meanderings of thoughts
Sep. 15th, 2009 08:45 pm- I want an icon of a fruit and the words let me praise men for eating the apple *shrugs* Would that even fit?
- The kitten is not, in fact, feral. He has clearly been handled before and is just a sweetie. Mom took him to the vet this morning; he has worms and fleas, and is underweight, but otherwise healthy.
- Edgar Allen Poe was nucking futs.
- I have fifteen days to finish some part of the
- I want to rewatch the Priestly/Jen scenes of Ten Inch Hero and write fic.
- You know what I wish sometimes? That I loved math as much as my mom and little sister. I think it might be easier if I just clicked with numbers the way I do with words.
- Could Micah Sanders turn off the internet?

Keeping it off would be even harder, given all the failsafes and backup systems at each node, as well as people trying to get things back online.
Alternatively, he could channel a shitload of data into the net (upload his consciousness, send random thoughts and memories to everyone on the planet? Not sure on that option) and make it unusable that way. Also, a problem that would require turning of the internet would be apocalyptically huge. Given how much of the world's commercial, military and personal communication is now handled by the 'net, shutting it down would cause unimaginable mayhem.
Interesting thought-problem, again. :-)
