Anyone remember the portrayal of US Fed programmers in Snow Crash? So scary it must be true!
...but that doesn't make you wrong.
Ever seen this? It was spammed to quite a few people around August 21, 2001. Sorry, I didn't think to save the headers - but I did look at them and the message seemed to originate from Bahrain.
analog version of Photoshop? Oh, yes, back in the day we called it

So on the way to and from work I count the number of people on cell phones talking or texting. It's really SCARY!
Today I saw this guy - while driving - pull out his iPad. One hand to hold the iPad, one hand to tap and pinch. He was driving with his elbow.
I quickly - but safely - changed lanes to get the hell away from him. I hope the person he will soon rear-end will be OK and is in need of a new car.
Wise question. Simple answer. 3rd party data collection is cheaper for the carriers.

What gets me is we had this exact same conversation in 1956, 1968, 1977, 1984, 1989, 1995, 2002. and 2009.
The Hugh Pickens change, but the story remains the same.
Resign? Ha! Send the idjit back to school!
Suddenly I'm all for mandatory skills testing... for school board members!

Waste?
If you have been a real Star Trek fan then there have been significant changes in your brain that allow you to better understand social justice, equality, currency-less societal structures, diplomacy, human-alien sexual congress, and the advisability of wearing red apparel.

A predilection for virtual pitchforks and torches over real ones, for starters. Flaming on forums is all fun and games, but tossing a living marketing exec in a real fire will make you feel alive and in control for the first time in your life. I cannot recommend it highly enough!
