Life is bad for a whole lot of things but without the bads you can't enjoy the goods. If getting wet and cold is bad wait until your partner dies in a car crash

Life is bad for a whole lot of things but without the bads you can't enjoy the goods. If getting wet and cold is bad wait until your partner dies in a car crash or when your kids die of cancer. People would willingly be uploaded to the matrix and living comfortably in a pod apparently... We're raising generations of people who aren't even developing basic human abilities like having more than 5 second of attention span, being physically fit or being able to see apparently, the drawbacks are starting to weight a lot imho

The barbarians are at the gate. I heard my whole life how my generation was going to be useless too. Ruined by arcades and violent tv shows. I am not saying there aren’t going to be drawbacks but “5 second attention span” sounds like the same ole same ole to me.

  The pace and scale is completely different though, it's accelerating and all encompassing Before it was "rock n roll is bad" for a full generation, now in a single generation you have multiple paradigm shifts, we don't even start to understand the impact of tech X that we're already deploying Y and Z
