So I just got one of the quantum temporal computer they have been advertising. Of course you wouldn't have seen those adds would you. I'll have to remember I have this set for 25 years in the past.
It's 2034 here. I'm sure there are lots of questions about the future popping up. I probably won't answer many of them today. Instead I'm going to focus on the temporal paradox issues that people seemed to assume would exist in this sort of thing as i recall.
What you have to understands is that we're using quantum physics to create micro wormholes. The upshot of that is that I am connecting to the past of a quantum reality that is identical to mine, but not mine. This means that nothing I do will effect me because it happened in a different reality.
The big news here recently is that NASA finally put another man on the moon. Of course they did it by buying a ticket on one of the commercial flights. Cost them 87,000 and some extra for the luggage but they wanted to do some experiments. The Spaceliner even turned off the spin for part of the trip so they could test microgravity.
Other than that it's just the world. Most of the things that everyone expected happened, but you know what they say, the future is never as good as you had hoped and never as bad as you expected. Global warming buried a few cities but mostly people just moved. Computers haven't taken over the government, but they have taken over most of the media. They do a better job anyway. The only really bad effect was that a lot of the former executives from Hollywood ran for political office. They mostly lost.
Now that the date on the quantum temporal computer is set the dates should remain linked. Time will pass roughly the same speed for each of us. I'll try to put up a note most Saturdays if possible.
If you have any questions leave a comment i'll try to address it.
