Where this sort of thing will happen a lot more often when relatively untrained (driving compared to a pilot) people will be in control.

There's lots of good music being made. But then I listen to indie artists so my experience may not be typical.
The camera hanging from the ceiling like the submitter wants to have kind of takes away from the low tech feeling from scene.
Instead of having a camera taking a picture of a chalkboard every X minutes all the time and uploading the pictures to a website how about replacing the chalkboard with a monitor that shows the menu from the website. Then change the menu on the website to look like a chalkboard. When the chef or manager wants to update the menu they use the computer in the office to change the file and upload the changes to the website. The display in the restaurant would get updated (it could poll the web server every minute or ten) automatically. Plus the menu becomes more accessible to those with disabilities.
You mean terminals in the US. In Canada we've had terminals capable of dealing with NFC enabled credit cards since at least 2007. With MasterCard they called it PayPass.
Try the Kingkiller Chronicles by Patrick Rothfuss. The first two (The Name of the Wind, The Wise Man's Fear) of the trilogy are out now. I enjoyed them much more than GoT.

Wondering who is going to be sending mail after a nuclear war. I think the water bill can wait and Sears isn't going to be doing mail order for a while.
That's okay, we have plans for stopping you from invading. Just leave lots of cases of real beer across the border. You guys won't be able to handle it and we can counterattack.
Or if someone wanted to attack police officers they would probably go to a police station. Might be one or two hanging around there.
I read a lot of books but am lousy at remembering the titles. If asked that question about the books I've read concerning food and agriculture I know that I've read at least four in the past year but can only remember the title of one, Cooked. I can give the summary of three but the title escapes me. One of my favourite authors is Patrick Rothfuss and I can remember he's writing The Kingkiller Chronicle but can't remember the books in it.
I'm not familiar how California does their licenses and insurance. Are they tied together so that when you renew your plates you are also paying for your insurance?
I'm trying to install Solaris on my Vic 20 but transferring the CDs over to cassettes is taking forever!
UPS can't even find the time to knock or ring the doorbell when they deliver a package so I never know when it shows up.
