I think we are witnessing right now on these very forums the creation of an advanced technology that detects and closes bad threads without comment. That's pretty cool. This thread could be next.

ANIME IS BLOOD posted:I'm not saying that the automation is bad, but I think we're rapidly approaching a threshold where it's overwhelmingly replaced labor but have yet to furnish a way for former labor to exist in a meaningful or sustainable way and it's going to bite us all in the rear end When I was a teenager automation was seen as a wonderful thing which would allow everyone to work 15 hour weeks for great money and have massive amounts of leisure time. That savings from increased efficiency would go to shareholders and not workers wasn't really foreseen. People were excited about machines doing high risk/soul destroying work freeing up human labour for safer, more "rewarding" jobs. Lolie fucked around with this message at 23:30 on Feb 19, 2016 |

yeah maybe that's all tech has done for you because you pay 0 attention to poo poo all meanwhile we can use our brainwaves to control robotic limbs like it's motherfucking deus ex while other doctors/scientists have figured out how to use sound waves to gently manipulate objects so they can do very basic surgery without opening you up but yeah you're right we're just making smaller iphones

Like a forums plugin that automatically accepts tenbux from Jon Pop and Gagelion reregs and then says, "thanks for the cash, oh BTW banned" and then we don't even have to see one worthless post per account.

Chances are if a machine can do your job it was probably lovely anyways if we're being fair. Sure living on welfare/ unemployment in a lovely neighborhood sucks, but nothing compared to eking out a living beating the land with hand tools.

Sex bots will have synthetic organs and service the needs of their respective populations. Automated ships will deliver eggs and sperm, but no human traffic. Earth is an abandoned hell hole.

To answer your question op, it's because Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka already invented the Somethingawful.com comedy forums. Also, gently caress you and the lovely thread you rode in on, op.
