I think in 1980 3.7 GB of data seemed further away then a flying car.

That's....actually a really good point

80s cyberpunk where they have video calling and moon resorts, but the internet is closer to a system of carrier pidgeons than whatever the fuck this is.

We have the tech for flying cars, it's just not practical or economical. We've even got flying bikes and good jet packs

Flying cars would be a nightmare for the FAA. Helicopters are enough for cases where you need to land in a small area where fixed-wing aircraft can’t

The idiots around my place can't even get around in regular cars. Pretty damn sure half of them would be dead within 2 months so it's flying cars.

Oof imagine the severity of car accidents when they occur in the sky
