It's funny because it's exactly what's happening. It's part of the transhumanist conversion. I saw an article recently that discussed how our brains have become so reliant on the internet for information that they are storing less and less. Our computers and mobile devices are becoming hard drives in a way that we can access whenever necessary. There's really no longer a need to retain information.

As we become more receptive to technology and more reliant on machines, we tend to use our primary functions less. So imagine 20-30 years from now when our bodies, our humanity becomes irrelevant. Google Glass is a major step forward to transhumanism as the information will be accessible at all times, making our memory functions even less relevant. Soon, our eyes won't carry the functions our society requires them to so we'll probably end up throwing them away and just install some corporate electronic device.


It's a ****ing nightmare.

What the hell does this have to do with Obama other than trolling?

Spot on post sir. The art of communication, person to person, will be lost. Nobody will deal with anything in person. We got online "everything" anymore. It's all insanity. Humanity was a pretty good ride. It's all going down from here though.

The Obama bit was a joke as this is the politics section and it pertains to our inability to memorize/learn as readily available information is the current social trend.

I thought it was cute but clearly, and unsurprisingly, it went over a few peoples heads.

Do people who stutter, stutter when reading aloud?

Do they stutter more when they are lying?

In the future, or now, cross examined witnesses be whispered to by technical device rather than by their lawyer sitting next to them, on how to answer the question? (wireless 5th Amendment advice)
