  1. Pretty str8 forward what do you guys think. I mean i love the internet an gc, but i feel like tech tears us apart in many ways...it promotes isolation and i think it causes a lot of bad shit...i mean like weapons for instance look at the killing power we posess you could destroy many earths with the technology we have today...idk i guess this is a pretty useless rant bc/ tech is not going to go away but idk it's like we humans have diverted from the path of righteousness if that makes sense im no theist really but like we have no fucking clue what we are doing and we are separated from our brothers you know like it has desensitized us a shitload...:mad: im no hippy mind you i just look at all the shit that goes on around me and cant help but be pretty ashamed of the present state of the human race wow brain overload abandon ship abandon ship lol i need a bowl to ease my mind cuz i cant even wrap my brain around all of this. but like anybody else want to contribute to this rant...
     
  2. I know exactly how you feel. It makes me sick to see how society as a whole is these days. It's hard to explain. When I watch the news it makes me sick. Technology has made things worse. But I guess it made some things better too. Everything was just given a kind of +1 and made a little easier. That includes the bad sh*t with the good ... Does that make any sense? Wow I'm high:smoking:
     
  3. yea it definitely does. Like computer games and shit and online rpgs. The kids that grow up playing these will probably not have RL friends unless they play the game with them so then they get used to only talking to people on the internet and when it comes to actually partying and being social these kids will not fit in and will just want to be left alone.

    Technology is definitely good that it makes things easier, but I think we take it for granted.

    I mean theres so much more to life than just electronics and games.
     
  4. technology is infinity evil, yet infinity good as well.... there are some technological advances that are great... others well.... you know how that goes, unfortunetly, we're not able to pick what kind of technology we create really, otherwise we could pick the good from the bad and get rid of the bad.... too late now! :wave:
     
  5. It's not so much the technology, as much as the people using it. People just don't know how to handle modern technology. They let it become an addiction, and they become slaves to it. If you think about it, there's not much difference between modern communication technology (computer's, tv, cellphones etc) and the drugs that even we know destroy people (heroine, meth, crack etc). People just don't use enough moderation with technology.

    On the other hand, technology such as cars and pretty much anything that uses gas....yea. That's pretty much fucking everything up.
     
  6. Well as Americans we have never been good at control, I mean look at our obesity epidemic. So technology is like obesity, it's so much easier to sit around behind a computer, than let's say go outside, but so much less rewarding.

    Everything is good in moderation, including moderation- Not Me :smoking:
     
  7. Humans should have never evolved.

    They broke the balanced equation that ruled the earth.
     
  8. Technology is just an abundance of trial- no way of avoiding it. Things have developed they way they have cause there was at some point demand.....


    Evil- no, it's the people who may have some of this technology within there gasps that are evil
