If the flying car ever becomes a big success, I predict that its primary selling point will eventually become that it can drive on roads, and its flying capability will be deprecated.
Watch how the drone fracas unfolds. TPTB may not be on about letting everyone have a flying machine.
I'm old enough to remember when Java was supposed to be "write once, run everywhere", and all that downloadable code was supposed to be sandboxed so the security hassles were fixed. Maybe I'm a little fuzzy here, but all that was supposed to arrive on a pony.
I'll can go about halfway there. I don't mind admitting that there is substantial, even 80% overlap amongst religions. If a faith hasn't got some fragmentary or preliminary shard of truth, it won't be sustained.
But that other 20% is key, and I am here to tell you that Christianity is more gooder.
Because it takes the feel good form of: "We're all just worshipping the same God, who's just this big cosmic softie and will casually ignore all our hedonism after the fact."
It's a swell sales pitch, until you RTFM and realize that it's a Lie From The Pit.

Oh, just Neptune the point-haired boss out.
My account name used to be smitty_one_each. They really made the whole OpenID implementation fun. For "can't log in for two weeks" values of "fun".

Let's keep things Plutonic.

That's called "going long".
The stress and depression on display in "Getting the Brush", for example, is hilarious.
That's a Tuesday-only gig.

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
