Well, some of it is correct, the voice controlled music for one.

What will the home of 2023 look like? An emaciated pensioner, frozen to the radiator they were too frightened to turn on.
They never predicted that!

i dont think it will be a pensioner as they will have the sense to put on a jumper extra warm clothing and wrap a quilt around them similar to what they had to do as kids when they had no c/heating and woke up with ice on the inside of the windows .
More than likely to be a younger person who have been spoon fed their entire lives
Eh up, another dumb young people hater, just like that old crochety miser, hatejob.
and the halfwit troll makes his usual appearance
They got most of that right. The smart glass was overstated but they got flat screen TVs
According to Maggie Thatcher, the biggest problem the UK would face in the 21st century would be what to do with all the leisure time we would have due to advances in technology.
Maggie said that the micro chip would do away with the need for human labour in factories ect.
Like most politicians, she didn't know what she was talking about.
Back then we had food mountains and wine lakes, now we have food banks and debt.

And the highest inflation rate in the G7.
A lot of that is because of a weak currency and the UK's over reliance on external trade with 'third countries'.
Well we all know the big reason for that, and why even the torygraph is starting to refer to the UK as the 'sick man of europe' again...
Only this time there will be no helping hand. And many predicted this outcome!
The UK's economy could be transformed for the better by a simple reversal of policy. Sadly there are still too many simple people around who wouldn't countenance that - for the moment!
Another prediction:
"In 1954, the Atomic Energy Commission chairman predicted that within 15 years nuclear power would make electricity “too cheap to meter.”
Instead we could be looking at an excess death rate this coming winter higher than that claimed for the 'virus'.
(unless of course the ONS changes the way it compiles the way it records such deaths yet again in order to get the 'right' figures!)
We had much higher inflation in the seventies and what do you know, we are still here and in 50 years (notwithstanding Putin) some of us will still be here, no good bitching just get on with life and do the best you can
Why do you feel the need to add unnecessary exclamation marks after most of your sentences, when they are meat to be used sparingly?
We had COVID in the 19/20’s and a lot are not still here.
I guess my post is equally as irrelevant as yours.
I suspect ellal's voice goes up a couple of octaves when finishing a spoken sentence to mirror the exclamation marks of the written sentence. I also suspect Ellal does a lot of this when talking - he certainly does it when writing……
Disagree, my post was relevant to the preceding post bemoaning the highest inflation rate in the G7 and the causes, pros and cons and how to fix it. No one had previously mentioned covid so you win on irrelevance. However in relation to the OP you are quite right funny how things go off at a tangent !!!We had COVID in the 19/20’s and a lot are not still here.

Here's an interesting one from the 19 60s the days of when you had to get off your bottom to change channel.
