Asleep?
Oh fuck you guys don't know anything? S3K? The Wire? Hivemind?
Well I'll explain while I'm smoking.
Eleven years ago there was this big MIT project going on. They wanted to create the ultimate human/computer interface. Dunno the specifics, but it's supposed to read your mind and do whatever it is you want it to do.
Sounds great doesn't it? For a while it was. Pretty soon there was a Wire terminal on every city block.
Things changed after the S3K corporation bought the system. They did something to it, wired em up to each other direct or something, and it got outta hand. Started spreading out to other systems, banks, traffic control, military networks, everywhere.
That pretty much paralyzed every government on the planet, but the thing is everything kept on working. There was no big collapse or anything, things just never stopped rolling. I don't really understand it, but there was a documentary about it a few years back. Apparently, whenever there's a big decision to be made the Wire terminals read the general consensus on a random poll directly from the users and act on it. A hive mind is what they call it. In a way, it's the ultimate form of democracy.
Anyways, I'm out of a cigarette. Anything else you need before I get back in?
Oh yeah, that tower you see there, that's the local Wire control node. S3K property.
