Hopefully I'll be dead.

Not literally anything, but the probabilities are pretty drastic.

Lasers can be good weapons, especially in space.
In atmosphere, water vapor, energy requirements, etc can fuck up a lasers effectiveness. But even here it could be far more destructive than a bullet.
In space, where firing a bullet at something 186,000 miles away would take about a hundred hours to get there... or a laser a second. Not to mention space is a balance between too hot and too cold, and targeting specific things might cripple an opposing starship easily.

I'm going to predict, not the singularity.

Eh, that's pretty weird prediction shitty too.
People act like it's right around the corner, but as of last year when my PC crashed, there was still no known experiments actually showing age reversal, or even slowing down, technology with peer reviewed tests done.
It'd be like people crazy about teleportation news when there's been no legit teleportation testing done yet everyone assumes it'll be the hot new industry this time next decade. Even worse, actually, as aging experiments take longer to get results in.
It feels like scientists are getting investors hyped and everyone else assumes the major breakthroughs are coming a mile a minute.

Tbf most of them weren't in any way predictions, really. It's all just shit they figured was coming eventually that they got right, not really an actual "we'll have this by 1990" declarations of the future.

Not really Build the base in a cave. Or just cover it with iirc 3 inches of dirt.
Or whatever the shielding used in every fucking thing we have in space right now. We've already worked that out for just "sending a person" there.

Not a Damn thing. Not polluting the earth with me, I was a failure and it should've ended before me but by God it'll end with me.

I predicted I'd be dead by now. So many new year resolutions failed.

Yeah. Just too many people making too many predictions about too many subjects.
I mean even the end of the world, millions assume it's within the next 5 years, and have for seemingly quite a while. So pretty much every 5 years that's millions of wrong predictions.
