I HATE COMPUTERS. I HATE THAT I SPEND MOST OF MY DAY STARING AT GLOWING RECTANGLES. I HATE THAT MOST JOBS CONSIST OF USING COMPUTERS. I HATE HAVING A BILLION DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS TO REMEMBER AND ALL THESE DOCUMENTS AND FILES TO ORGANISE. I HATE ENDLESS AUTHENTICATING. I HATE ZOOM CALLS. I HATE OUTLOOK, ONEDRIVE AND SHAREPOINT. I HATE HAVING TO DO ALL MY BANKING ONLINE BECAUSE THE BRANCHES HAVE SHUT. I HATE HAVING TO MAKE DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS ON THEIR AWFUL WEBSITE. I HATE ALL THE STUPID, UNFUNNY MEMES. I HATE HAVING MY WORK PORTAL SITTING IN MY FUCKING BEDROOM. I HATE THAT NOONE FUCKING GOES OUT ANYMORE BECAUSE THEY'D RATHER TALK ON DISCORD. I HATE ENDLESS SUBSCRIPTIONS. I HATE NOT OWNING THE THINGS THAT I PAY FOR. I HATE COMPUTERS, NO, THE INTERNET, OR EVEN JUST THE MODERN INTERNET. TAKE ME BACK TO 2001 WHEN MY COMPUTER WAS A FUNNY WHITE BOX THAT I GOT MAIL FROM AND THAT WAS THAT. TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN YOU RENTED A MOVIE OR A GAME FROM A STORE AND IT FELT LIKE AN EVENT. TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN THE OFFICE STAYED IN THE FUCKING OFFICE. TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN THE BANK MANAGER WOULD TALK TO ME FACE TO FACE, OR WHEN I COULD BOOK AN APPOINTMENT BY WALKING INTO A FUCKING DOCTOR'S OFFICE. I HATE IT ALL I HATE MODERN LIFE I HATE SMARTPHONES TOO. FUCK IT FUCK IT FUCK IT FUCK IT I HATE IT FUCCKCKCKAKEFRAJPFJIP
>>106455464debian lts on your 'esktop, throwing your phone in the bin, and quitting your job to become ruralchad, construction worker or lumberjack would fix you
Me too Anon, me too...
>>106455464Go outside.
You hate the internet and smartphones, not computers.Sometimes i wonder, what if we artificially restricted internet speeds to 3mbps? Just as an experiment to see how society would react.
>>106455475I am actually pursueing a career in construction or some sort of trade. I'm competing with an army of cheap polish people but that's that price to pay I guess.
>TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN YOU RENTED A MOVIE OR A GAME FROM A STORE AND IT FELT LIKE AN EVENTso you just like wasting money on things you could get for free? total millennialtranny mental illness
>>106455524people would pay for multiple ISPs or other workarounds obviously
>>106455475I just need to buy a house. Somewhere outside the city with a lower than average mortgage. Then I can downgrade my job to something with less stress and less money.
>>106455613You really think norms are gonna do all that?
>>106455464I both hate and love my 'puter. On one hand, technology and the internet have seeped their way into almost all facets of modern life, so you NEED to interact with it for a lot of things, and people who would've otherwise never bothered with it are now everywhere. But then I find some cool software or game and I realize why I threw away my life for this stuff. What I'm trying to get at anony, is that fuck it we ball.>>106455660You could make bank setting that shit up for people though.
Bump
>>106455464lmao just get a blue collar job like me op i only have to use a computer twice a day once when i clock in once when i clock out
>>106455524Kek, IKTF.Lately, I've taken to hanging out in the woods and writing python shit for my calculator. It's max comfy.I've also got an airgapped desktop so I can pretend I'm programming in the 90s.
Nobody has the sack to stop using them altogether.
>>106455464I hate living but you don't see me throwing a tantrum with a screaming frog
I Love My Computerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlM0vahvauU
>>106458930if you were smart you would do the same
>>106455464Touch grass
>>106455464Touch grass?
>>106455464You don't hate computers, you hate normie techslop dystopia. Welcome aboard.
I hate computers so much that I love them.
>>106459783nah u guys saying this are misunderstanding the underlying points.why does the normie net suck in the first place?well because hyper socializing in a virtual reality thats all fake is going to make anyone toxic. its not an issue of retards are on the internet, but the internet makes people retarded. >I HATE THAT NOONE FUCKING GOES OUT ANYMORE BECAUSE THEY'D RATHER TALK ON DISCORDexample. thats an issue that the internet/computers caused but it effects him IRL and now its rarer to see young people actually walking around town, for potential chitchat
>>106455464you don't hate computers.you hate modern software and its utilization in bureaucratic shit
>>106460319>you hate modern software and its utilization in bureaucratic shitso you hate when computers are used as computers, for computer things (communication)but its not a computer issue it doesnt make much sense to me fren
>>106460344heres a theorhetical exercise we can do. say there is no internet, but theres still smartphones and computers right. but on these devices its just a hyper simulation, it mimicks an entire different world and feels completely real, buts its not. its all 1's and 0'sso in this scenario, no internet exist, but this device exists.people are still going to massively escape into this device, and get lost, and never want to engage with reality and the real world again, because thats way more challenging and the device gives you instant reward whenever you wish.the issue in this scenario, is the device, the computer, the technology. and not retards people social on the internet.
>>106460344>for computer thingscomputers were primarily designed to function as complex calculators, their first use was to calculate ballistic or logistics tables during World WWIIthen they developed communication protocols to transfer information between academic campuses.none of this is intended to create interaction between the individual and institutions or organizations such as health facilities or banks.
>>106460368david foster wallace wrote extensively about this kind of thing and the "death of sincerity". before even smartphones were a thing and the internet had wide adoption. he could see how perfect it would be to use everyone's base, and carnal instincts against them. >DAVID>Because the technology is just gonna get better and better. And it's gonna get easier and easier, and more and more convenient, and more and more pleasurable, to be alone with images on a screen, given to us by people who do not love us but want our money. Which is fine. In low doses. But if that's the basic main staple of your diet? You're gonna die. In a meaningful way, you're going to die.
>>106455464you don't hate computers.you hate your life.
>>106460530computers have taken over our lives so your point is meaningless.and if you think you dont hate your life youre wrong because no one that loved themselves would just post a mean snarky useless comment

>>106458242Soon you'd have to get the app to clock in. Which means you'll need a smart phone. Which means you'll need to activate location. Which means everything you do and everywhere you go will now be recorded and scrutinized. Have fun while you can!
