As an aside, I was really surprised when I got a Google WiFi setup how good the chat function is. I didn't buy it for that purpose and didn't think I would use it but it's pretty neat.

I continue to be dumbfounded how Apple, MS, Amazon etc have basically ceded the smart home space to Google.

Apparently Gen Z redditors have discovered LSD and/or shrooms, judging by the quality of posts on here lately.

No, we aren't all about to be immortal. We aren't living in a micro version of the universe inside the cell of a dinosaur on Planet Z.

Christ I feel old.

This is what makes sci-fi so fun. Imagine aliens terraforming our atmosphere to create a nuclear winter that kills most native life! Or a bacteria evolves that destroys all metal (like wind turbines or solar panels), that would set energy technology WAY back. There are some fantasy type novels out there with a similar hidden backstory - some type of technological destruction followed by humanity evolving to have magic, sometimes with the help of alien life forms or exposure to something that changes the DNA
