Little virgin blood and bat dung, that thing's hopping around eating people.
And now I have a phone capable of taking photos too large to be stored on that drive. Crazy how quickly technology can progress.

70 years is a long loooooooooooooooooong time for "technology"
Only recently! For the past 10,000 years a 70-year span would not see a single significant change.
(If I mix this up, someone correct me.)
I think it was at Olduvai, or somewhere in the Great Rift Valley, that hominids spent 600,000 years hammering out the same exact stone tools.
that's why i put "technology" in quotation marks.
It is nowadays, and it is in RF and digital electronics, but that's far from universal.
I mean, yeah, that's what he was getting at. How 70 years seems like a long time in the context of modern technology despite being very short in the sense of human history.
