  1. Food delivery was not rare before Door Dash. You just phoned up and ordered and the restaurants delivered. You paid cash to the driver. Sky high fuel prices will finish off Door Dash, Uber, and all the rest. Drivers won't be able to make any money.

  2. Well exactly, I don't see how this has fixed anything at all or see what this person did other than improve the ability to track shipments which wasn't the problem in the first place. This channel is just feeding peoples' delusions about 'progress'.

  4. They are using rubles and the ruble has become stronger than it was before the war.

  5. Most recycling is not viable. It takes more energy to do than it does to make new products.

  6.  @jimj2683  no, it takes far too much energy to do so lithium batteries are not recycled.

  7. I'd far rather see something in the original language with subtitles than this Frankenstein's monster of graphics, 'AI' and dubbing.

  8. The J20 is nothing like the F35. It's much bigger, differently shaped, has two engines and a different purpose.

  9. Nobody cares about NFT's any more. The bottom has dropped out of the market.

  10. If this made any sense it would have been happening decades ago. It doesn't make any sense obviously because of the enormous costs involved. That's all there is to it. The costs of launching anything to space are not 'exponentially decreasing'. That's just a lie based on fudging the figures.

  11. I'm just glad that the USA would never use large scale violence to achieve its aims.

  12. Fully automated translations with synced mouth movements and actual proper voice acting, all done by computer? Not realistically possible, this is vaporware.

  13.  @JohnCooganPlus  How can a computer understand a scene and voice act appropriately? It can't.

  14. It's a headset that doesn't do much. As far as I know you can't play VR games on it. You can use giant versions of apps floating in space above your coffee table which I imagine will get old fast.

  15. I never see any ads, i use 3 ad blockers simultaneously.

  16. It isn't being brought back. Just more nonsense CGI videos of things that will never happen.

  17. Of course they can't.

  19. 'The factory of the future' again? We heard this back in the 1980s. It didn't work.

  20.  @PrograError  how do you think electricity is generated? how do you think roads are constructed or repaired?

  21. Microsoft didnt produce Doom.

  22. It's all nonsense though. It doesn't exist except on youtube. In the real world there are going to be a lot less computers due to supply chain problems. Parts of the internet will begin shutting down due to lack of power. Things are going in an entirely different direction than videos like this would have you believe.

  23.  @AnnasVirtual  History does not show us anything about the future. As I said, this is all nonsense. AI does not exist and never will exist.

  24. We don't need a new currency and even if we did, blockchain is a terrible way to do it.

  25. Money goes a lot further in China and China can outproduce the USA and all its allies put together.

  26. He didn't build Paypal though.

  27. it's a fake money Ponzi scheme, that's all. Useless for any practical purpose.

  28. You need the high end chips made by TSMC for iphones, but not much else. You certainly don't need them for things like missiles and tanks. AI is just sci fi and doesn't matter in the real world.

  29. you can't just 'make fuel'.

  30.  @stefthorman8548  you're delusional. do you have any idea how many barrels of crude oil per day are used in the world? how do you plan to make diesel and jet fuel out of thin air? please go away and educate yourself.

  31.  @treestandsafety3996  As if that Flash Gordon contraption will ever be ready.

  32.  @treestandsafety3996  What are you talking about? I'm saying I doubt Starship will ever be ready. Get back to me in 2025 by which time it will have been abandoned after never launching to orbit.

  33.  @treestandsafety3996  I don't need to prove a negative. If you want to believe in Musk's fantasies, that's fine too.

  34.  @treestandsafety3996  Yes wonderful, wake me up when it actually happens.

  35.  @treestandsafety3996  Ive seen Musk's achievements such as the Hyperloop in Las Vegas.

  38.  @wouterdevlieger1002  irrelevant. it landed vertically.

  39.  @Jem_Apple I dont see any orbital manufacturing in 2023, nor has Starship reached orbit. Was there something I missed?

  40. VR has been around for years now and it's affordable. The fact is most people just arent interested.

  41. Electric cars do not curb carbon emissions. They also cause more damage to roads than conventional cars and produce more tyre dust pollution due to their weight. If they become more widespread, the end result will be much higher electricity prices and blackouts. We will all suffer whether or not we own one.
