Sometimes I think we take for granted just how revolutionary the computer truly is. Without it, it's difficult to imagine exactly where we would be today. One thing is for sure though - we wouldn't be using the computer for anything. Some things I thought of that wouldn't exist without the computer: 1. Something Awful: Really, this is an obvious one. None of us would be posting here at all if it weren't for computers, and I'd look askance at someone who might suggest that we would. 2. Google: Honestly, "Where Would We Be Without Google?" could easily be a thread in its own right, but, for now, I'll just say if it weren't for the computer, you could kiss this modern convenience goodbye in a heartbeat, or perhaps more appropriately, a Flash (<- A little bit of computer humor  ).3. VLC Media Player: Then again, would this really be a BAD thing? This thread is to ponder just where we would be without the computer.

without computers I wouldn't have to read your posts (or probation reasons) so it's probably a net positive if we ditch them

I dare not dream about an utopian world without people screaming at each other on twitter and facebook But I'm sure it would be better than what we have now

you'd go to work and instead of a computer there'd be paperwork and you'd have that comedy inbox that's always overflowing and you'd have some rubber stamps and you'd stamp the papers like "RECEIVED" or "ACCEPTED" or "VOID" or stuff like that, then you'd have a stapler and you'd staple them together and it'd have that satisfying KA-LUNK feel so basically it'd be great imo

dionysian posted:Some things I thought of that wouldn't exist without the computer: i disagree. the forums would exist on giant rock tablets, and you'd post on them by etching onto them with a rock and hammer. there would also be a front page papyrus that is updated daily, but no one looks at it

Without computer I'd probably have a typewriter instead. And own a copying machine. Maybe even learn stenography. I would go to cinemas again.
