@mitch back in the day I think we all felt that it was something about applying photo copies to humans. It likely fell away when we realised that a copy of a jpeg was identical to the original. And then we realised that they weren’t. And then we discovered how much none of us knew about what copies were actually doing - like being a source of phishing and ransom ware - and that you have to have your wits about you …

And then suddenly ‘digital twins’ are good?

Do we learn nothing?

It’s like ‘Artificial Intelligence’❓When did ‘Artificial’ become a good thing? (🖇️ Me in 2019)

@hjalm … to not be cool is cool

@lmika have you tried making any changes to the OPML?

@JohnPhilpin I just read that there is a second series of Sugar on its way.

@MitchWagner If we all give up - nothing will change. The Butterfly Effect is alive and well.

@technogeek75 hah .. given we’re in the same boat it’s surprising we haven’t met.

@lmika People still cross diagonally mind you .. it’s just that the roads don’t seem to be marked.

@lmika Sadly these days there are barely enough people in Auckland CBD to warrant a scramble .. much less have them everywhere.

@hjalm You are not alone. Jax regularly reminds me how often my ‘cultural references’ need to be updated to maintain my relevancy. Honey … I tell her … I was never ‘culturally relevant’ .. with my inner voice asking if ‘culturally’ is redundant.
