Are you satisfied with mankind's technological advancements in the last few decades?
Way back in 1999? I've been waiting for Maglev / Monorail since the mid 80s. And they've been around since the 1960s or earlier anyways.
Where I am, I'd just be happy with any kind of train really murrica' ;_;
Edit: come to think of it, I've been waiting for VR since the mid 80s too. Since that seems to finally be happening, maybe monorails are coming too? :D

Hmm could be. I'm still waiting for a PC VR headset which would cost under 500$, though.

Sadly maglev monorails haven't taken off. But there is one at Disney World (rode it in the 80s), and at the Seattle Space Needle (haven't ridden it yet, but it was installed for the 1962 World's Fair).
And a VR headset for maybe $200ish would be great, yeah

I've been hearing for more that 20 years that the future is near, technology is making giant steps forward and blah blah, but the only thing in everyday life that I have seen advancing are computers/graphics/videogames, and they do not advance very quickly to be honest. All those intelligent robots/machines/whatsoever still remain prototypes or exclusive to Nasa and the like, so it's not really a benefit for the population.
Congratulations on reaching level 8, Mr. Bud Spencer, have a bump.
May I ask why I'm on your BL? D:

Thanks! As for BL, I think you were rude in a forum thread. But that was a while ago and everyone deserves a second chance so you can hop on the train now if you want. :)

I remember playing with MAGLEVS in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri way back in 1999. 18 years later and we've got...fidget spinners. Man, the future sucks. Yes, I know that Japan, China and S. Korea have maglevs, but that might as well be on another planet considering where I live.
OK, if you really must know, the reason for the train is that I've reached level 8. I stopped actively pursuing levels upon hitting 7, but eleven months later and here we are. Also, 500 games on Steam so yay, I guess.
