The broad portfolio of life-altering innovations on our horizon, from the plausible to the speculative. This encompasses viable fusion reactors, general artificial intelligence, effective gene editing therapies, advanced robotics, brain-computer interfaces, and megascale engineering. Unlike Singularity tech, future technologies have theoretical roadmaps and active research; they're the things we see coming but haven't quite mastered. They promise (or threaten) to reshape society, work, and what it means to be human within the next 50-100 years.

Example: "My grandpa's 'future technology' was the microwave oven. Mine is the neural lace that lets me stream knowledge directly to my brain, though right now I mostly use it to memorize pizza menus and win at trivia night." Future Technologies

Flat Earth Reality UBI Technological Future

It's a theory (more like a fact) that the earth is flat. In a era where robots and AI are doing more and more jobs (including art unfortunately. As an artist, I'm pissed off at AI "Art") and are being automated, we need to tax the robots to have a $5,000 a month UBI (Universal Basic Income) each month for 60 months or 5 years, and bump up the cash for cans from 5 cents or 10 cents per can to like 25 cents to 50 cents per can and provide free gym memberships and free mealprep and free card for food and also a free bed every 3 years and a free couch every 1 year and Universal Basic Free Cheese. Adderall and Ritalin and Modafinil and Adipex and Dexedrine and Armodafinil or Wellbutrin legal for all and you buy it monthly or it's prescribed for ADHD free. Praise Jesus. And MDEA and EA for PTSD.

The future can be bright. $5,000 a month UBI and MDEA HCl (3,4-MethyleneDioxyEthylAmphetamine HCl) and EA HCl (EthylAmphetamine HCl) and Propylhexedrine HCl and Methiopropamine HCl and Cyclopentamine HCl for PTSD and ADHD. Free American Cheese a huge block monthly. Money to buy Cheddar Cheese, Doritos, Cheetos, Chips and Dip, Chicken Pizza, Cheeseburgers, Pumpkin Pies, Reese's chocolate and peanut butter, Hershey chocolate, free foods, and more. Praise Jesus. Flat Earth Reality UBI Technological Future.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
