I think I wouldn't go crazy if there were no computers...I can live without them and chat with my friends using telephone..So it wouldn't be a big loss for me...

QUOTE(Becca @ Feb 12 2005, 07:29 PM) I think this topic is a bit of crapness it should go in the spam area... But if people like it then I might just leave it. It's a bit of a crappy thing to ask I mean most the questions , as pointed out by most, are the same and logic totally rules most of the questions out. Anyways I see this as a topic that would boost your hosting credit up by loads so I dont know... anyone have suggestions?  u r absolutely right .. i have also think of that

Would you go crazy? I don't think so; I think it would spur me on to go out and actually socialize with people I live around...that's what people did for centuries before computers came along.
Would YOU not exist? No, I'd still be here...though how my dad would've made his living is anyone's guess, since he's a computer programmer. Would you be bored all day? Naw...I can still entertain myself with reading 1000s of books a year. Would you be bored at school all day? Nope...loved school, especially literature and science classes Would you be stuck playing board games and stuff all day? nope Would you end up working all day? nope, though I'd probably not be in the computing or forensic fields Would you be determined to invent computers? Naw, I'm too lazy for that kinda stuff Would you keep a computer secret in your closet and use it when no ones looking? nope Would you just be a all around idiot? nope Would you drink coffee all day? no, but I'd probably drink more than I do now. Would you sleep all day? nope...too much in life to do to sleep it all away. Would you kill yourself? no Would you be a cop? be involved in forensics maybe, but not be a cop, per se. Would you be a robber? no Would you be a mugger? no Would you be a regular person? probably Would you like to exist on this earth? yes Would you die of boredom? no Would you invent games? no Would you invent more games? no Would you think about inventing computers? no |

I think a better question would be, what if you were suddenly thrust into an alternate universe in which computers did not exist (on earth)? If computers did not exist here in this universe, we would not know about them, and therefore most of the questions are moot. However, if I was transported to such an alternate universe with all my present memories, I think I, and most of us, would get over it sooner or later. Either adapt to it or be condemned to an asylum, not just from going crazy, but telling people about a world in which such conveniences existed. Although, it would be possible, but unlikely, that you'd be hailed as a visionary genius in later generations. The people who really would commit suicide over losing all of our current technology are in the minority. Anyway, it would be interesting to see how such a world had turned out.
By the way, the 'would you think about inventing computers' is a fair question in such a scenario. Most of us would think about it, but extremely few of us have the knowledge to do so. Building computers nowadays isn't too hard, but in that universe, there would be no pre-made hardware at all. I don't think any of us knows how to make a motherboard, hard drive, anything... from scratch, not to mention the work in coding, in binary, with absolutely no references. And the 'would you not exist' question is valid too. How did your parents meet? No computers also means the development of all types of transportation gets set back quite a bit. Perhaps without all our modifications and safeguards, they died before they met/married/had you. |
