Expansion of the Universe puts limits on technology?
 
Two scientists have proposed that:

The acceleration of the expansion of the universe places limits on future developments in technology according to two US cosmologists. Lawrence Krauss and Glenn Starkman of Case Western Reserve University have shown that the acceleration could put a fundamental limit on the total amout of information that can be stored and processed in the future (arXiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0404510). They also calculate that Moore's Law will remain valid for no more than 600 years -- although workers in the semiconductor industry are more pessimistic and think that the famous law will break down in the next decade or two.


This is a classic example of what happens when two geeks spend too much time in research away from daylight and stimuli. Drug use could also be involved.

Take this with a grain of salt and remember "not everything in print is the truth".
