The year is 2050 and your dingy old toaster has finally given up it's last crumbs. You hop onto Amazon in hopes of finding a suitable replacement as there's no longer any box stores you can travel to. Dumb appliances have been phased out and newer internet connected appliances have taken over. It's better for the consumer they claim.

Not wanting an overtly fancy contraption you pick a no frills unit that includes a touch screen along the side. A few hours later it arrives. Setting it up was almost as easy as your old one. Plug it in, enter your wi-fi password, and a credit card to start your free pro trial of the monthly subscription service that tweets at you when the toast is done. It says you can cancel at anytime but it requires a 5 day waiting period. It also requires access to your contacts.

Tired and just wanting your toast you agree. You insert two slices of white bread and press the big red GO button on the touch screen. An electrical motor whines from inside the toaster at it begins to retract the toast into itself. There's a few seconds of silence as the toaster slowly heat ups. While awkwardly standing there you notice the touch screen flickers and begins to display a buffering icon. An ad for I Can't Believe it's Not Butter begins to play. To make matters worse you can't even ignore it by looking away due to a small tinny sounding speaker playing the company's jingle.

This is your new morning routine.

Welcome to the future.

сегодня год, как арестовали фургала

Хореограф Woo-Ping Yuen не хотел работать над «Матрицей», поэтому запрашивал непомерную зарплату и ставил слишком долгие сроки, чтобы от его услуг отказались. Но братья Вачовски выполнили все просьбы. И тогда он поставил невыполнимое условие об их смене пола.

Сейчас сёстры Вачовски работают над 4-й частью «Матрицы»

ДА КТО ТАКОЙ ЭТОТ ВАШ ГЛОБАЛ УОРМИНГ?

Существует ли глобальное потепление на самом деле? Тут прям недавно ООН дропнул доклад, который раскидывает по фактам, что происходит с нашей планетой. Небольшой такой докладик на 4 тысячи страниц. Но… вы же знаете, что на канале MyGap любую тягомотину приготовят вкусно и интересно. Приятного аппетита, Гэпники!
