You aren't doing it wrong if no one knows what you are doing.

How Does Your Amazon Order Get Filled? This is so totally awesome!
With tech like this, the future may not hold much hope for people!

In Beijing, because pollution has reached 35 times the safety level, children have been ordered to stay home.
This could mean a delay for anyone who ordered a new iPhone.

Re: The future of tech, and people
For all the stories of government incompetence and inefficiency, it's worth pointing out a private industry example:
Last year Apple bought Beats headphones for $3 Billion.
This year they removed the headphone jack from the iPhone.

The future (past, present?) of tech & people
‘The Matrix’ revisited: Tech billionaires are certain we live in a simulation
Comment:
Good point.
Comment:
If we are indeed in a simulation, then more than likely we are all just bits of code, nothing like the Matrix. And if that is the case, then 'breaking out' would not lead to freedom, but rather the deletion of our code - and us.
Good point.

Given recent events, I wonder if we're living in the most ridiculous of all the simulations. The ones that the scientists running the simulation look at, and go, "Nah, this is too far fetched."

Except they're running the simulation on Windows 10 and it's decided to do updates in the middle of all this so the computer is unresponsive. Don't worry though, we'll have a forced reboot right after Trump becomes president!JTA wrote:Given recent events, I wonder if we're living in the most ridiculous of all the simulations.

When it comes back online they'll delete the last few days of memory, and have us remember that Hillary always won.
You heard it here first.... but they'll probably have to delete this post to hide the evidence.

Water is clear and colorless in small quantities. So when your towel gets wet, why does it get darker? Why does bread left out get harder, while crackers get softer? And it's not unusual to see baby geese and baby ducks. But we're surrounded by pigeons. Why do you NEVER see baby pigeons?
Elvis an honorary DEA agent, while being a drug user. Elvis being dead, but random memories of people sighting him still alive. Memories that his movies were enormously popular. But if you remember one (the simulation making it up on the spot) or watch one (the simulation making up the entire experience on the spot) it's too lame to have been popular.
If you're religious, the Age of Miracles was the creator trying to slap some quick fixes on reality before his assignment was due.
