I can't believe no one seems to be talking about this. How is this not a huge leap in tech? It seems like this could redefine how we store data.durdencommatyler wrote:Can you imagine?LoathedVermin72 wrote:Thinking about the implications of this is really tripping me out.

Absolutely. But I need to read more about it. I really can't wrap my head around what they're doing, what it means, how to retrieve it, etc.LoathedVermin72 wrote:I can't believe no one seems to be talking about this.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Yeah, it's an intriguing setup, despite Brie Larson's character sounding like a walking cliche. Just need to see some footage to get a sense of what the director is doing visually. Jurassic World has made me cagey.tragabigzanda wrote:Ha, watching all those no-name actors so clearly excited for a couple seconds of MTV screen time makes me feel gross. Movie could be really fun, though.
