"Predicting that the United States would someday have an African-American president? Not that impressive. Predicting that the United States would have an African-American president a full 40 years before it happens, and picking his name as “President Obomi?” Well, now you’ve got our attention. Stand on Zanzibar, an award-winning 1968 science-fiction novel set in 2010, was just two letters off the real future president’s unique last name. We can’t even begin to explain that.
It turns out, Stand on Zanibar’s author, John Brunner, also predicted DVRs, satellite news, terror threats, and legal marijuana. But we still can’t get over “President Obomi.”"

there
tbh, most of this article goes to show how much we *haven't* really advanced since the 19th century. It's mostly just updates to older technologies
We had photocopiers during the Civil War
Look at this bullshit article linked at the bottom
yang lives in our society
He's an anti-white chink spy
man why you gotta idpol everything maaaan
`tbh, most of this article goes to show how much we haven't really advanced since the 19th century. `
since the early 20th century there's been basically no real innovation
by this metric
but nuclear shit, flying, rocketry were pretty cool
it also shows that rich people had a lot of time to be creative sitting on their asses
someone was bound to be right
about something
@Fitzydog yeah I read that the industrial revolution was the only real moment of serious advancement
after 1945, things slowed down again, now it's all just improvements on existing tech
and entire ages are now defined by individual inventions like the computer and atomic bomb
silicon chips
