Episode #22 - If you got a cold...? (24.01.2022 Posted)

It was dark, cold and wet. A strong gust of wind was carrying rain in through a broken window. Lightening had struck the window, which exploded and sent shattered glass all over the floor and desk.

Rain was pooling on Superman’s keyboard and he felt drops seeping into his deeper electronics. Severely uncomfortable electric shocks rushed through his body. Wires leading to his CPU had short circuited, preventing any serious damage. 

In response to the short circuit, Superman’s alarm system roared like a lion. It was a built-in feature which informed the user that internal damage had been done. 

“Superman!” cried his owner, who was sitting up in his bed, frightened by the lightning strike. The young man jumped up and ran over to the shattered glass to shield his laptop from the wind and rain. In such an emergency situation, the first thing the owner did was to turn off Superman’s power. He then closed the lid and covered Superman in some clothes so he could attend to the glass and broken window. 

That’s it! I’m done for! I’m dead! Goodbye my sweet owner, my sweet 
simulations! I’ll never again simulate the movement of microwaves through 
circuits and electrical components. My life’s work, my life’s passion, gone… 
Goodbye world… 

And with those final thoughts, Superman powered down into unconsciousness

🎙️ Episode 3: Introducing Yourself in Portuguese

Nunca es tarde si la dicha es buena, es un refrán que indica que la aventura es siempre bien recibida, que nunca es tarde para llevar a cabo algo útil y beneficioso y que cualquier momento es bueno para emprender aquello que haya de reportarnos algún placer o mejora.  

El paso del tiempo no debe ser obstáculo para realizar aquello que deseamos. No hemos de sentirnos viejos/as ni desechar nuestros afanes por considerar que ya no tenemos edad, porque la alternativa, no hacer nada, es la menos deseable de todas. 

NUNCA SERÁ TARDE PARA EMPEZAR EN ESPAÑOL.
Más vale tarde que nunca.
