As I get older I'm finding that having multiple personalities and memory lose has allowed me to meet new and interesting people also.
They call me different but the truth is they're all the same!

It must be like playing Oblivion. You eventually are the champion of the arena, archmage of the academy, boss of the warriors guild. And the thieves guild, the Dark Brotherhood and..
And somehow this guy still finds time to sroll through the gates of Oblivion and spank the Daedra for what they did.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Do the Thieves Guild first: serious sneak - and the Grey Fox cowl - really helps with the Dark Brotherhood questline. Kill anyone you want in front of the guards wearing it, take it off and they stop hunting you. It's also possible to keep the Boots of Springheel Jak, which helps a lot as well.

And you always have someone intelligent to talk to.

Great point! Except ultimately my life will be reduced to binge watching all my favorite Netflix and Amazon shows!

You know that saying with the gift horse? You have won the lottery. Don't question it. Enjoy it.

It's even worse when you find an article or tip that does what you wanted, go to leave a comment and ... find you wrote it ... 
Happened to me a couple of times now.

That's even better. You get to hunt down the guy who stole your identity and publishes stuff in your name every day. Strangely enough, the hamsters seem to be less enthusiastic about it.

Identity theft seems to be a real problem around here. Remember what the hamsters said when you reported your discovery?
"Oh no, here we go again!"

Are you sure that wasn't a bowl of petunias pretending to be the hamsters?

It's spreading. Now I can't remember anything at all, hamsters or not.

I worked for a company and wrote a utility function. I had a problem and called the help desk to find out who could best help me. After a short delay, they gave me my name and phone number! I was no help to me at all!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Yup, that's happened to me a couple times too!

You've written so many articles I'm surprised you haven't yet commented on an article only to later realize it was one of your own... 
[Edit]
Ok, someone beat me to it...that'll teach me to reply to a message before going through the entire thread...

The daily news had a story from gartner about technology trends,
one of the top 10 items was "Human Augmentation"
It reckons this is using technology to help humans
but:
- from the title (my initial guess before reading the description)
- but even more-so from real life
I really think gartner has that bass-ackwards.
OIOW: hands up anyone else finds themselves an extention a slave to technology

Well, I make my living using technology.
All my hobbies involve technology (although I guess I could go out for a walk or read a book).
Of course when I finish that book I need technology to buy a new one (which was also created using technology).
The technology I need was created using different technologies.
Technology keeps my food and drinks cold or frozen and it's technology that helps me prepare it.
Winter is coming and even though it's still 20+ C inside the house I do sometimes have the heater on on a cold day which is, you guessed it, more technology.
I could go on for a while, but you get the idea.
It's probably not what you (or Gartner) meant, but I'm going to put both my hands and feet up into the air

I suspect (hope even) that you don't go for a walk without clothes; so you're you're probably even more dependent on technology than you realise!

We are all slaves to it, whether we use it directly or not.

We all surrounded with technology...
The question is what you are doing when that technology stops working?
Where is your breaking point?
If a broken phone paralyzes you, you are enslaved...
If you starting to panic when the washing machine flooding the flat, you are only overreacting...
A heating refrigerator will freak out almost anyone...
