  • My interpretation of impact includes both positive and negative sentiments.

    Whereas you are saying that a negative thing doesn't count as impact.

  • Yes.

  • Not that I don't disagree with you, but how did you come down to this conclusion?

  • Instead we should be working towards getting people to reduce their energy usage.

    But in you scenario, why?

  • "We produce so much energy that we can use it in any way we want."

    I don't see the problem with that.

  • What about huge underground reservoirs?

  • Hot thing loses heat, re-heat it with the excess energy!

  • So, dig deeper with machines powered with the excess energy. I don't see the issue...

    (I'm half-joking.)

  • Hear me out: Automatic paella making machines.

  • Yup, I hated that "Too much of a good thing durr hurr" phrase in this context.

  • Are you making that up?

  • You are making a red-herring argument.

    The post's question is: "What technology made the most impact in modern times?"

    A poster says "Chemical fertilizers" and detailed the reasons.

    And then you come in and say "NU-UH, IT DESTROYS THE PLANET!!!" an argument that has nothing to do with the question.

  • You can see this in the U.S. as well.

    In many parts of the world, though, I wouldn't say cars per se, but definitely public transportation. A lot of people can't afford cars in the world, and they still benefit from the invention of the internal combustion engine.

  • its* polarization (or polarisation, in your part of the world.)

  • What a wild question.

  • And your home feed would be a direct and unfiltered view of what all your friends posted

    And it was a feature added later when they wanted to compete with Twitter. Prior to that, no home feed. Just profile pages, a la MySpace. And it was glorious! It was so much fun to leave wall messages to friends, and see whatever others have posted in them too.

    When the newsfeed came about, I remember thinking "I don't like it. It's stupid!" mainly because I knew it was a reaction to Twitter. Of course, I got used to it eventually.

    But yup. Facebook back then was a neat tool. Not the cesspool that's been for the past 10 years.

  • Oh. Hehe.

    Sorry.

    It's hard to read people's intentions with just text sometimes.

  • The message is heavily distorted by bow.

    I see what you did there.

    Hey everyone, the message heavily distorted my bow!

  • What the fuck are you on? This is not an Airbus engineering war room.

    The title of the post is "What's an idea you have that should be an actual thing?" not "What's an idea you have that should be an actual thing and it must realistically be made possible"?

    Lighten up.
