Seeing as how I work daily with computers the size of pizza boxes that are thousands of times more powerful than the supercomputers of the 1980s, and my PHONE contains a processor at least a thousand times as powerful as the million-dollar mainframes of the 1960s, I sometimes become inured to the amazing technology we have today.
But, sometimes I'm reminded of the fact that we live in what people even 20 years ago would call a fantastic future. The latest reminder? This prototype for an implantable "tattoo" cell phone, powered by bioelectricity.
It's not necessarily practical...I mean, how would you upgrade? But even so...holy blapp, man.
