@stux Just because other people have worse problems doesn't mean your problems aren't problems.And if your problems are about inequality and wealth distribution, remember that there's people who want you to knuckle under and keep quiet about it until they can find a way to get you and everyone else into debt slavery too.

@lauren We're all so poorly socialized (particularly siloed by age through school cohorts and career progress) these days it's easy to forget that having friends of different ages has been totally normal historically. Most likely Marty sought out Doc because it was known in the neighborhood he had that monster sound system from the beginning of the first movie, and they hit it off.

@futurebird IMO, unless we're getting to really unconventional architectures and definitions:Yes: Processor - going to call this obvious, inviting the relevant jokesClock - I don't think this is reasonably separable from the processor-unit. I wouldn't even count it separately. No:Memory - at least some kind of processor registers necessary, but you can definitely build stream-processing computers rather than a proper main memory. UI - can be external, as in a mainframe

@brewsterkahle I haven't found taxis to be more expensive, and I pay by card so the app thing isn't a big deal since I'm not ordering it. This just seems like taxis + venmo.
