I don't think this is a malicious act by Google, yet alone intentional at all. (English is not my native language and I'm unsure of how this sentence turned out. Is my grammar correct?)

Google uses a shit ton of automation on it's services. Youtube being the biggest example with all the unfair bans and copyright strikes. I believe this to be simply a case of those.

I find both bad. There. Take your presumptions away.

I don't know I never felt the need to customize the terminal. I just like what it comes with. It feels wrong to change that. Black background and colored text is fine. The rest of the OS though damn it's like a fucking birthday party! Nothing's at default ffs

I think that's pretty reasonable? If there are good offers for pre-ordering, why not?

Way better than pre-ordering video games. But that's a pretty low bar anyways.

Hopefully there will be none.

I agree with all you've said. Especially the monopoly part is where I disagreed the most. This is a good document to inform people about the ideology behind computers. Well, would be if not for those mistakes you have mentioned.

Other than those, as you have said, it's a thought-provoking essay.

Of course, you can always say some stuff like "damn who hurt you" and leave the discussion if you wish.

Thanks for obeying! Much appreciated.

Books are not meant to entertain. If you "realize" when you are over 30 that books are only for entertainment, then you are simply put, a lazy person.

Classics never outdate. They will forever remain as the must-reads for people who want to expand their knowledge and perception of the world because they come from a time where information was not as easily exchangeable as it was today. The only way to share ideas effectively and permanently was writing books.

You have no right to downlook on classics. Reading a classic book that has proven it's value long ago will forever be more beneficial to a person than an author's silly book that is written with the sole purpose of entertainment.

Reading 1984 WILL make a person clever.

Of course, you can always say some stuff like "damn who hurt you" and leave the discussion if you wish. Don't make ignorant comments if you don't know what you are speaking about.

lmao.

I like this menu. Seems like they target larger screens with this as it doesn't take up the whole screen anymore. It's like a return to the old design but with a new coat of paint.

Honestly I am really proud of everything in my life. I have learned English all by myself and I have always helped people around school with it which made me (plus being good looking and an interesting person) made me "the popular kid" in the school. In high school I was in a boys only school which really made me anxious when I speak with a girl my age. Guess that's what happens when you don't talk to a single girl of your age for 4 years. I'm not joking. I really have no female friends.

Another thing I'm proud of is my knowledge on computers. Which I assume is the majority here so I'll skip that.

I have befriended people of many types. Some were confident, outgoing people. And some were anxious, shy, insecure people. The kind of people that are afraid of making eye contact with you when speaking. I have seen those people change around me. I learned that simply listening engaging in conversation with them opens them up. And now those people are not shy anymore! They engage in activities with other people and are happy. My companionship helped them navigate through their issues and they realized that if a person such as me listens and cares about them, there are people out there that will. And I'm really proud of myself for changing their lives.

It's very lovely that they preserved the gaps in the doors!

(Which makes one ask why there’s a biography of Elon Musk there, but not one of Steve Jobs?)

That's funny.
