    A full-speed race to the bottom!

    Starting to think about a Neu-Amish movement where we just stop with tech advancements post 2020 and live like it’s 2019 again. Shit, I’ll give up LTE and 5g to live in a world without social media.

    If I need someone to generate slop and feed it to slop-eaters, I’ll hire someone to do it so I don’t have to be involved with any of them.

      With the prices of hardware recently, I think we’re headed towards re-using old tech for a long time. I’m a professional programmer, and I’m still on my machine from 2018 with no fucking chance of upgrade for the forseeable future. Not even fucking ram. I was going to upgrade to 32gb , but ram prices skyrocketed right when I was about to buy some.
