lilliput effect

Refers to the constant aging of computers and smart phones. The Phone or Computer starts off as a Giant...and one by one apps and new programs and new demands are placed upon it. Soon that former "Technological Giant" is tied to the ground and nearly useless as if by hundreds of busy little Lilliputian apps and demands threading it into submission.

My i-phone seemed so powerful 2 years ago. Now with so many apps, photos and new demands put upon it it seems like those Lilliputian's that were able to tie down the Giant Gulliver with thousands of tiny threads... and so the Lilliput effect can reach even to our cell phones and computers.

Humanity: Builds weapons of mutant genocide
Magneto: I don’t like that

Humanity: What a monster!?!?

Cause and effect

I also don't have to accept your framing of the situation as a matter of fault vs blame and I don't have to let you control my fucking mind. If you do not pay for my work in accordance with my 5th amendment rights and you don't give my right not to associate with people who are actively stalking and harassing me then I'm going to revoke your daughter's right to life. Give me MY rights and do it now or I will take your kids.

Hym "It's not a matter of fault, it's a matter of cause and effect. And I've proven the targeted harassment is both real and happening to me and I'm not going to let you using me as a test case so you can claim that doing this doesn't get your kids murdered. But YOU will let a butthole molested mental retard uses YOU as a sentient pocket-pussy so HE can claim he's better than me. So there's that. I don't have to let you do thus and get away with it."
