228. Garage Biotech

228. Garage Biotech

First, for my young and impressionable readers, a couple of points: the correct language is “Greg and I,” never go with older boys who claim to have a creature in their garage (it won’t end well, whether they have a creature or not), and I don’t hate cats (I have a cat). All these things were attempted for the sake of humor – don’t try this at home.

As for the DIY Garage Biotech, this is already starting to sound like old news. Just a matter of time before some homebrew genetic mutations are released to walk, crawl, and/or slither among us. Exciting times!

227. Virus in Virus Protection’s Clothing

While I’m sure Google wouldn’t do anything evil, there have been less scrupulous companies that have scammed users by selling services to “help” them. Ignorance is not necessarily bliss and a healthy dose of paranoia goes a long way when protecting your data. Be careful out there surfing those interweb highways.

226. Buying Indulgences

I equate the idea of buying carbon credits with buying indulgences. This isn’t to say that I’m opposed to “green” energy – I’m definitely in favor of improved design and clean energy – I just find the concept of selling carbon credits to be shady at best.

225. IT Guys Smell

  • LunaTECH News

Turns out it’s not always the smelly tech guys causing that funky odor. And just for the record, as a tech guy, I want it known that not all of us have hygiene issues. However, it only takes one to ruin it for the rest of us. If your mom never taught you how to wash, get a book or look it up online, and wash yourself. Scrub everywhere, use soap. B.O. shouldn’t be a qualification for working with technology.

223. Prehistoric Footsteps

What if even earlier footsteps were found? That could really screw up the timeline.

221. Farming Simulation

Word has it that there are more online farmers than real farmers, with lots of people engaged in these online simulations running virtual businesses. It begs the question over what’s so much more engaging about solving virtual problems, when there are undoubtedly similar real world problems that demand attention. I’m sure I could figure it out, but my virtual cow needs milking…

220. The Agony of Defeat

220. The Agony of Defeat

Where once upon a time only a relatively small number of people had the potential of having their blunders immortalized, these days everyone has a chance of their gaffs being shared with the world. There are certainly serious concerns to be had with regard to personal information, but the capturing of an embarassing moment or social faux pas for all eternity might be a weightier issue – especially when it comes to self esteem. The internet may never forget.
