Yeah, but I know some pretty smart dumb people and some pretty dumb smart people. I don’t think it’s IQ thing, at least alone (don’t event really buy the whole IQ thing).

I’m sure it works great but it’s like curing a toothache by breaking another one out on the other side of your mouth. My problem with windows isn’t how difficult to use it is, it’s how restricted and how connected it must be. I don’t have full control of the system and I’m required to have external accounts for it to work. Same with chrome.
My data is mine, I don’t want it accessed, owned and controlled by a faceless internet corporation.
So, professionally I do not care what system I am expected to use, they are all functional. If the person signing my paycheck is comfortable with it, so be it (in fact, I’m a big proponent of externalizing risk in a corporate setting). Personally though, I’ll keep up my greybeard routine :).
You know what, fine, let’s see how it goes.
Honestly, I’d love more people to disrupt and try shit (that obviously won’t work, but still…). What I hate is that people try this kind of shit but get billions in a16z money which legitimizes the stupidity from the start. Then when they fail, they use the stupid money to convince others that they couldn’t have been the problem, otherwise they wouldn’t have ever “succeeded”.
Then they get another several billion…
This goddamned grifter economy sucks.
I like it, do it! Have you read Altered Carbon? Has some similar themes. I loved the book, might be some good inspiration. I’ll read yours when it’s out, love that genre :).
The rich are the problem, something needs to be done about them. I’m hungry.
Edit- ugh, embarrassing misspelling left up too long.
Honestly, I hope you are right. At the moment though, I have very little faith in the American electorate.
People want concrete policy, economic fixes, and the end of culture war shit.
This is your conclusion after the fucking country elected that fucker? No, Americans don’t give a shit about any of that. People on Lemmy want that.
Americans want shit flinging, grudge based, reality show style fights. I don’t know that Kelly is enough of an asshole to be honest.
Exactly, the vision was flawless, it will all be blamed on the execution. The people who failed to build it will be held accountable though; departments of them…
Fucking awesome system we have here.
Naked, open, and completely unchallenged. It’s so fucked up I just can’t even..
Wish I had more upvotes to give, spot on.
