What would you most like to “dis-invent”?
Video games! But if you think anti-vaxxers are vocal, go ahead and try to outlaw video games cold-turkey. We’d have to find a way to dis-invent them slowly. And, obviously, I’m an ideas man, so here’s the game plan. (I’ve done exactly zero research on this, so it may already be a thing.) Years ago, I heard about a computer game that you can only play one time. Once your avatar dies in the game, that device is permanently locked-out from further play. Talk about reality! That, too, may initially be a little dramatic. I, thus, propose a mandate that video games begin on the final level. If you die before finishing the game, your next round starts on the penultimate level. Die again—start on the antepenultimate level. Every life lost makes your venture to completion one level longer. I suggest no fewer than 1,000 levels, with some levels consisting of nothing more than a simulated 2-hour drive along a nondescript desert road. Eventually, gamers would get tired of their countless hours of boredom. With fewer people purchasing video games, it becomes fiscally impossible for companies to produce new ones. Mission accomplished!
Almost everything that’s here is here to stay. You can’t get rid of anything in its entirety
Everything, that I can think of, that’s be invented has a good purpose. Most people my age would say computers, but I find them fascinating. Are love my IPhone, iPad and all my computers in my house. I love researching for recipes and decorating ideas.
As far as those video games go, I have not tried them. I do play word games and my favorite, sudoku on my iPad. My grandchildren just love them and do spend too much time on them. Jessica is in the school of Engineering at Kent State studying exactly that. So I guess it opens up job opportunities. She was always into them. When she was little she told me one day she couldn’t understand war and people dying. She felt make it a video game and fight that way.
That thought may be for another day Brad
Video games are amazingly popular, but I never really got into them. Probably far too complex for me these days.
You do have an interesting mind. I think video games is a good answer. I think about all the nifty inventions over the years and I struggle with wanting to dis-invent any of them. Just thing how many phone booths there would be if we didn’t have cell phones. How ugly every corner would be with a phone booth on every corner. Or how would obese people get inside a phone booth to make a call. Or midgets, how would they reach the numbers. But it would be nice to actual talk to people face to face and not have their face buried in a iPhone. Maybe dis-invent Facebook cause everyone gets angry at a post that they don’t agree with. But wait, I wouldn’t see your post and questions. So, I can’t think of anything I would dis-invent.
It’d be a butterfly effect if you did dis-invent something, anyhow. No telling how it’d change our present and future.
