    The thing with the Jedi mind trick is that only Jedi’s think it works.

    Everyone else just see a scary lightsaber guy asking them to repeat a sentence and are more than happy to comply if it means they get left alone.

    There’s a limit to how much you can pretend though.

    • Letting an old man and a kid drive through a checkpoint? Fine, someone else’s problem.

    • Selling an obvious narc deathsticks? Yeah, maybe going home and rethinking your life is the right call here.

    • Handing over all your life savings for a bad deal? Uh, no actually.









  • …not quite sure where the hostility is coming from.

    The question OP asked is what is likely to vanish in 10 years, and I described the already forced-digitization of household appliances and took it one step further to depict Appliances-as-a-Service, based on the model the printer industry is already rolling out.
