Happy Halloween! (+ a Geeky Holiday List)

Happy Halloween!

It's the final day of the month and one of the best since it's Halloween. Did you celebrate over the weekend or are you planning something for today? The only thing I did over the weekend was go to my favorite bookstore on Saturday because there was a fun little Halloween themed event and sale (I got a few books). Later that night, I went over to my friend's house for a mini horror movie marathon. So tonight, I'm just going to relax at home and watch TV while eating some Halloween candy.

And speaking of watching TV, for this geeky Halloween list, I kind of went old school/retro/modern classics for most of the picks. Hopefully, there's something on the list that will interest someone. Here's also the links to my two (1 and 2) previous geeky lists. Well, ghouls and goblins, I hope everyone will have a spooktacular Halloween!

10 Times Smart Technology has gone Bad in TV and Movies

I love technology but at times it can be a good thing while other times it feels like there is way too much tech along with it steadily advancing. And with every advancement comes with so many potential problems. This had me thinking of some TV show episodes and movies where technology doesn't always work in our favor and sometimes end up terrorizing us.

This is only a small list of tech episodes and movies but from smart houses to robots it shows how technology can sometimes end up terrorizing (or occasionally helping) us either by artificial intelligence or from someone manipulating it.
