Thought 1)

If an alien race came here and decided to take over but keep some of us as useful helpers, what trick would they use to do it? How about GIVE(?) us some fancy technology that we would use to centralise and automate our global society? It is rumoured that semi conductor technology came from ETs. If that is true, then that is good reason to believe we are being taken over and not in a nice way.

Thought 2)

Technology, in a crude sense, is EFFORT+(TECHNOLOGY?)=PERCEIVED GAIN. Using one stone to smash another stone is using 'technology'. We've probably always had it in some form or other. Technology is an 'amplifier' of our effort.

What I find absolutely fascinating about the current state of technology is that it is no longer just an amplifier. It has in many ways now become an oscillator. An oscillator is an amplifier with part of the output fed back into the input creating a self perpetuating loop which 'rings' at the resonant frequency of the complete circuit.

The more automated our society becomes the more I notice these oscillations. I sense that the people who are trying to control us are actually orchestrating the oscillations while 'we' are just trying to use the amplifier aspect of the technology.

Ultimately, an oscillator no longer needs an external input at all. It will stop listening to us altogether. The only input it will require will be a power supply. That's our greatest defence if want to prevent a 'runaway' feedback loop. disconnect the power supply.

my 2 thoughts.
