📢 Forum Update -  Hello everyone! I've made an improvement to the forum that should make following active discussions much easier. Beginning today, forum topics will display the most recent replies first (while keeping the original topic post at the top), so you no longer have to navigate through multiple pages to find the latest conversation. This change also helps improve the browsing experience in long-running discussions with many pages of replies. If you notice anything that doesn't seem to be working correctly or have any feedback, please let me know. — Richard G.

:mdrmdr:    yes, its an old clip from 1999 movie Revelation 2: Apocalypse with the lovely … Carol Alt.   The irony is even though the computers are dated … Carol Alt’s “day of wonder goggles” look to be more high tech and easier to wear  vs. Mark Zuckerberg’s   B-)

I thought it odd that they have a VR headset right next to two old CRT monitors. LOL :mdrmdr:

What struck me about this video is that the same sin Eve fell for is the same sin that we struggle with today.....knowledge. If you think about it, what is gossip, something we've all indulged in at one time or another? Forbidden knowledge. Society hails people for their knowledge, people with high IQ's, people with multiple degrees, doctors, professors, etc. The people who flunked out of Jeopardy in the first round aren't the ones we remember but the ones with the most knowledge. Pride and knowledge seem to go hand in hand. The advancements in society on every level are epic and yet the same sin from the very beginning is the same sin that is bringing the world crashing down.....knowledge. The tech billionaires are competing to see who can develop the first human to machine interface. Elon Musk tells of how it will empower people to great heights once they've connected to the internet and the vast troves of knowledge. I wonder if/how this will be connected with the MOTB? Trade your soul for all the worlds knowledge will be pretty much impossible for a lot of people to resist.
