Clint Eastwood movie from the 1980s. "Firefox" was a pretty good thriller where Clint had to invade Russia and steal their latest plane, one with mind reading tech iirc.
I read one good idea for a Google glass-type device. Say you wanted to repair your lawn mower. You'd input the proper program and you'd get a heads up display showing you every step. A little red dot would appear over the first screw, and if you looked around it would locate the proper tool.
But yeah, most of the other stuff is just tech for the sake of tech.
You're assuming rationality. Back in the day, people rushed to be the first to have a color TV, even if there weren't any local stations broadcasting in color. People who never leave the parkway pay for cars that can climb mountains and drive through a flood.
Realistically, I can't think of any reason to get a skullcap unless you're flying high speed jets or have suffered some kind of major trauma that requires it. Docotrs do micro surgery with hand held controllers.
Very niche. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CityTime_payroll_scandal
NYC GOP Mayor Mike Bloomberg's daughter gifted the City a $65 million boondoggle called 'City Time.' Theoretically, every employee was supposed to scan in with a biometric signature. The software didn't account for things like off site work, shift changes, a 24 hour schedule, etc etc. It would have been simpler just to keep the old paper system and imput everything.

What you realize is that he knows that Mike is out there, watching.
He's putting on the performance of his life.
Also, the two 'girl friends' were hllarious.
One of the things Faux News did to build up Trump was to show the unemployment rate when Trump had 100 days in office and compare it with Obama. Obama came in after the 2008 meltdown and had [apx] 10% unemployment at 100 days. Trump came in after eight years of Obama and had [apx] 4%.
No spoilers.
You-know-who deserved better, and Gus and Mike did him dirty.
In the book, the soldiers wear power armor that can fly, and carry atomic bombs on their backs.
I loved the book 'Starship Troopers' and hated the movie because it changed all the good stuff in the book. After a couple of rewatches I began to like the movie for what it was.
Same thing with Season Two. If you compare it to the first, it sucks. If you watch it cold it's a pretty good show.
It's better than the original because Breaking Bad wandered around a lot [remember the shoplifting arc that never developed]
This one was laser focused from the start.
Because Pi has everyone's Social Security number...
