So we live in this technology era. Everything is run by computers. And all computers have stats, basically numbers, and the greater the numbers the better the computer. For example, i3, i5, i7 processors, i7 being better… 8GB ram, 16GB ram, 32GB ram, bigger better… How about download speed? That progress bar for your download is progressing at 1MB/sec? 3MB/sec? 5MB/sec?
What if the numbers meant nothing at all? What if the hardware of your computer just slows down by function over time? For example a new computer would not be faster, but it would just make the loading bars complete faster. making you think it is faster, but in reality, it’s just wait time being reduced and this wait time will increase as you computer gets older?
What if time is controlled by machines? Do you have a physical copy of a calendar where you take notes of the current day? No one does that anymore… We all check our e-calendar in the morning, look our tasks, birthday reminders, etc. What if a bug in the clock system would make us skip a day? who would notice? Would anyone notice? What if we sleep during that time? What if there is extra time or less time in a day because of timing malfunctions in all systems? Who would notice really?
