Imagine what the 9th grader in you, circa 1983, would have thought seeing someone efficiently operating an iPad. Swipe, touch, pinch, pull. Lightyears beyond anything we’d seen on Star Wars. Pure science fiction. Then talking to it, if you liked. Asking it questions? Having it answer you.
Oh. That was probably but everyone thought it would be like. Still no flying cars or decent sex robots.
Just the same level of hate, cruelty, and shit, though.
