I just want to have a little home, a girlfriend, a small baby car, a computer, phone and healthy food.

That is all want. That's something people had already 50 years ago.
Why is it that despite our technological advances I cant get these few things with working 8 hours a day.
Seriously for the things I have listed, it should be sufficient to work 6 hours a day. What is wrong, who tries to fuck me? Why is life the way it is? I want to enjoy a happy, healthy, balanced life, why is it not possible if it could be possible?

I bet that you also want that little home of yours to have running water, electricity, gas, and internet. I bet that you also want to have a mechanic nearby that could fix your car in a relatively short time, and to have gasoline available any time that you need it. I bet you want to watch movies, listen to music and play games on your computer. I bet you want service available in your phone wherever you go, and I bet you also want to buy healthy food whenever you feel hungry. I also assume you want to have doctors available to treat you when you are sick, and have the sense of security in knowing that you could call the cops when something bad happens that is beyond your control, and that it would be awesome if some military was protecting the borders of your country.
You can't have all of this without working 8 hours a day, sorry. It's a trade off that is necessary in order to live in a first world country.

yes I want running water because thats the only water I drink. Also with eating lots of healthy fresh food and only water 85% of the shit that gets produced gets not used by me and I save lots of human ressources. The healthier way of life makes me need less doctors and dentists, less drugs etc.
Yes I like to listen to music but I dont need music videos where millions of dollars get used to produce. Also I like films, but if people have more free time and work only 6 hours, there is more time to do things. Many people would still be artistic me included.

I was told in the future we would only have to work 2-3 hours a day, 30 years later were working just as hard as then.

jobs are created just to keep people exhausted, stop them from reproducing, placate the masses, and have no real positive impact on society.

>In the year 1930, John Maynard Keynes predicted that technology would have advanced sufficiently by century’s end that countries like Great Britain or the United States would achieve a 15-hour work week. There’s every reason to believe he was right. In technological terms, we are quite capable of this. And yet it didn’t happen. Instead, technology has been marshaled, if anything, to figure out ways to make us all work more. In order to achieve this, jobs have had to be created that are, effectively, pointless. Huge swathes of people, in Europe and North America in particular, spend their entire working lives performing tasks they secretly believe do not really need to be performed. The moral and spiritual damage that comes from this situation is profound. It is a scar across our collective soul. Yet virtually no one talks about it.

>Why did Keynes’ promised utopia – still being eagerly awaited in the ‘60s – never materialise? The standard line today is that he didn’t figure in the massive increase in consumerism. Given the choice between less hours and more toys and pleasures, we’ve collectively chosen the latter. This presents a nice morality tale, but even a moment’s reflection shows it can’t really be true. Yes, we have witnessed the creation of an endless variety of new jobs and industries since the ‘20s, but very few have anything to do with the production and distribution of sushi, iPhones, or fancy sneakers.

>> No.8916986

>>8916959
>But rather than allowing a massive reduction of working hours to free the world’s population to pursue their own projects, pleasures, visions, and ideas, we have seen the ballooning not even so much of the “service” sector as of the administrative sector, up to and including the creation of whole new industries like financial services or telemarketing, or the unprecedented expansion of sectors like corporate law, academic and health administration, human resources, and public relations. And these numbers do not even reflect on all those people whose job is to provide administrative, technical, or security support for these industries, or for that matter the whole host of ancillary industries (dog-washers, all-night pizza deliverymen) that only exist because everyone else is spending so much of their time working in all the other ones.


>It’s as if someone were out there making up pointless jobs just for the sake of keeping us all working. And here, precisely, lies the mystery. In capitalism, this is exactly what is not supposed to happen. Sure, in the old inefficient socialist states like the Soviet Union, where employment was considered both a right and a sacred duty, the system made up as many jobs as they had to (this is why in Soviet department stores it took three clerks to sell a piece of meat). But, of course, this is the very sort of problem market competition is supposed to fix. According to economic theory, at least, the last thing a profit-seeking firm is going to do is shell out money to workers they don’t really need to employ. Still, somehow, it happens.

https://foundersfund.com/the-future/#

Are There Any Real Technologies Left?

Have we reached the end of the line, a sort of technological end of history? Once every last retailer migrates onto the Internet, will that be it? Is the developed world really developed, full stop? Again, it may be helpful to revisit previous conceptions of the future to see if there are any areas where VC might yet profitably invest.


The future envisioned from the perspective of the 1960s was hard to get to, but not impossible, and people were willing to entertain the idea. We now laugh at the Nucleon and Pan Am to the moon while applauding underpowered hybrid cars and Easyjet, and that’s sad. The future that people in the 1960s hoped to see is still the future we’re waiting for today, half a century later.. Instead of Captain Kirk and the USS Enterprise, we got the Grinder, Fuckbook, Jewtube and a Twatter.

What seemed futuristic then remains futuristic now, in part because these technologies were suppressed or never received the sustained funding lavished on the electronics industries. Commercializing the technologies that have languished seems as good a place as any to start looking for ideas.

Medicine has been the beneficiary of two radical developments over the past sixty years: the discovery of the structure of DNA in 1952 and the rise of information technologies in the 1960s. One would expect that the discovery of life’s code, combined with the power of computing, would have radically increased the quality and length of human life-spans. But life-spans aren’t getting longer as quickly as they used to, and in white countries (US, Russia) they’re even getting shorter. Worse, the number of new drugs introduced each year – especially important new drugs (which you can measure by FDA fast-tracking) – is surprisingly low and well below the quarter-century average.

Why did work hours stop declining circa 1940? Furthermore why haven’t work hours declined even more? Why aren’t we working 15 hr weeks? This isn’t 1840 anymore.

it's the wealthy elite killing off associated advanced technology as soon as it appears in their field, usually by buying the legal rights to the research and gutting the research staff immediately. This happens almost every day. There is no massive secret organization doing this, it's a department of almost any billion-dollar company whose singular task is to discover this progressive project and strategize to eliminate it immediately as competition. At a smaller level, they will just buy out a company making such a product or discovery and remove it.

This is also why Capitalism and "muh free market" are bigger misguided notions than Communism, because in what world would economically-driven societies not have their wealthy elite immediately combine to discredit and destroy a superior product that threatens them?

This isn't some larp or anything. I wish it was.
The U.S. has multiple deep science research projects which use skunk works as a cover. The main development happens at individual sites scattered across the country and are done by regular contracting companies. If you've paid any attention to the news you already know a number of them. Lockheed martin Booz allen hamilton, etc. The individual components have no previous analogs, which is unusual as nearly all of our technology today is a derivative of a previous technology. For example, OLED or organic LEDs have no previous research from before the 1950s. The work is entirely novel and simply springs into existence around this time. OLED is the derivative of experimenting with these different organic substances which have not been previously identified before hand. While it is easy to call this reverse engineering, it's subtler than that. It's a reverse build up through imitation and development. Each stage working out the developmental problems that arose while trying to mimic the same basic design.
Which is the unusual part and the indicator to me while I was in that there was something more unusual going on.
Starting in 2010, advances in radio recon had allowed us to begin penetrating into new systems that adversaries such as the Chinese and Russians did not want us meddling in. From a number of the CRITIC reports, we pieced together a time line of activities and attacks that dealt with similar technology, only practically applied.
Individually these seemed unusual aside from the same consistency of design with no known analogs.
An R-bed entry though was the indication that it was related. The details outlined communications between Kapustin yar and moscow about testing of a multi vector system. The results indicated that the vector system performed as expected but did not attain the same level of thrust as the Izvestkovaya craft.
