    Yep. Always puts me in mind of David Bowie's 'Saviour Machine. And to think it was written in the 70s

    President Joe once had a dream
    The world held his hand, gave their pledge
    So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
    They called it the Prayer, its answer was law
    Its logic stopped war, gave them food
    How they adored till it cried in its boredom
    Please don't believe in me, please disagree with me
    Life is too easy, a plague seems quite feasible now
    Or maybe a war, or I may kill you all
    Don't let me stay, don't let me stay
    My logic says burn so send me away
    Your minds are too green, I despise all I've seen
    You can't stake your lives on a Saviour Machine

    80 billion instructions a second and still that little blue circle revolves round and round and round. This is one of my favourite things to yell at my workstation in the office as the software greys out and reports it is not responding. Billions of f#*&ing cycles per second and I'm sat here like a f#*&ing pillock. I don't let the stress get to me. nznznnznznzn...
