How is this not already a thing by now? Seems simple enough to implement. And prob wouldn't cost that much more.

Go watch Black Mirror episode “The Entire History of You” to see how that turns out.

I would rather a tech rewind and see a collapse of satellite and cell phone networks.

Are you serious? I'm not sure I've ever seen one without it.

What the hell is going on here?

So, maybe I misinterpreted the word 'generic', but after looking at that again I am guessing he meant the store generic. I thought he meant like generic as in the ones everyone eats, like Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Reese's Puffs.

The greatest un-intended consequence of this if it ever happens is that everyone that currently or previously owned a pet in history would be vilified as a “slave owner” or sorts. Take them all off tv, cancel their movies, banned from sports leagues and fired from their jobs!

Inventions you hope to be alive to experienece

I got a book written by, who's that famous Asian scientist? Forget his name. It's the guy we see on TV shows talking about science and Sci fi stuff.

He wrote a book analyzing Star Wars and Star Trek tech, and put things into:
next hundred years
next thousand years
many millennia down the way

It was fascinating what fell into the "within a century" block; as I remember, lightsabres easily (plasma torches, basically, with small enough energy sources).

Very surprisingly, teleporters/transporters were on the edge of that- apparently we're ALREADY playing around with that, and able to do static molecular strings. I know it's a HUGE leap to teleport living, organic material (animals and people), but I think they already have a handle on it theoretically. I would have put that tech WAY down the road.

And I really don't think I'd have the nerve to be "energized"

Here is one that might be realized in my lifetime (I’m 70) but I’d like to see some incredible VR goggles that are wireless, weigh next to nothing and make me wonder which world I’m in.

Wasn't that in the original Alien novelization? I seem to remember that; when the crew was in cryosleep it briefly touched on their dreams. And it kinda mentioned that some people were "professional" dreamers, who made entertainment for the masses (instead of making movies like today). I think the book said Ripley was close to that level.
