The future is near

At least, its echoes are already evident: many of the things that fantastists and film directors have “imagined” have either already entered our life or are about to enter.





1. You will not surprise anyone with the fantastic touch interface of the computers of the future from the film “Dissenting Opinion”: Microsoft is already launching it into a series.

2. Online-games are gradually replacing reality with people: SecondLife, WoW and others ... many have become accustomed to all sorts of notes in the press that people spend day and night playing, forgetting about food

3. A big brother a couple of years ago seemed to us only the prerogative of special services.

4. ... you can continue the list yourself ...

I am gradually getting used to all of this, but today, in a certain way, I was finished off with an article about another high-rise in Dubai:



Pentominium is a new word in architecture. In the literal and figurative sense. It comes from the synthesis of the words penthouse and condominium, that is, we have a condominium of penthouses. And the truth is that in this half-kilometer residential tower there will be no ordinary apartments. From above and to the bottom - only exclusively luxury accommodation. According to one personal residence per floor.

Not reminiscent of the Citadel of Half-Life 2? And maybe it is being built ?? ..
