That you even found that casts doubt on your interests Mark.

It was quoted in a newspaper article!

I try to maintain half a million lines of C++, while developing new code in C# 
(I don't generally maintain a web site about it though, it's a more lonely activity than that ...)

I think it is a reference page for enthusiasts and model makers, not so weird. I have seen much, much weirder than that.

I would guess it's mostly for model railroaders doing modern layouts.

This reminds me of the best bumper sticker I've ever seen. It was in a convention parking lot (think it was MidSouthCon) and said "I am Lysdexic of Borg. Prepare to be asslaminated."

Everyone should opt out. And probably quit.

That would be very smart. Reality will be that the tyical yes-men will not let the opportunity to crawl into someones 'assimilator'. Others will keep their mouth shut out of fear and play along. Most of those who wanted to opt out will be persuaded bribed with a small gift. Wanna have a new smartphone?
And those that actually are smart enough not to play along will only lose. But yes, I prefer to live without a job before I would let myself be tagged like a dog.

Well, dogs should opt out too.

In a perfect world, yeah. But humans gotta learn the hard way. Eventually, they'll come to understand this is tantamount to modern day slavery, but I digress.

Actually, someone should create a minicapacitor that charges off the body somehow, hack the supply chain to those 'rice' implants, and have those installed instead! Then, every 25 minutes, or however long it takes to charge up, the suckers can be 'reminded' that they were stupid enough to sign up for such a venture!

That moment in the sci-fi thriller where the bad guy removes the body part of an employee to gain access to a secure area just got a little closer.

It's been going on for years. You all carry around a personal tracking device that posts where you are and what you are doing every day and who you are with including pictures and videos. The marketing gurus call it a "smart phone" and y'all fell for it long ago.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
