I think lasers are pretty wack when you think about them through this lens. A small, wand-like object in your hand can make light appear from seemingly nowhere. If it’s powerful enough it can set things on fire or blind people. Not to mention larger ones like laser cutters or the LLD, used to destroy missiles midflight. Thats sure to blow some feudal peasant minds
TOS had them too. Also, 2001 A Space Odyssey also had something even more like a modern tablet. .
You know what I was thinking is weird about this the predicted tablet computers but somehow they didn’t predict emailing the files to your superior.
Sir I have finished my report, here, have my entire table computer, I’ll go get another. I can see you already have six others, but this one has my word document on it.
Although there are people where I work that actually think that’s how computers work.
