‘Older programs were all about what you need: you can do this, that, whatever you want, just let me know.
But recently (a decade, more or less), this relationship has subtly changed. Newer programs (which are called apps now, yes, I know) started to want things from you.’
@futzle Supposedly she didn't throw the progenitor's tech into the black hole, but just the portal leading there, wherever "there" is. There may be other entrances.
(agreed on everything else; I was particularly annoyed at that scene on the bridge with the "ghost" characters at the end; at least give them lines!)
YESTERDAY
Yesterday,
All those backups seemed a waste of pay.
Now my database has gone away.
Oh I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly,
There's not half the files there used to be,
And there's a milestone
hanging over me
The system crashed so suddenly.
I pushed something wrong
What it was I could not say.
Now all my data's gone
and I long for yesterday-ay-ay-ay.
Yesterday,
The need for back-ups seemed so far away.
I knew my data was all here to stay,
Now I believe in yesterday.
