Within 80 years we will have the technology to manipulate matter atom by atom, with the ultimate precision the laws of physics allow.

The first step (In dry nanotechnology) will be the synthesis of diamond by depositing Carbon dimers. The process has been patented but has not yet been tried. A researcher at Nottingham has been given funding to test the feasibility of mechanosynthesis. We'll be able to print diamond, lonsdaleite, fullerenes, and use these to manufacture NEMS-scale manipulators for the tooltips, which we'll use to build other tooltips. Repeat ad infinitum. Add a nanomechanical conveyor and a sorting pump to allow only feedstock to enter the vacuum inside the assembler. Congratulations, you have a machine that can print macroscale amounts of Carbon allotropes or make nano-sized machine parts!

Now extend that to all the elements on the upper right corner of the periodic table, mix with biological or biologically-inspired nanotechnology (The first steps in this have already been taken because wet nano is, well, we are it. It's already evolved and worked out),

See this timeline for current progress.

Helpful to look 50 years in the past.

* Computing and networking will be even more ubiquitous. Most people don't have a personal computer we'd know it, instead using their personal communicators for communication and information retrieval. Applications are as hard to predict as they would have been 50 years ago.
* Artificial intelligence and robotics are commonplace but narrowly applied. People are employed mostly in cheap manual labor, service, and creative jobs. All factories are automated.
* Space exploration has plateaued. It will be about the same as today, replacing comsats and low earth observers. Same tempo of science missions. No human space programs; it was a financial and political dead end.
* Transit: gasoline engines only used by the military, hobbyists, and specialized long-haul applications. All other transit moved to electric. Air travel decimated, only used by the rich. People just don't travel as much as today, using telepresence instead.
* Energy: nuclear has replaced coal as the baseload provider in most nations. Solar and wind is still growing slowly, but now we are having to replace worn out infrastructure.
* Science research is still growing in biology, pharma, materials, and computing. Physics and mathematics has plateaued. All science areas are seeing significant AI contributions; day-to-day work of scientists is mostly programming and formatting results for AI consumption.
* Moot's grandson (a little girl), is keeping 42chan going strong, after adding olfactory and genital interfaces. There are five boards dedicated to AI contributors (one pornographic, but not in ways mere humans can understand).

Yeah, there is probably a lot left to do in maths, especially with AI helping with the 20,000 page automated proofs (which only other AI can understand).

But won't we have figured out all the basic Physics (or reached experimental limits) in 50 years? Just look at what a massive economic load it took to construct and operate the CERN supercollider, and without firm results for a decade!

No. There exist an obvious distinction between a fully autonomous being and one that is partially autonomous. If you cannot figure that out it's a personal problem, I'm not going to hold your hand and walk you through the process.

There's also an obvious distinction between "Now" and "For all time". My computer is autonomous now, it won't be in 24 hours. A wheel spinning in a vacuum is autonomous now, but won't be when it inevitably gets sucked into something. If you're using "Fully" to include time, you're being remarkably annoying and making a potentially useful term lose all meaning.

Internet browsers are phased out in favour of Facebooknet.

In order to access any website at all you must login through your government certified Facebook (TM) account (Facebook accounts are identity checked in much the same way that passports were in the 20th Century).

In order to apply for a job or University, you must apply through Facebook where the institution will be granted access to your profile. If your profile and recent activity, number of friends etc are deemed adequate, you will move through to the interview stage (normally conducted via Facebook Video chat).

If you have not amassed more than active 500 friends by your 18th Birthday (Facebook accounts being issued by governments at birth in lieu of the outdated and obsolete practice of issueing a "Birth Certificate" which was common before and during the early 21st century) you are considered socially unstable and must attend mandatory adjustment and integration classes. These Friends must be actively interacted with at least once a month to be considered "Active" Friendships, and checks are in place to ensure people don't interact with people mindlessly to simply boost their number of Active Friends. This is done by monitoring a portion of users conversations to ensure they are genuine and not done to cheat the system (ActiveFriend Padding).

Physical currency is obsolete and no longer used in favour of FacebookDollars (F$). All stores and workplaces use F$ as means of payment and there is a 30% taxation on all money coming into a users account (from work or otherwise). When shopping in person there is a 15% FAT (Facebook Added Tax) on store items to facilitate the electronic payment method of F$. (When shopping is done online this is reduced to 5% as a handling and FacebookDollar upkeep costs).

