Don't text while you are driving. What the fuck?

Never heard of that, but I'll look into it. The one I read was a short story in Analog, maybe 15 years ago

I read a cool short story a few years ago that really embraced that quote. It started out as a fantasy story with wizards doing magic. It then turns out that magic is actually old nano machines or something, but society has forgotten all about the science behind them.

I had an s3 virge card. Amazingly bad, it basically was no faster than cpu rendering, but looked a bit better. I spent so much time trying to trick games into running on it.

Probably not. Since the point of money is to be able to buy more and better things, there will always be a desire to have more money, even if nobody else cares how much you have.

Maybe billionaires just have faster heart rates

I removed that sentence from my comment, but I didn't think it was a spoiler. How is his name relevant? I knew that ahead of time and didn't think it spoiled anything for me.

Oh man, I finished that series last year. Definitely some incredible parts, but it also drags a bit at the end. It finished with like 2000 pages of matching through a desert which was rough, but by that point you've read enough that you can't stop.

Younger audience is a crazy critique though, I can't say I ever though that.

Do you know what Strava is? It's for tracking your times and routes, your level of expertise is irrelevant.

Android is atrocious with this. Windows can be pretty annoying as well, saving things but you have no idea where it is.
