The San Fernando Valley  Mall where Tom Petty shot some of the Free Fall'n video has been converted into office space for Google.

Just another sign of the downfall of the west.  Google, Facebook (etc) and the Communist Chinese do not have our best interests at heart.  

AI, facial recognition software, microphones in every home.   What a song Tom could write today!!

George Orwell was a genius, look at what we have become.

Good point, but the total control of the population is the goal of all despotic organizations, Google, Facebook, and the crypto commies.

Worse, the sun is going to flare up and destroy Earth.

 

And then, it will go out.

 

But "WAIT THERE'S MORE!" - whole universe is headed for doom.

No. China was, and is, still Communist. Not the same as communist.

Under Communism, workers never actually had rights. Under communism, they do.

How can you not include Apple and Microsoft if you are talking about the goal of world domination?

If we can keep the conversation to items like this, it’ll go much better.

 

Thanks Chris (I think).  The internet is still the internet and people type stuff in there.  Whether you like what they type or not really depends on your worldview, as demonstrated countless times here.

 

Personally, I think middle age anxiety (I'm middle aged) underpins much of the controversy and pearl clutching here.  But that's just the opinion of some random person who types stuff on the internet.  B|

We don't need no education

We don't need no thought control

Yeah, I hear ya. People's opinions are cool with me. We all have them and I don't judge. I don't really care either. I was just nudging the conversation into a direction that could be enjoyable and tangentially audio related :~)

You mean as opposed to Ralf's posting of the Universe Death Clock?  Yeah, I don't know which is more depressing, that or some of the weird cow videos Christopher posts.  :$
