Comment Edjumcate the masses. (Score 1) 286
There was a comment regarding the fact that no one has any real database regarding technology in a non-technical, "hey, we're not evil hax0r bois!" kind of light. Mebbe someone needs to go lookit www.tdyc.com. :)
if we could beat up 'normal' (aka non-geek) people into checking out stuff they can understand (i.e. stuff that can and does aid them in their everyday life) maybe people wouldn't give me funny looks when i ask awkward questions like "have you seen my scrimpers?" or demand "ack! don't touch my dongle!" :P
Catering to the MTV generation isn't something I care about. Teeniebopping BSBers don't particularly concern me.. but when parents start watching "specials" like True Life: I'm a hacker.. how are they going to react in terms of allowing their kids access to technology? And yeah.. some parents really ARE ignorant enough to believe something MTV says. :)
