Will we ever be able to smell/feel/taste the internet?

As humans begin to adjust to our decaying planet and we all eventually become cyborgs, will the internet provide an outlet to experience sensations of life in a virtual setting? Will you be able to escape to the digital world for hours, days, weeks on end with an endless amount of totally realistic experiences?

This sounds like something out of Brave New World, or the movie Inception - borderline Matrix. I don't think were that far away from it. I have this vision for the future where when a child is born, a chip is implanted in the brain that accesses the internet, which every human being is plugged into through their chip. We can all communicate without speaking, instantaneously, and access all the information in the world. We all live in a virtual society in our minds.

Seem possible? Scary? Is it really that farfetched?

When they have real virtual sex (you know, like the holodeck on Star Trek), all other forms of communication will cease to exist... well, for men anyway.

If they ever came up with holodeck technology, everyone will not have a need to live in the "real world". They could just program up their fantasy world and never leave. Men would just sit their virtual pron star world and women would live in a virtual world filled with the ultimate kitchen appliances, irons, vacuums, etc.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
