snowkatt: so star trek tng then
Maighstir: Yup. And Star Trek have already predicted many future developments that became true.
I think Star Trek tech was more a reflection of common desires about what people wanted in the future than a new source of inspiration. There's a pretty consistent set of things people from the 50s on wanted in the future, and naturally the scientists who grew up in that era worked hard to make those dreams a reality.
That said, I'm still waiting for foldable tech. Forget whatever MS is trying to do with phone docks, a single piece of hardware that can be folded into different form factors for pocketability and large-screen gaming would be amazing.
Fairfox: R.I.P. early 2000s-era phonez. Perfect size! Nao they be either too small and like cheap toys, or are turning into silly, giant tablet-esque nonsense you put up to your face. I still has my Razr V3 <3. Teh heart is for
L-O-V-E.
Kleetus: I am a horrible being who trolls incessantly because I'm possibly less capable than the average dog and have no idea that better uses of my time exist.
FTFY
