It'll mass produce and implant neural microchip Ipods that only have a Nickleback Revival Tour playlist; so that their songs are playing non stop in your head with no way to stop it, even if you plug your ears. Victims of the implant will feel psychologically compelled to encourage or enforce others the get the implant as well. Even if you remove the microchip, your neural wiring has been permanently scarred by Nickleback. Causing withdrawl symptoms akin to meth addiction. You'll break into cold sweats, uncontrollable muscle spasms, panic attacks, hum or even scream the lyrics to their songs until you get your next hit. Truley, this is the most grimdark future.

      This is totally sci-fi but if we had machines small enough to enter the body and perform tasks, and we understood the function of sleep well enough, I do think it would be possible to use little machines to do the "cleaning up" and consolidating of memories and all that while awake. An insane level of challenge, though.

      We have to know the local gravity and atmospheric pressure (I.e. air resistance) of the studio in which _WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEL of Future History_ is filmed in order to find out how quickly it stops.
      For example, if this were being filmed in the void of space (which it clearly isn’t), it would take basically forever (and that’s not an exaggeration) to stop as it would only lose velocity through its own passive energy radiation.
