Btw have any of you guyls tried that mirror that reads mineral levels via the eye or whatever that is?

It's pretty nuts. My sister tried it somewhere and it showed some deficiancy in something .. like not that drastic but it helped when she told her doctor who would have had to test that deficiancy individually.

Soon a phone could do that.

right now google, FB etc will advertise based on what you google.

So they can roughly track what you might be interested in in a broad, superficial way. Like, you like photek so you might like this drum and bass mix CD from 98. You been looking at porn, so you might want to date Russian women in your area.

Soon, as people submerge themselves further into the cyber world, and their technology improves, they'll be able to basically psychoanalyse you really accurately. Enough to point you towards goods, services, events, nights out, people, etc that will affect you in a very deep and specific way that they can predict/control. Maybe you've been listening to dark, music a lot and behaving nihilistically so there'll be an ad for something that's life affirming and suggests there's meaning to life etc, that YOU specifically are likely to believe in.

Of course given that they aren't some angels who want your best first and foremost, this will all be for purposes of keeping you hooked on and satisfied just enough, just as with any marketing today, just hooked into you way deeper

imo

I'm a fool for ads, at least I think so.. If the product is right and they hit the right spot

but on the other hand I understand the problems of consumerism and capitalism. it's weird really. I wanna "live dat life" like clothing-wise and running shoe-wise but on the other hand I wanna be good for the planet. Luckily I heard a headline that buying new clothes has actually very little impact on the environment when compared to consuming meat products. at least I got that in check

Toddlers are loving ipads now. They use ipads before they can speak.

Obviously Toddlers aren't signing up for facebook and google accounts, but given a few years you could probably come up with some way to reach out to specific small kids through their cut the rope game.

Maybe given some time, facebook or whatever has followed you since you were 8 and seen your interests, where you go etc, develop into adulthood. When they have the right programs for automatically analysing this data well enough, and there'll just be more and more of this data of course, they could probably do all sorts of shit.

In that film that came out recently, Ex Machina, there was a brief bit where this sort of thing came into play, and it was really cool

Amazing that people are still sitting around jerking off over outdated "dystopian" visions where society is basically like the 80s, just more automatic doors that go "pshh" when they open + more red lights on the machine guns. Theres sooo much eerie sci fi shit about right in front of everyones faces. Also, why do all those futuristic films/games have basic 90s styles with breaks and 303s as their "futuristic music". Surely youtube hood videos and street rap music made with FL and trap sample packs is the real cyberpunk shit.

tbf no matter what time and point in history it is people will always be worried about where the world is going and feeling insecure about new stuff

nietzsche said "only sick music makes money today" or something back in like the 19th century. what on earth could that possibly mean? when the train was developed some ppl were sure such fast travel would damage the brain. when the radio was invented they thought people wouldn't go to a concert any more. they thought telly would kill cinemas and the same goes with VCR. unabomber wrote his manifesto in the 70's about how at the time they lived in a climate of mindless, empty entertainment and technology worshipping.
basically I guess I'm saying that we'll get used to it all. It's a weird world and will only get weirder. but it's not all bad greener technology is being invented there's no issue with the ozone layer etc.. I know I'm thinking it can't be right that toddlers are using basically computers be4 dey walk but that's the status quo who knows maybe they'll become really smart or something. but I hope they don't stop making books and shit because of that
