@fourfourfun has excellent taste. I'm a huge synth/electronic/chiptune head.

I think that is the biggest sign that this system is deeply flawed. So many people have forgotten how to play. What it was like to just enjoy yourself when you were a kid.

When I hear FUD about AI and cybernetics and our robot overlords of the future, I hold on to that book.
