Humanity is hosed because computers are at the point where a dork in his mother's basement can take down an entire nation with their homemade software.

Grondoth posted:This wasn't dorks in their basements, it was professional criminals exploiting poor computer security. Due to crypto, it's a LOT easier to get paid by companies and it not be traced, so ransomware is a much more lucrative form of crime than it was previously. Companies are bad at security because why bother, what could happen, so teams of criminals can get bitcoins pretty easily by shutting down systems and making the companies pony up. Reality is getting way too similar to cyberpunk.

The fact that it's a hummer gives it an even stronger "Death of the American Dream" vibe.

Vince MechMahon posted:Because none of the evidence actually points to this. In times of actual emergency people will band together and help one another in pretty much every real world setting. Mad Max is a fairy tale. Well I just can't see modern republicans not using a major emergency as an excuse to start shooting minorities, not after Trump's riled them up.

Pennywise the Frown posted:They will ALWAYS do this. That doesn't mean that all humans are evil to from their very beginning. That's a loving stupid doomposting thing to say. OK, not everyone is evil but voting republican while the party continues to support Trump is a clear sign that someone is.
