All the stories on the FP are about labor relations and corporate shenanigans. So anyway, do you like Star Trek or Star Wars better? Anybody still ike to read old school sci fi, for example I really love Poul Anderson’s Polesotechnic League stories - the swashbuckling adventures of intersteller trador Nicholas van Rijn and his Solar Spice and Liquors company, David Falkayne, et al. Good old basic space opera.

    I think I’ve made my point. There’s almost no reason someone’s interest in technology would bring them here. It’s mostly political, social and business issues that happen to pertain to tech companies.

      Your post inspired me to share a video about some wacky CES products.

      I think I committed a few cardinal sins because it did not go well. Haha
