Nothing new will be invented.

Computers won't get faster or better. They've been stuck for 10 years at the same resolution screens and same processing ability.

The same shit technology is being recycled and sold back to you as new over and over again.

it's the jews, man. just don't spend fucking money in the same old shit and the market must innovate to be relevant

Huh? I don't remember having a mobile device with 2 gigs of ram 10 years ago.

>>45388864
Yeah and for how long we've been stuck with 1080p now? Why is it that the 1440p/4k are being pushed just now and that they're extremely overpriced?
>>
>>45388858

10 years ago you didn't need 2gigs of ram because the OS running smartphones was lean and smart.
>>
>>45388828
Oh no!! We are not going to live in spaceships with virtual robot females? Ohh nooo! We won't upload ourselves to a simulated universe?? Oh noo!!!

Who would have said it was just a fantasy!
>>
>>45388896
10 years ago you could not play a decent game on your phone or use facebook.com that well.
>>
So we had 16 gigs of ram 10 years ago? We were also able to store terabytes of data?
>>
>>45388828
Yes, you're right.
Now go back reading your bible.
>>
>>45354735

2 gigs of ram in a phone was unthinkable 10 years ago.

OPs a moron
>>
>>45388907
Yes.
>>
>>45388907
Servers have been doing this since the 90s. It's just become affordable enough to have at home.
>>
>>45388895
Very little of TV is even 1080 yet. We only recently got rid of SD for the most part.

Color broadcast was introduced in the 50s and not standard until the 70s. We're doing pretty damn well that since the 90s we've gone through three standards and Analog to Digital swap. We're due for an upgrade and it's coming but it's progressing plenty fast.

Damn nigga.

WAT IS MOORE'S LAW. DERP.

Quantum computing is coming. Slowly. Steadily.
VR headsets are coming. Faster than you think.
Higher resolutions are coming. Apple is pushing 5K.
Yet one thing stays the same. OP. All these years and you're still a faggot.
>>
>>45388828
What's that comic with the ghost that talks about this? Talking about how after the singularity being rich and white will be even more awesome? It's the same shit man. Unless you're rich your consumer tech will stay very similar for a long time. It's just a fact of life.

10 years ago we had better social networks you could use on your phone and more privacy and touch screens and keyboards and offline navigation etc. etc..

Is this a new meme?

Guess it would help if most of you were actually old enough to remember 10 years ago.
>>
>>45388960
But we did have computers with 16GB of RAM and 1TB+ of data space.
No one talked about consumer, don't move the goalposts.

Educate yourself.
>>
>>45389022
It's you who is adjusting goalposts, shifty faggot. This whole thread was about consumer computing.

this is such a stupid thread

What does Moores law have to do with OP's implications?

No "consumer" anything in that whole text. Educate yourself.
>>
>>45389022

What is available to consumers now is proof this thread is stupid.

>neckbeard using sports reference
>>
>>45389035
show me any phone from 10 years ago with the same resolution as a new smartphone today
>>
>>45389042
It proves him wrong. Moores law is alive and well, that in of itself proves op wrong.
>>
>>45388972
Looking forward to quantum computing. It wont be too long now.
>>
>>45389022
Cool - now the government has computers that store over 3,000,000 - 12,000,000 TB.

Surely that's a big enough difference for you?
>>
>>45388992
ah,

>no..alots of missing features

compare today smartphones with yesterday junk like symbian

But new things are constantly being invented.

>Computers won't get faster or better.
Except they are.

>They've been stuck for 10 years at the same resolution screens and same processing ability.
Kek. Consumer computing isn't a good benchmark for technological advancement you retard. Even then your statement is incorrect because over the past 2 years more and more high PPI laptops and monitors have been released, not to mention you're objectively wrong about processing power remaining the same.

>The same shit technology is being recycled and sold back to you as new over and over again.

Yes, among a myriad of other stuff.

The hardware is there.
all we need is the software to take advantages of it.

With enough cave walls to write on, cavemen were able to store petabytes of data.

Therefore, technology has never advanced in the entire history of mankind.

It'll be longer than you think. Intel claims they have a clear way to 7nm CMOS.

They'll probably switch to Silicon-Germanium wring it all the way down to 3nm, then just make stacked chips after that.

Everything went to shit when amerilards stopped giving fucks about space. I have high hopes in russians and chinks.

what does space have to do with it? a clock radio has more processing power than the vacuum tubes that sent people to the moon.
