Time is a finite resource. Im running out of it already. After a few breathless breaths， my day is near already over. So， when technology chooses vindictively to not work， like when your computer freezes or theres no phone signal， its as if machines hate the idea of your happiness and your success. They squander your precious time. My idea is to create a personal time bank. This records exactly how much of your day has been lost to this sadistic technology. Just before you sleep， youll strap on your phone onto your head， turning it into a personal virtual reality environment. PING. Suddenly youre on Brad and Angelinas idyllic island， a perfect getaway. In real terms youll be there for exactly the time you lost during the day. In neural terms， time will stretch by 10 times. You can also connect with others， and group your lost time， so it feels even longer. This way， one lost frustrating minute from the day will feel like 60 rejuvenating minutes on a better side of the planet. You just got revenge on technology. Maybe time doesnt have to be a finite resource after all.

時(shí)間是一種有限的資源，而我正在將它消耗殆盡。經(jīng)過(guò)幾次上氣不接下氣的呼吸之后，一天便這樣接近了尾聲。因此，當(dāng)科技產(chǎn)品惡意地選擇罷工時(shí)，比如說(shuō)電腦停止運(yùn)作或者手機(jī)失去了信號(hào)，仿佛連機(jī)器都厭惡你對(duì)幸福與成功的想法。它們浪費(fèi)了你寶貴的時(shí)間。我想創(chuàng)造一個(gè)私人時(shí)間銀行。這個(gè)銀行會(huì)精確地記錄你在殘酷的科技產(chǎn)品面前浪費(fèi)的時(shí)間。在你剛準(zhǔn)備睡覺(jué)之前，你把手機(jī)用帶子捆綁在你的頭上，把它轉(zhuǎn)變成私人的虛擬的現(xiàn)實(shí)世界。乒。突然你會(huì)置身于布拉德和安吉麗娜的閑適恬靜的島嶼，一次完美的逃離。從現(xiàn)實(shí)的角度來(lái)說(shuō)，你在那里度過(guò)的時(shí)間正是你在一天中所浪費(fèi)的時(shí)間。從神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)的角度說(shuō)，時(shí)間會(huì)延長(zhǎng)十倍。你也可以聯(lián)系其他人，把浪費(fèi)的時(shí)間聚集起來(lái)，使時(shí)間顯得更長(zhǎng)。這樣，你一天里所浪費(fèi)的令人懊喪的一分鐘將會(huì)變成重生的六十分鐘，存在于這個(gè)星球的更美好的另一邊。你就這樣成功報(bào)復(fù)了科技產(chǎn)品。畢竟，也許時(shí)間并非總是一種有限的資源。
