The future is wild, and it's the most boring dystopian hellscape William Gibson could have ever imagined.

Yeah, I wish there was more neon everywhere, that would at least make it look interesting.

In the future we will less devices that encourage people to move their body, not new and novel ones. Look forward to the Hover Rascal coming in 2050!

yeah but not like you'd want

we're barely figuring out how to get brain waves to operate robotic limbs (that is p cool though I grant you), the VR is all about loving anime waifus, and the ultra drugs aren't really better than some good E at the end of the day. I'm talking about like the Judge Dredd drugs. The RCs we have aren't anything that special and all the PCP and bath salt poo poo you hear about is just the media being hype on the drug war.

I would argue that segments of the population self marginalizing themselves via virtual waifus is way more dark and depressing than anything in those 80s books.

When people were saying hoverboard I thought they were talking about the thing from the lexus commercial:

http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2015/06/24/lexus-hoverboard/29220305/

Turns out I was half right about how it worked (liquid nitrogen)

That makes me sad that those pieces of garbage have that name, I have seen several dorks riding them in the wild.
