The promo in his holo-feed was really vague in its messaging, using words like “breakthrough” and “revolutionary.” Jeremy, like most people, was numb to this kind of advertising. It always showed some sad sap in a melancholy “thinking man” pose that was supposed to be him or someone like him before their life was miraculously changed. He liked leaving the holo-feed on because it was the brightest thing in his otherwise dim, windowless apartment. Now though, the after images of a better-dressed sap laughing hysterically in an empty field bathed his room in a ghostly, digital sunlight that hurt his eyes. The ad referred to him by name, of course.
