    For those who don’t get the reference, I’m just having a little fun by mirroring the title of a Futurisms post. It ruins it by having it explain it explicitly, though.

    I’m not seriously asking how we can do better than this. If you answer this literally, it shows you are too literal-minded and cannot get a joke.

    We can. There’s a Japanese group that has reproduced much of the Hardiman using digital controllers instead of the analog hydraulic feedback tech of the 1960s. Can’t find the link however.

    Or…you didn’t get this reference. Or…you cannot get sarcasm but can get other jokes.
