A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

AI nowaday is like Bluetooth 20 years ago: they put it everywhere where it's almost never useful (feddit.it)

Or like 4D 20 years ago

Or 5D 30 years ago

In all honesty, it seems like they've been trying to make 3D happen every ten to fifteen years since the 1950s. And they tried making VR a thing in the 80s and 90s, too until it went to sleep for a little while.

I remember wanting one of these so bad when they came out. I even got to play one at circuit City once time.

I played one at… I want to say Wal-mart (or maybe K-mart?). The demo station was on display for maybe a year, but it was never working except for one glorious time I got to play… uh, something, I think either tennis or the Wario platformer. Clearly the game didn't stick in my head, but the overall experience was amazing.
