true, the machines wouldn't invent a wireless adapter for the humans because they imagined the humans would never leave their pods, but you'd think that along with their sweet flying machines and their mechs and underground city and all they could scrounge up a lil wireless adapter

Also reminder that the original script has the humans being used as a neural supercomputer cluster, not a power source, but they felt that the average American wouldn't understand that concept

a fair assumption. the average redditor (representative of the top 90th percentile of american intelligence) is still struggling to understand the intricacies of inception

Contrary to popular myth, though the Nokia 7110 does feature a spring-loaded cover concealing the keypad, this is not the model featured in the first Matrix movie, which is the Nokia 8110 (made 3 years prior), which was adapted with a spring mechanism to feature in the 1999 film.[5][6]

pretty hosed up that the older model has the bigger number.

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

it's a movie prop, OP

neo is a fictional character and there is no real interface, in fact, the entire story is untrue

quote:

The increase in popularity of Japanese beef in the United States has led to the creation of "Kobe-style" beef, taken from domestically raised wagyu crossbred with Angus cattle, to meet the demand. Farms in the U.S. and Britain have attempted to replicate the Kobe traditions.US meat producers claim any differences between their less expensive "Kobe-style" beef and true Kobe beef are largely cosmetic.

it depends how much you care about the ends or the means; it's the same as honey or olive oil

they don't actually come from bees or olives (top two counterfeit items by volume) but if you can't tell the difference would you get mad?
