re that dough Adams thing: how are they all so media illiterate? Like I'm a massive dork, I speak to machines more than other humans, I love to tinker, I frequently escape into fiction.

So obviously because I have a fucking brain in my head I look into who writes the stories I enjoy, why, what is and is not represented etc with the same sort of delight I examine a door handle or a speaker with.

How are these people, who's whole fucking life is owning the means of manufacture of machines, who all say they're inspired by scifi so... uninterested in the SciFi they say is awesome?

Don’t try to rationalise it, it’s CEO speak :

He’s not making a comparison to Hitchhikers, he’s trying to attract attention.

There I go again, assuming when people speak it has meaning rather than just being distracting sounds that come out of a hole in their face.

That’s you making the mistake of applying good faith
