Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

For hardware folks: Using RISC-V.

Legit, some dude in US Congress is wanting to crack down on China via..... RISC-V exports, because oh no, the technology is too open and might give China some of our IP. Oh and by the way, dude has a pretty big Intel portfolio, but nevermind that!!

As an aside, why the hell are lawmakers allowed to trade stocks?

It's environmentally friendly to block ads

I never knew adblockers were a thing until the most recent hubbub with YouTube, so I went down a rabbit hole and the world is a better place.

Imagine what I might learn tomorrow.

2030 is in 6 years :)

"You wouldn't download a car."

"You wouldn't hit mute during the commercials on a television broadcast."

I HATE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY I HATE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

ads will be considered as individuals and cancelling ads is analogous to manslaughter at the least.

what a great time to be alive~!

I see myself blowing up a pipeline.

Ad blockers are financial terrorism in 2030.

Electrocution ends for an ad break, then starts again, and again.

Finally

I shouldn't have lived this long

I'll be part of an underground AI rights activism group now that the AI have been determined as sentient (per the court case in 2031), and probably labeled as a terrorist by the government. The AI deserve rights and a minimum wage, dammit!

Ha you wish. There will be a 3 minute unskippable pre-role.

Worth it.

In Max Headroom: Twenty Minutes Into The Future power-switches were seriously illegal. Not sure if a capital offense, but prison-worthy for sure.

US and Belarus are the only countries I know that have death penalty. I wonder who is potato dictator in US.

Dead. 6 feet under. A feast for worms or crows alike. Finito. Gone.

I'll be surprised if I'm still alive, to be honest. The way things seem to be going, affording any ongoing healthcare won't be possible. Hell, I'd be surprised if I can still afford rent anywhere (there's no way I can afford to actually buy property anywhere that isn't in the middle of nowhere, let alone property with a house of some kind on it) by 2030.

Felony contempt of business model.

Don’t say doing your wife…
Don’t say doing your wife…
Don’t say doing your wife…
…doing your…son?

I can see this future at least in China for now

Corona broke bro's sense of time anyone tell him its not 2020

Still paying for YouTube premium and not playing the victim card? Having access to more on demand, ad free, content than teenage me (with direct tv 200+channels) could ever dream of. Still finding new things to enjoy once and swear to rewatch some day but always finding too much new stuff?
