1) Holographic cellphones that can project 3D images be it the caller's image or just naughty pictures you have taken with the built-in 70 mega-pixel camera . 2) Extinct animals being brought back to life. (not dead people though, human rights activist would not agree to it) . 3) Surfing speeds so fast that you can download entires movies faster than you can say "I" . 4) cars that parks itself. 5) Fridges that comes up with a recipe for you with what you have inside it .
Last but not least- My grandchildren laughing at me playing PS8 while their grubby little hands are mashing buttons on their shiny PSxxv(25) .
Actually, Nostradamus doesn't talk about much of anything but exceptionally vague mumblings. In practice, he never really predicted anything, except that there would eventually be a peace to end a particular war ongoing in his lifetime (this ranks as a trivial prophecy, like predicting that the Sun will come up tomorrow). His fans have a way of editing context into Nostradamus' writing after the fact. Besides, you simpletons have already had your run at a Nostradamus doomsday. Remember July 1999? How did it go? L'an mil neuf cens nonante neuf sept mois Du ciel viendra un grand Roy deffraieur Resusciter le grand Roy d'Angolmois Avant apres Mars regner par bon heur. The year 1999, seven months, From the sky will come a great King of Terror: To bring back to life the great King of the Mongols, Before and after Mars to reign by good luck. (Quatrain X.72) This mumbly incoherent excrement was broadly interpreted by the proponents of credulity and superstition as being a prediction of nuclear war. Oh. You know solar flares happen ALL THE TIME right?
A device that allows you to chose what you want to dream about.
Robots, building homes. You buy a empty lot, you chose online from a variety of different blue prints, you select one and the robots get to work right away, of course you still have to pay for the materials.
A.I.s become so sophisticated people have to go to therapy because, they've fallen in love with an android, perhaps they've forgone a social life of any kind with real humans.
You lose a limb you can have it regrown.
A chip implanted in your brain lets you access the internet whenever, and you can type messages on Y/A, on thought.
That technology will free us from work and give us more leisure time. What a croc! These money grubbers are making us work longer hours now for even less money. This is with a whole gamut of labour saving technology around us.
