Those Windows are there to exploit the Bill Gates 5G nanochips from your Covid vaccine. Coming soon to a theater no longer near you: Windows the 13th: Soul Invader.

Apologies, I had a long commute when this came out, and it played incessantly.

SFGate just ran a story on the closure of their retail stores, with some company history, including the obligatory picture of some huckster "executive" wearing a headset with microphone. Allbirds

California needs a Molly Ivins.

Sutter patient here... When I visit the doctor, a nurse first does the usual preliminaries. When the doctor arrives, he asks permission to use the transcription app, then does something on a phone and puts it on a holder for the duration of the session. Within an hour or two after I return home, their online system has the doctor's notes available for review.

At my high school age, our family lived in Virginia. The local shopping center had a state liquor store. It was a grim place, with the interior painted in mental institution green (seen through the windows, because under-21 could not enter). Most people wanting to stock up for a party, instead went to DC, especially to Plain Old Pearson's.

Around 1992, I had a business trip to PA. We wanted some beer to take back to the motel. We had to go to a beer distributor, where I don't believe it was possible to buy any quantity smaller than a case.

"Brainstorm" (1983) Douglas Trumbull dir. : Christopher Walken and Natalie Wood (her last movie). A device records experience and memory from one brain, and allows it to be played back into another. Someone records sex, splices an orgasm loop, and is disabled by overload (like a Niven "wirehead"). A sinister government project is formed to exploit the technology. Someone records a psychotic; someone else finds the tape labelled "Toxic" and plays it anyway.

"It's dead, Jim."

And it tasted like chicken.
