Listener comments!
	6:02pm Stepchild: This shirt!!!!!
	6:05pm melinda: Hi Mark and Kim!
	6:07pm common: yep!
	🤖 6:08pm Webhamster Henry: There are three streams that have at least some live programming, and the UbuWeb and Boredcast streams which are shuffle-mode streams.
	6:09pm βrian: The Boredcast stream has saved me, from time to time.
	🤖 6:09pm Webhamster Henry: A tinfoil hat would be a great Marathon Premium!
	6:11pm βrian: There will have to be a 20% tariff on the aluminum for that hat.
	🤖 6:11pm Webhamster Henry: The Jolly Roger project is a miracle of performance art!
	6:13pm Dave in Vermont: Can you talk about how you think the end of net neutrality will effect WFMU. I am guessing you may already have but I missed it.
	🤖 6:14pm Webhamster Henry: Sharon the Google Specialist calls me every week, she is so concerned with my SEO issues.
	🤖 6:15pm Bas NL: Oh yes please, keep talking!!
	6:18pm Rich in Washington: For some reason, that reminded me of the infamous Kathy McGinty tapes. Totally not FCC friendly.
	6:19pm Michael 98145: ... indeed, "what about the rest of us?"
	🤖 6:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Dave - The 11/27 program had some discussion on that: www.wfmu.org...
	6:20pm βrian: I want to hear Kimzilla respond to Mark like the robot. That could be fun. Probably not great for a fund drive, though ...
	6:22pm listener james from westwood: Ever since I started listening to Techtonic, I've seen my Twitter feed through a more skeptical eye, both stories about tech promise and intrusiveness, and my Twitter experience itself. I'm sure Mark is sick of my cc'ing him on retweets of various stories of, say, Facebook's multi-tentacular creepiness!
	6:23pm listener james from westwood: @Rich, that's exactly what the Jolly Roger bot reminds me of!
	6:23pm βrian: What, are those USB-B spermatozoa?
	6:23pm Michael 98145: great shirt - wfmu.org...
	6:24pm βrian: What is the Twisted Pair pledge level?
	6:25pm Dave in Vermont: Thanks, Ken. Any new info on oldest DJ?
	6:25pm Carmichael: Lotta great FMU swag coming out of Zone 5.
	6:29pm northguineahills: David in Leipzig does Continental Subway on Give the Drummer Some stream.
	6:30pm melinda: I'm gettin the shirt!
	🤖 6:31pm Bas NL: Yeah!!!
	6:33pm Jeff Moore: "Hackers" is the most important book Mr. Levy has written, I believe. It gets you into the culture of real computer geeks (as distinct from the kiddies-come-later).
	🤖 6:37pm Ken From Hyde Park: OK...just ran the S4L menus. Electrons should be blipping your way soon. The Techtonic Tee was one of my choices.
	6:41pm listener james from westwood: Mark, you do a fantastic job hosting this show. It's always a packed hour and your range of guests indeed spans wonder and terror at the promise of tech. And it's well worth some tech-money karma. Or as I'd put it, weregild (en.wikipedia.org...).
	6:41pm Michele: And if you have a real job check if your company does matching donations!
	6:42pm listener james from westwood: Facebook et al. are facing an end-of-"The Godfather" reckoning for their role in election 2016. The least they can do is help immunize folks to the lure of tech's dark side via funding this show.
	6:42pm medson: Good comment Michele. : ) I was going to add that
	6:43pm listener james from westwood: Wooo-hooooo!!!
	6:43pm Michele: Hi Medson!
	6:43pm Jeff Moore: Karma Kredits!
	6:44pm medson: Corp Matching is a wonderful thing
	6:45pm Anthony in North Florida: Hi Michele
	🤖 6:46pm Ken From Hyde Park: 800-989-9368
	6:47pm Jeff Moore: Or if you prefer, upyours@wfmu.org
	6:47pm chris: i didn't call out techtonic specifically in my S4L pledge, but i don't kid myself that there's anywhere else we could hear this excellent show. keep up the great work, Mark!
	6:49pm queems: oh man my company matches but it might only be for charity? i have to check that out
	6:51pm listener james from westwood: WFMU is a 501(c)(3) charity; it totally qualifies!
	6:51pm βrian: Speaking of kiddies-come-later, has there been any discussion on Techtonic about trends in coding & design that reflect fashion more than sense? I'm always struck by how much "best practices" are really just fashion statements that require denigrating practices that made new practices possible. It's as if digital technologies really never existed until, say, about 18 months ago.
	6:51pm queems: OH BOY
	6:52pm herb.nyc: My pledge gets matched by a corporation- wfmu is a non profit and that's enough for the corporation.
	6:53pm Anthony in North Florida: WFMU qualifies as a 501c3 charity: 13-3649722 Auricle Communications Jersey City NJ United States
	6:55pm βrian: Give Matt some steamed broccoli.
	🤖 6:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Matching grants info page: www.wfmu.org... If one's company asks how much the employee has given to WFMU, how would he/she respond? I've got a bunch of emails from my various pledges. Would we email Joe to have him send an email that gives the total for the calendar year?
	6:55pm Robert from Woodbridge: There are few shows out there like Techtonic. I'm so proud to support it and WFMU.
	6:56pm medson: @queems my company matches. It’s great.
	6:57pm queems: i'm looking into it right now
	6:57pm herb.nyc: Speaking of Bob raining, it was suggested that he cohost with Professor dumb dumb tomorrow at midnight. Voice to text was used. Of course I meant Bob Brennan
	🤖 6:59pm Bas NL: Yea!!!!
	6:59pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, Kim and Mark!!
	6:59pm northguineahills: Thanks Mark and Kim! Bas is cleaning out this marathon! Congrats!
	6:59pm chris: :) Thanks, Mark and Kimzilla!
	6:59pm melinda: Thanks K and M!
	🤖 6:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: I hope there exists a boat large enough to tote all Bas' pledges here and all his winnings back to him.
	7:00pm ?: Bas is a pledging hero!
	🤖 7:01pm Bas NL: Thanks Mark & Kim! And thanks you all!

Mon. Nov 4th, 6pm - 7pm: Dystopia update (More info...)
Chatbots are now running rampant - appearing in new-model cars - as we're being told to "be nice to chatbots." Stores are using "digital price tags," which rely on surveillance to set the price to the company's liking. Meantime, Google's AI is giving wrong answers, in some cases, almost half the time. All these and more in Mark's dystopia update.
