Surely we are in a steel age and not an iron age

Technically it was never the iron age but the steel age.

End of silicon age and the start of the quantum age.

That's ridiculous, you can't make a good sword out of silicon.

How do you know? I bet you never even tried.

Well I tried a "sword" made out of silicon and it was only good for pleasuring my wife
