I’ve just been reading about how in the future, AI will allow us to speak with animals, and people will be able to communicate telepathically and live in their own VR worlds. (etc., etc.)
Man, this isn’t a world I want to live in. I’m so tired of the constant paradigm shifting that you have to put your brain through with each innovation. I wish technology just stayed frozen in the 1980s, there would be so much less uncertainty in my life and I could just focus on being a human.
Innovation keeps being forced on you and I just feel tired. >!And I’m only just in my 20s!< Is this ok? Is this valid? When resisting it is a loser’s game…
What magic car do you own that doesn’t pollute?
Chevy Bolt. It hasn’t polluted since I bought it.
Yes, I am aware that electricity production often comes from fossil fuels. Yes, I’m aware of the pollution that stems from mining and manufacturing. You’re right that a train would be more efficient. Yes, you’re right that I’m a bad person who should know better. What else ya got?
Why are you 3 kids in a trenchcoat mr guy , dude,man?
Because how else are we gonna score beer at the Circle-K?
Bicycle
Human engine != Pollution free.
Humans need to move around to be healthy regardless, so any energy consumed to pedal a bike is immaterial.
Though I guess if the person in question just died that would be even more pollution free.
