Same as it does now, just with slightly less effective money.

And you’re right. 2032 is the last year that Win 10 gets updates.

The year that most people start using Linux is the year that it will find some way to sell out. *I know that it’s not a monolothic thing, GPL, etc. but people ruin everything… enshittification, uh, finds a way

Not much different. Foldable phones will be widespread, American cars will be bigger, shaving machines will have more blades, natural disasters will be more common. We will go through one or two more cycles of drought/forest fires and heavy rains/floodings. We will see one or two mass migrations from India, Pakistan and Africa resulting in first climate refuge camps on the borders of EU.

So you are telling me there still won’t be flying cars in 10 years? smh

Flying cars are a terrible idea. We can barely keep them rolling on the ground. Do you really want several tones of metal floating above your head?

Yes. Every single day, almost every person I see driving is looking at their cell phones or holding them at their mouth talking. I mean those odds should be astronomical, but it’s more common than not. Imagine adding another dimension of travel to that…

We have flying cars right now they’re called helicopters. You just don’t have one because they’re expensive.

Yeah, as the pinnacle of human achievement, we need to bring traffic congestion to the skies.

There will be exactly 4 flying cars in 10 years.

shaving machines will have more blades

I wish they’d just work out how many blades is the optimum number of blades, and then put that number of blades on. Why are we doing this iterative design approach.

It’s one. I’d been annoyed with razor burn, nicks & cuts, spots, etc. I switched to a simple double sided safety razor and I’m really enjoying it. As far as I’m concerned all this 8 blade turbo fusion slice and dice is all marketing.

My guess: Electric vehicles everywhere, protests, more linux users, and portless phones will be the norm

Edit: Oh yeah privacy is dead or at least much more harder to obtain

This is something that I feel like Brave New World got a lot more right. In that book, people’s pleasures are their prisons.

You can install Proton (the game compatibility layer) on desktop Linux now, can’t you?

The futuristic world of 2033 will be very different from our current primitive one. Humans will be seven foot tall with thumbs as long as fingers. Mars will have been fully terraformed, whilst there’ll be hundreds of vast floating cities on Venus. A Dyson swarm will encircle the solar system just beyond Neptune’s orbit. Humanity will communicate telepathically as one with AI. We still won’t understand cats.

With the amount of accidents and deaths drivers cause on the ground I’d rather flying cars not exist.

Yeah… If two cars collide in mid air, you’re going to see some burning steel raining on your roof and backyard. What a lovely thought.

That must mean that the cats will have transcended by then if such advanced humans could still not understand them. Welp, guess my only option is still blink slowly and pay them katzen the respect they expect
