That's a bit too "Black Mirror" for my tastes.

But yeah.

This is what I like about being an older guy. I could give two shits about who knows what I spank it to these days.

So, how long until it's discovered that SureSense has an administrative back door password that is the same on every machine?

You sound like a "radical"

We've got our eyes on you.

Hell, my friends and I used to goof around in the airport when we were bored. We'd even walk down the airport jetways late at night...and sometimes there would be a plane sitting there, open and completely empty.

My Radio Shack Color Computer had a 300 baud modem. Enough to get into all sorts of text arguments that I had no right to be in on the BBSs.

I remember being told that Computers were a dead-end career in the early 80's.

Back in the 90's I worked in IT for the state govt. I found out in my first month that I had more access to the data systems than the Director or our agency.

Reminds me of the punk in a planning meeting a few years back. Us old timers were talking about packet sizes and network congestion preventing our test results from getting to the servers in a timely manner.

He ain't here no more.
