Are you ready for the big leap?

It's coming!

http://oi57.tinypic.com/2nlgcm.jpg The interior of one of the early vessels that will leave earth is search of resources when earth dies

Harmonious life in a virtual reality moderated by the government that ensures no pain! no sadness! no boo boos! just endless sex and parties and euphoria fed into your brain via a tube in your neck! While in the real world we will receive messages unconsciously telling our bodies to performing functions such as reproduction or physical labor that keeps the vessel operating. Are your ready for the big leap? Are you ready for destiny of mankind to be fulfilled? Are you ready for evolution to start all over again? To become the germ?

I don't think VR is going to be dominating anything in our lifetimes. At best, it'll be a fun gimmicky thing to do.

Even today, people still have an obsession with the real rather than the imitation. Genuine craft beer. No auto-tuned voices. Public backlash against lab-grown meat. Same thing with VR. It isn't a question of the technology, because even if VR reaches the point where it can imitate life flawlessly, it'll still face people's inherent fear of the simulated.

Why use a pitiful human body for such task when you can use a machine that doesn't get tired?
Screw humans, machines are the future
