Don't look.
(But I know you are going to anyways.)

[LMNO]

I just want to know who thought any of this would be a good idea.

[Triple Zero]

the description of that terminal room with one girl in it is SO familiar ..

though you can't really blame em for looking, already after working a few days 9-17 in such a 99% male environment, anything that's got breasts and a female figure is going to draw my attention as well, whether i'm frustrated or not.

anyway you're right about the nerds and the revolution, it aint happening. at least, not like that. but from your writing i gather a feeling of "it used to be better", is that so? cause i don't really think so.
sure there are probably more nerds, as computers become more accessible and Computer Science is becoming a bigger study direction (hey it exists only since about 60 years or so). but there are still hackers and they still are (have to be!) outside-the-box thinkers.

it's a bit like that law of stupidity, the percentage of stupid people/sheep/cabbages is always the same, no matter how you cut up your population (that this is a statistical impossibility is of course the sad, sad cynical point) and this number is always higher than you expect.

Obviously the cosplayers and the grownups who still play house (this time with whips and chains).

I'm not really pointing any fingers at anyone here, I'm just describing this as I see it and there is no more point to this than what the individual person sees and reads. I'm strictly observing this new enviroment and it's been quite some time since I was a fan of revolutions like this. Images and metaphors.

that's okay, i was just making discussion, you know partly agreeing and disagreeing, you know, the usual. but if you just want to write a piece for read-only, that's fine as well.

it was a good read, for sure.

ya

I kind of like the one sepia posted today slightly better... thats just personal taste

No text is really read-only so my post was a bit.. off or inaccurate. These are just pure streams of consciousness with no editing or work other than the typing and they haven't really been tuned. Need to rip more from authors so I'll know how to explain this in the future. And I'm definitively a part of the crowd sitting there.

feckit, i dunno, thanks for kind words.

  That's what came to my mind, too, OB.

Wow, there's a bit of a generation gap for me in that one, but I get your meaning nonetheless.  (I'm 33, but I was never a technerd in ANY sense of the meaning)

I hope you find that "chick."
