Who would have thought that the switch between the analog way of doing business with pen/paper/phone/filing cabinets would be the way cheaper and less intrusive method of doing business when compared to ideological tech. The local drug store who sold me my receipt book never once tried to persuade me to get a monthly subscription for anything, ever. I’ve come to the firm conclusion that I can easily go back to waiting 6-8 weeks for delivery.

I don’t trust any tech company. Most are complete fuck ups.
So Star Trek (and Battlestar Galactica) having people carrying padds around made sense as they didn’t depend on the cloud?
Galactica (2004) didn’t even have networked computers, except that one time they did.
