This article was nominated for deletion on 9/5/2007. The result of the discussion was keep.[edit] Kurzweil
"Futurist Ray Kurzweil puts 2029 as the year most likely for The Singularity" Well, in the 2040s-page, it says "One prediction (by Ray Kurzweil) places the emergence of the technological singularity in 2045.". If I'm not wrong, in each new book, Kurzweil has adjusted the time in which he believes the singularity will happen. Isn't 2029 a very old prediction? Ran4 23:24, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
- Concur. The linked article on technological singularity also cites 2045.-- era (Talk | History) 19:55, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Optometrist joke
The sentence
It is predicted that optometrists will have a one year discount on all eyewear in 2020.
needs an award. Still, is this perhaps just a little bit too obscure?
That's been explained now. But seriously – who predicts it? -- Magnus Holmgren 18:05, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
I think we should have more science fiction Predictions here, as it would be the decade that the great cyberpunks novels of the 1980s were set in144.139.143.152 15:54, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
--- DELETE Generation Y crap about ruling the world. This is pure speculation...and to say that Generation Y will rule the world until 2065?! Whoever wrote this obviously has an inferiority complex, and is from Gen Y.
[edit] Disney
2025 - Disney occurs to have last movies soon.
I was going to delete this since I have no idea what it means, but then i was thinking i might have something to do with copyrights expirign? can anyone make sense of this?mellery 01:29, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
- I suggest deleting it. This sentence makes no sense as written. If certain copyrights are set to expire in 2025, they can (and perhaps should) be noted. But this sentence (as written) is nonsensical garbage. 66.17.118.207 14:42, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed. Deleted. --zenohockey 04:47, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Old vandalism discussion
The talk page contained some comments from 2006 regarding the restoration of the talk page from vandalism. I removed those comments after verifying that the vandalism was properly reverted. If you are historically inclined, see the diff.-- era (Talk | History) 20:04, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
- Actually you also need the original vandalism and the first (sort-of) attempt at cleaning it up in order for that to make sense.-- era (Talk | History) 19:35, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
