Checked bags will get a Radio Frequency Identification ( RFID ) tag that allows it to be tracked in substantial - time using receiving set waves . Scanners along the journey will track a bag ’s movement , and then send the location information to the rider ’s app .
The future feels bleak at time , like matter are getting worse . Really , things have always been bad ; warfare and injustice and hatred is repeated , and the past was far bad than the present . The internet simply give us the resources to see all the badness around us . There ’s more information uncommitted , news spreads tight , communication is too commodious . We become acutely aware of so much badness the twinkling it materialize . Anyways that ’s what I imagine I ’d be theoretically thinking about if my flight took off , and I get to watch my luggage get left behind , soaring into the abysm .
