I found my self so bored and surfing on net with so many useless sites. Many new tech devices and such, and start to ask myself what was the biggest discovery of humanbeing, a single mind is hard to find answer and wanna share the idea with you guys:)
so I start

My opinion it was silicon, so I can enjoy more of 3d graphics and complex process, same time it can make the boobs bigger:)

Douchebag

Yeah...bigger boobs. They'll save you if you get shot in the leg and the wound got infected leading to gangreen

Modern Medicine/Healthcare.


Yoica

penicillin is pretty cool, but I'll say that man's biggest discovery is making fire.

Morbid


Daekesh



Moo

Itkovian
Daekesh
Caladan
Hetan


Shiftey

Hard to judge which one is the most important as there cannot be one without other, but I'd say:

Steam Power

kicked off the industrial revolution that changed the face of the world and led to end of feudal systems and religious reign

plus who doesn't like choo choo trains?

Yoica

No electricity w/o steam power. No steam power w/o FIRE!!!  :D

Shiftey

Yeah I dont buy that as a discovery... somebody was just walking in a forest thousands of years ago and stumbled onto a fire.

Let me refrase it for yah then.

Fire; As in, be able to make it with for example stones and then be able to make it at a place and time of choise.

*edit* typo's

I'll go more esoteric and say 'energy'.

As in, we've been using fire for years -- but when we discovered the heat ENERGY could be used to turn raw materials into FOOD and METAL... well, that was pretty damn magical.

You could also put 'language' up there -- but no one knows if we invented that, or if it's gifted to us via our brains (it is probably part of our brain)
Now I run a tech website.

Morbid

btw Bacon should be in this list also  :P

We invented the pig ? i thought that was some other dude :P

You joke, but 'farming' (or 'herd farming') was a serious advance for humankind.

I can't remember what we first farmed. I think it might have been reindeer. Anyway -- domestic/herd animals were important.
