get frozen and end up in some hell-scape like idiocracy

lol its basically futurama from fry’s perspective or where fry, bender, and the professor make a time machine that only goes foward

monkey’s paw: its a slave planet where all that inhabitants are forced to work and all computers are repurposed to generate AI images

yeah I see that. lube would get a big need, but my car runs out of gas several times before I need an oil change and retail stores do carry oil. ironically canola oil and vegetable oil can be used as motor oil. when you run out of oil then things start to grind to a stop.

but machinery would become too costly to maintain and people would stop using it. if a valve broke on a engine I doubt people in the post apocalypses would repair it. unless it was part of a town where people would have both the need and expertise to fix it. there would be easier to maintain alternative of machines that wouldn’t require lube, filters, replacing of metal parts.

after a century an internal combustion engine would become unusable scrape

that is kinda the appeal that its new and unknown; its something novel to explore. losing people you know know is a big price, you could hope that someone comes with you into the cyrochamber

i see so you’d live in best of times as much as possible instead of skipping to the great reset. i dont think we can get set back that far simple because of GMO of plants and global trade. also refined metals would still exist. a car engine can rust or break but the engine can be melted into farm equipment. so we are safe from bronze age. id say we would be a cross between iron age with modern tech

thats why im assuming the science works without any drawbacks. i was thinking that would cool to see cultural slide show, but at some point you’d probably not get reference and you would be able to tell what’s sci fi or what product placement. there would be words that start popping up that you wouldn’t know.

the period pieces of the future will probably be fun like how would they depict the 2020s and 2010s

ironically i thought that inspired this would you rather was making IP for Disney and having Disney cryogenically freeze you just to thaw you out to prove your alive so keep the copywrite out of public domain. of course disney would pay for your stasis

Hmmm would be weird to enter a new world with nobody you know and at best descendants (or Young family members that remember you) that care about you. Yeah I guess if you did enter the freezing chamber you’d be giving up anything that made you happy now

monkeys paw: USD is no longer used

yeah i was thinking about that. like would you wake up in a dictatorship or a time with way more problems than now

lol i dont expect to solve problems witht this would you rather
