this probably belongs in cerebal approach but nobody goes in there so fuck it, anyways someone i was talking too thats been around for awhile brought up a REALLY good point yesterday. according to her opinion, we got so caught up with technology in the past 2 decades that we forgot whats important. we're more busy paying attention to our ipods, computers, cell phones, the next new thing that we forgot everything else.

makes sense though. we got problems with war in iraq, the increasing crime rate, and everything else going on in the world and unlike what the people of the 60s and 70s (hippies, revolutionaries, etc.), we're more focused on technology that we aint set on resolving problems of today. 60s and 70s kinda established their own mark in history with all the diffrent styles and shit and now the past 20 years have been completly boring. no style no nothing.

i dont know i just thought that was a pretty good point. of course theres gonna be people who disagree.

yea blame ipods for the lack of care regarding the war in Iraq. That's real intelligent

^^^ipods was an example. and its an opinion not fact. so theres no point in arguing

true, no no it's ok you're right there I aggree it makes sense ya you're right don't worry, you have a point there it's true

plus, i think technology DOES deserve a lil blame. i mean look how lazy we got cuz of all the things technology does for us. not saying im against any of it but it does have an effect.

Your kidding me right? if anything the 60's and 70's started more problems than they solved. Civial Rights and Equal Admentmends was prob. the best thing that came from that era of time. You do realize that back than, protesting was a way of rebillion....kids now a days just do things a little differently. I highly doubt that its because of the technolgoy that anything has changed. What about Nixion? See a clear connection with how he was treated and how Clinton was treated? What about Johnson and the Vietname war? He wanted to go in to 'Nam....so did Bush with Iraq, yet America didn't do shit other than keep nodding their heads until enough people (young and old) did something togeather about. That person you semed to talk to is only viewing that young people are less pro-active publicly than they were before. So you view is completely: lame.

yes but overall it's been more positive to society. Besides the lust for technology is endless you can't stop the humans thirst for innovation and more knowledge to advance our race because it's been built into our genetic code.

Technology is what advances the world. War in Iraq? We technologized bombs so we can win...and will eventually (go america)
Crime rate? Look at Robocop - he was made from technology, and nobody ever got away from him.
Don't you hate cashiers at the grocery store? Even when I was one, I still hated them...now, thanks to technology, they're being replaced by robots. (i.e. "self check-out lane")

So technology's awesome. And although I'm a little weary about putting robots in control, I still take the bus all over town.

LMFAO ROBOCOP........ you're fucked bro haha

oh yea you're right it's true it wasnt ur point yaya it's true no you're right you got me no no it's true there you're right

so true but at the same time thats an example of losing your job to technology. they could probably replace our troops in iraq with robots too but obviously bush finds it more intersting to send people family members off to never come back

The first real life computer ever created was by a German engineer.

it was used in the concentration camps during world war two to count and keep track of the people inside each camp. 1929 was the date I quote from a book that I got it from. While the internet states it was in the year "1943".

But fuck the net.
