the thing that gets me is that we essentially have solved the technological requirements to build a post-scarcity society, but capitalism is incapable of organizing towards that at all. the inefficiency of the overproduction is the point. probably the next big real innovation i would expect to see would be feasible room-temperature superconductors. from what i've seen, that's pretty much a matter of time.
i also would like to build neat things with other nerds :deeper-sadness:
