To be fair, first we had to slice them really thin and put lightning in them

Convincing all the magic smoke to stay inside those rocks is a task and a half.

[–] thurstylark@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

We do light magic on the flat rock to teach it how to think, and what it's first think is every time it alives.

We've all got magic boxes that can talk to each other and contain the sum total of all current human knowledge

We use it for cats and porn

Just wait until our devices can materialize any food we want from just electricity. Imagine how lazy and fat we'll all be.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

I live in America. Don't need to imagine.

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean we basically can. I press some buttons and whatever meal I want shows up at my house.

It's not quite Star Trek replicators, but as far as millions of years of humans would be concerned, it might as well be.

dont forget the ads

Shit’s literal magic. We dug rocks out of the earth, broke them down, built them back up again in a very specific way, etched them with conductive runes, taught those runes how to use electricity to do math, and now I can shitpost by telling the runes in my phone to scream 1’s and 0’s at other runes across my house.

And don't even get me started on sand

It's coarse and rough and irritating.

[–] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

We really just taught em to count. Actually, really they're just flashing

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 28 points 1 year ago

Lots of digging.

You clearly have never played minecraft. Go touch some square grass!

They started by punching the tree.

Thanks to the comments here If I ever unexpectedly travel through time I'll be able to teach them about computers. Now I just have to learn advanced chemistry and learn how to create everything else.

Very slowly, and then very quickly.

You see, when a boy rock and a girl rock love eachother very much...

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 6 points 1 year ago

This is not a natural landscape. You don't get fields of grass like this without human intervention. This started in the bronze age, so just because your local human-made landscape is green, make no mistakes.

Bit by-the-by, though, because obviously computers are completely awesome, but real nature is not this placid homogeneous scene

Multiple people, not only 1

[–] niktemadur@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

By harnessing that thing which is all over this natural place - electromagnetism. It is a quantum leap in the human experience, like harnessing fire, or agriculture.
