You don't ask people that kind of questions on the internet. They will lie.

I don't know you either but i know quite exactly how you look like.

In return i will say my real name. Just to be fair. I'm Silch.

I'm not a double account.


Okay, I have no reason to doubt that, I suppose.

He's Swiss, so that makes sense.

Of course we're still needed Roger, well at least for the moment. Without people around who is going to buy the latest gadgets, or watch the latest summer blockbuster. Computers are way too smart to do that.

My friend asked me the other day, if there was any technology that really changed our lives. And I told him, of course there is. Cell phones mean we now don't have to think ahead of time, we just change our plans whenever the fuck we want and tell the relevant people about them. Cells also allow us to interrupt whoever we want, to tell them some inane detail that probably could have waited.

The internet has changed our lives too, I can now find information on any topic, no matter how unimportant it is. I can also find people as fucked up as I am and talk to them all over the world. Plus, how else would I be able to find out what a fourteen year old kid thinks about copyright laws?

But really, has technology really changed us that much. Sure we have become more like jerks, and technology has made it easier to be a jerk. But maybe we were already happening that way. We invented the internet so it would be easier to piss other people off and fill our depraved fantasies. We invented cell phones so we had more ways of interrupting people, and ignoring people face to face.

Sure technology has some amazing applications and potential, but people are idiots.
It's not trolling, it's just satire.

Ah, that's what I was missing.  Oh, well, the Free Market™ will provide the solution.

I had an old man tell me once what was involved in making a buggy whip, it took days the way he did it.
I guess it's like art: unnecessary, and if you want to be compensated for the time you put into it, you'd better have a Pretty Big Name.
Why bother, people will find crappy prints to hang over the couch at WalMart and cheap S&M stuff online.
