This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

This is just the beginning. Two centuries? More like 20 years, the technology is improving at an exponential rate.
As a society we need a plan.
Yeah, and people in the 50s thought there will be flying cars in the year 2000. The tech isn't there yet and is approaching physical limits. Even if, being scared of "I won't need to work anymore" is silly.
