Not saying we'd be better on the gold standard, but fiat currency is literally worthless meaningless paper that has no tangible value.

I wish we could go back to barter n trade, to before currency was invented tbh.

The outer worlds was so mid I forgot it existed until I saw this video- and I beat the entire thing and all its side quests.

Yeah, that checks out.

Most countries in the world's entire electrical grid wouldn't be able to handle a full ev-ification of the nation's cars as is- let alone replacing every single one of those cars with chargers that suck enough energy to charge 3~ of the normal modern ev's range (250mi~) in 10 minutes (2x faster than the fastest modern evs) at once.

It would be taking a problem we already don't have infrastructure to solve yet- and tripling it.

So what happened in the 1970s?

I dont support Pcgamer, so I wont be looking but I'd like to add Vermintide 2 if it's not on the list.

Terraria is also likewise 10x better with friends.

Well, considering how fast AI is progressing, I'd be surprised if humans aren't obsolete in the coming decades- Literally just a few days ago we just achieved an absolutely mind boggling leap in ai capabilities- Most current Ai models use a method of attention & processing that problem solves questions by a 'token' system which represents how much data they can consume at once before forgetting it.

These tokens for most ai's are in the thousands, with some of our best like GPT3-4 using about 8,000~32,000 tokens. Well a brand new method of token attention splitting just was debuted that changed this token limit from a few thousand, to 1 Billion tokens... Which would give an ai almost an unlimited amount of processing power to comprehend tasks.

Basically, Ai, once AGI and subsequently (and most likely very quickly afterwards) sentient ai is created- such a being would have the ability to solve every single question & problem humanity has ever been able to think of- and more, eventually ai will reach a near godlike intellect ability in which they'd essentially make every human on the planet obsolete in terms of intellect anyways...

Who knows how that'll turn out though, It'll all depend on if the Ai decides to be benevolent or not, and if they arent we are basically working towards our near guaranteed extinction.

Well, hopefully we live to see all our wildest dreams come true and not our nightmares.

Yeah, its mind boggling how quickly technology is progressing, to think we lived for hundreds of thousands of years as hunter-gatherer cavemen and then ~ten thousand as early civilizations to the absolutely insane pace technology has progressed in the last 100~200 years is just crazy to think about.

We went from no electricity, medicine, engines, etc. to nuclear power plants, gene editing & vaccines, jet engine vehicles capable of breaking the sound barrier, and computers that are getting scarily close to replicating human behavior in just 1/100000th the time we spent running around the planet hunting animals in tribes...

It's quite incredible when you think about it.
