... let alone the galaxy.

Well, I cant speak for everyone else, but If I were offered the option to explore the universe, I would take it. :D
