The moon landing gave us some real advances in technology.
Quantum computing only gave us headlines for clickbait. It been touted for years, yet still doesn't exist.

Do you believe quantum computing will never exist
As for the moon mission I believe manned space flight is stupid as I see it as merely as stunt For one thing it is harmful to the astronauts For another any technology derived from it I assume would be invented to solve other problems as needs be I favor robotic exploration My fantasy is a space station manned by tele-operated robots performing high value zero-g manufacturing The only benefit of manned exploration by NASA as far as I am concerned is its' demonstration to the Chinese of their inferiority to the USA as I dislike their uppity attitude I hope you are not a Chinese national as if Mr. Xi would permit access to this site - Cheerio

It's another solution looking for a problem. We know they're making technical advances but they haven't done any significant problem solving. That's why you can get free access to quantum computers.

We didn't get our Jetsons cars, but we did get the cyberpunk dystopia we were promised.

I would have much rather had the Jetson cars over the present dystopia!

I feel like, at least I'm well positioned for it some ways?
I just don't want to become part of the problem. (And here I'm being serious). No more worker monitoring and "productivity" apps for me because of how they are abused. No weapons software or hardware. No work for the military since their primary function revolves around weapons so even support is still to that end. And I'm very careful about government anything - primarily limiting myself to energy projects and such if I had to pin it down right now. It limits my employment prospects, but everyone has their lines, and their reasons. I don't judge others for the most part for not having the same lines I do - I think there's a lot of room for people to decide what they're willing to take part in without me having to weigh in on it. Some people don't eat meat. You know?
All of that is because for me, those things contribute to our encroaching dystopia given I believe that we are being forced to adapt as a species to technology, rather than the other way around as often as not, if not more often. It's biting us in the backside collectively often enough that we're clearly not ready for it even as we must be. I don't want to accelerate the problem.
I'd rather harness what we have, and learn how to use it more effectively. Sometimes I think our (dis)information age is killing us.
Tech is a double edged sword. I'm not afraid of it, but then I'm not afraid of guns by themselves either. It's more about who is wielding them and how much I trust them.
But that's me being serious. I'm not trying to change anyone's mind, because I haven't put in the work to make a clear moral argument for my position. I just go with what I can live with at the end of the day, where the above is concerned.

Edit: lots of edits. i need more coffee. it's one of those days.

If it makes you feel any better, I do know some Trumpers who bought into quite a lot of the bullshit who are now starting to delve deeper, and see that they were sold a bag of crap. Specifically, they went to Mike Lindel's site and actually looked at the attachments for the Supreme Court filing he promised, which no Attorney General signed onto. When they read it they saw that everything is based on possibilities, not evidence of actual wrongdoing. The attachments don't even support many of the assertions in the filing! It is a complete waste of paper, as far as actual proof is concerned, but I guess it helped sell some pillows.
Hopefully, that change in those I know helps show that we might make it out of this morass intact. Hopefully...

Yes he was. The Echo 1 communications satellite was described in a 1949 Clarke short story.
As for that image, it looks more like a Borg Cube than a monolith.

We tend to think of space exploration as involving high speeds. Seems this rover can do 80metres in 3 months. Almost a metre per day. We have plants[^] that can grow that fast! 0.00002mph.

Yes it can. No, it's not encrypted, it is recognized as executable code.

"Download". In a VM. Open with Notepad++.
That is, if you like to play a game. Shall we play a game, David?

I'm not going near random files: but assuming it's an encrypted file ... of course you can.
All you are going to need is the password. Ask the file owner, I'm sure he'll give you everything you need. Unless, of course you aren't supposed to do that ...
