nobody cool is spending money in 2026. we're walking in the woods, playing games outside, playing games inside, reading books from the library, pirating movies and shows, going to the park, walking around town, ripping movies from library DVDs and uploading to torrent sites,

I think modern computer software was a mistake and we should go back to our roots of developing for limited hardware.
The same amount of electricity that could power MS-DOS for a year is now used to ask Copilot how to save a Word document to your local Desktop instead of OneDrive.

People love to hate AI, but I think it's one of the most human inventions ever. The majority of my internal human experience already runs on autopilot.
