More good stuff from Chuck. I wonder if and when he's going to do Galaxy's Child?

You just noticed that? When I was like 12 and watching it for the first time I knew it was creepy.

To me that would be exactly the problem with interactive solid holograms. Being able to scan anyone you want and design a personality to it and then... date it. For example, I could scan or make an approximation of a celebrity or even a porn star I like.

In my eyes, it is creepy because it is believable.

Date? No, if I had a holographic Christy Mack I'm not going to waste time "dating."

Porn stars would license their likenesses out for exactly that. Even stock it with a personality like their own public persona. Not much different in kind from what happens today where porn stars sell sex toys cast from their own anatomy.

Bah. I can download porn for free nowadays without even buying their DVDs which is why I have 100 GB worth.

Joking....









No I am not.

Sex toys like that is physical whereas hologram patterns is digital. So someone will come up with a plan to give out or sell pirated likenesses for the cheap.

Very likely. But porn companies keep selling porn even though there's an essentially infinite amount of pirated porn available for free today. Don't see why it would be different in the future.

Wow, there's a thought. No money in the future... everyone strives to improve themselves. So the only porn stars will be the ones who do porn because they find it a fulfilling and enriching life. Gotta wonder at the kind of person that will be.

Sluts. Sluts everywhere. After all a slut is a woman with the morals of a man.