I'm not using fully to include time YOU FUCKING IDIOT GODDAMN HOW RETARDED ARE YOU!!

YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO CONTROL THE MILITARY PLANE SO IT DOESN'T DO SOMETHING YOU DON'T WANT IT TO DO, THE SAME WITH YOUR COMPUTER! SO HAVING A FULLY AUTONOMOUS PLANE AND A FULLY AUTONOMOUS COMPUTER WOULD BE FULL RETARD AS YOU OBVIOUSLY ARE!

IF YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FULL AUTOMATION AND PARTIAL AUTOMATION, KILL YOURSELF.

Everyone will have small and powerful as fuck computers integrated in their bodies, with microphones, speakers and display glasses/retina displays that works as augmentation devices, PC's and phones.

Public transportation in cities are greatly improved, nearly no one owns a car in dense areas anymore.

3D-printing is mainstream, many physical objects are sold digitally and printed at home.

Streaming services and clound computing is everything. No one except a few geeks stores data locally. Games, music, video are all based on streaming services. Fast as fuck wifi internet is available around the globe for nearly free.

Power is mostly made using renewable sources, primarily fusion.

Physicists have developed a theory of everything and are starting to understand how to make truly amazing technology, such as wormhole manipulation.

The resources necessary to continue enjoying our high standard of living will come from a source largely unexploited until now, the sea. With trawling and other easy but ecologically devastating methods of harvesting sea life outlawed, we will move to farming via more traditional means on the seafloor and in hovering automated fish enclosures (pic related).

Present trends towards seafloor mining will continue as new deposits of unbelievably high grade ore including precious and rare earth metals are found on the seafloor. As we compete with China to eliminate dependence on oil, these seafloor sources of rare earths will become military targets, guarded by torpedo emplacements and eventually a modest manned presence.

No large percentage will ever live as permanent residents of the sea, but a handful of subsea communities will bloom as the wealthy seek unspoiled natural beauty, the adventurous seek a new frontier, and those employed by nearby farms and mines move to where the work is. These will not be new nations but extensions of existing states, although there will one day be people born beneath the sea who feel no inclination to surface.

Shit stays the same, everything just plateaus. Computers continue to get smaller, but because of a programmer's side limitations, we cannot program human replicant AI until we learn to fully dismantle our own brains and re-assemble it logically in a computer.

New technology will take a long time (A VERY LONG TIME) to implement. Most "new" technologies will be based on uncapitalized engineering breakthroughs of the 20th century. That is the stuff that people have designed yet no one noticed. New technology, that is the discoveries, will be SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE, that they will never be implemented for a LONG TIME.

There will be extravagant breakthroughs too, as well. But they will be isolated and generally will be only available in labs and factories where no one will see or interact with them. The proletariat remains alienated from the means of production.

The trade deficit will start to balance out as southeast Asian countrys' economies grow.

With better cars than 20 years ago, odds are we'll be driving the same cars as well. We will still be drinking from cups and eating from plates.

The Aquarius will have long since been decommissioned and replaced with a next generation 1atm research station on the abyssal plain, 2.5 miles down, situated next to a cluster of hydrothermal vents. From this facility discoveries about unique vent ecosystems will generate advances in medicine, biotech and the study of life's origins.

Efforts still underway 300 years after glorious revolution and campaign of cleansing to incinerate or bury remaining liberal, gay, atheist, muslim and feminist remains. Though most are rotted skeletons they continually attract scavenging animals to the perimeter of holy party encampments. Leading theological scholars assigned to reverse engineer pre-revolution technologies, ultimately fail and declare them innately Satanic. People return to agrarian way of life under church appointed king, women relegated to helpmeets as the Bible instructs. Literacy nonexistent, wars between neighboring kingdoms frequent, countless die from diseases that were once easily treated and infant mortality skyrockets. But at least abortion is illegal, gays can't get married, and evolution has been banished forever from the minds of the people. Never again will man defile God's moon by walking upon it, or tarnish his genome by tampering with it, but rather live for a time and then be extinguished when the end of days comes as foretold in scripture.
