Anyways, don't worry about pissing those of us who are on the nerdier, less-social side of the spectrum. That's our/my problem, not yours. And from my experience it's definitely not that you're 'off' or oversimplifying the things you talk about. You strike a good balance.
(sadly, I just can't stand DWDD anymore... I blame De Snijtafel.)
One thing that I am missing in mass media, though, is more of the critical/political aspects of hacker culture. E.g., it would be great if the worries of the tech community in the privacy/security balance debate could be represented from the tech community's side. It seems that Glen Greenwald is one of the very few visible journalists to do so.
Of course, such topics are not as 'sexy' as the new iPhone ;).
I echo this. I've noticed I have a natural inclination to dismiss anyone who talks about the tech-field on Dutch TV, since most of them are wrong and thus according to my lizard-brain get undue credit.
You usually keep properly representing the way I see the tech-world and I'm thankful for that. Not too mention you do it with enough enthusiasm that my mother understands why you are exited about it.
