Social Media Frame

Idea: An app which runs on "smart glasses" and allows you to view the most recent social media post(s) of whoever you're looking at. The primary purpose is to see if you're compatible with them (or see if they're crazy) before flirting with them. Also: the TV show "You" and questioning whether the app is creepy, altering your flirting strategy based on their social media, we each share our most recent tweet and discuss whether it'd discourage women from flirting with us

Manually-Controlled Moonbots

Idea: To build a moon colony using remote-control robots piloted by uneducated factory workers. Also: generational space penis envy, giving uneducated people jobs controlling remote-control moon robots to keep them from revolting and destroying society, Elon Musk's AI-based robot built Mars colony might lead to the AI-based robot apocalypse but a remote-control-based robot built moon colony might help us merge with machines and save us from the AI-based robot apocalypse

Ballpit Moon Dome

Idea: A colony inside a moon crater where the roof is self-repairing and is made out of small balloons. Also: questioning whether the idea makes sense, a roof collapse where the balloons fall into the crater and everyone suffocates would look like the most horrific birthday party of all time

Innovation Olympics

Idea: A new type of Olympics where each event is designed to promote innovation in human biological enhancement/recovery, sporting equipment technology, or both; events include Human Battering Ram, Vertical Running, Flugtag (human powered flying machines), Artificial Liver Drinking Contest, and Team Pole Vault (where the pole vaulter goes so high they need to parachute down). Also: a moderate amount of danger and serious injury is encouraged because it advances the technology of medicine and physical therapy

Idea: A visual indicator that a woman is underage so you don't accidentally hit on her.

Tech Ideas for Racial Equality

Idea: Three tech-based ideas for transforming society in a way which would lead to more racial equality, including a new grade-school teaching system ("Teach or Die"), a new low-cost futuristic type of housing ("Stuff-On-Demand Housing"), and a new architectural/city-planning framework ("Garage Cities") which would encourage low-cost and flexible entrepreneurship and would also reduce the spread of COVID-19 and other airborne diseases

Raciogastrointestinal Harmony

Idea: To solve racism by forcing everybody to wear augmented-reality race-swapping glasses which cause them to see their family and their favorite celebrities as the race that they hate the most. Also, a theory that the reason it's hard to digest "ethnic food" (or food from other cultures/races) is racism, and therefore that ending racism will cause both racial and gastrointestinal harmony

Idea: An app which detects that you've thrown your phone and simulates an old school angry phone slam to the person on the other end of the call. Also: maybe automatically delete the person on the other end of the call from your contacts, maybe use a custom angry hangup message instead of a "phone slam" sound
