When people's desires and emotional needs can be satisfied through virtual, is it necessary to have a fixed marriage relationship between a pair of partners?

Or to expand, when all human sensory needs can be simulated by the brain, what will the world look like? People just need to lie there to stay alive, and the brain can help you through life.

About Black Mirror Season 5

After watching the fifth season, I just feel that this season's episodes have lost their former demeanor. When "Black Mirror" lacks brain holes, metaphors, humor, irony and black technology that breaks thinking, he is no longer a serious and sober gentleman, but a little boy who secretly wears his father's formal clothes. Shaky and awkward to learn to walk.

This season of Black Mirror's story is looking more and more real, and it's a complete loss of what Black Mirror is. But at the same time, these reverie close to life always give people a "false" feeling that they will happen.

The function of "Black Mirror" is definitely not to educate. It wants to make you think in a way, open up another way of thinking that you have never discovered, and change the perspective of viewing the technological society. And "Black Mirror", which has lost its ability to induce thinking, should go where.

    The second episode of the fifth season of Black Mirror # gives 7.5 points. Some people say that this episode is about driving, don’t play on the phone, go to your mother. The mission of Black Mirror is to satirize the impact of technology on human life through black humor. There is still a lot of irony in this episode, such as those senior assistants in Fragments of Life, the think tank, and the FBI. They all look stupid. For example, when a daughter died, the mother could not obtain her social account password. For example, the policewoman said that she should not shoot as a last resort, and finally she shot. There are also interns who killed him because they wanted to save him. In fact, he was the murderer. The other party's drunk driving death is considered full responsibility. For example, the founder of a social company can't control the company's direction in the end. There is a special department to study how to attract people's attention. The black mirror is still observing the impact of technology on you in this era. Perhaps its angle did not give us the freshness and creative stimulation that at the beginning, but Black Mirror has been practicing and exploring the impact of technology on human life. It is still the first-rate TV series of this era.
