    homelabbing isnt even my gripe with it. its not ever interacting with computers on your own terms, only on theirs. smartphones are a black box.

    i see ads, artificial annoyances, and human right violations by technology increasing in lockstep with the reduction of our collective control over computing.

      I agree. I’m also very sad when I see small kids watching YouTube videos on tablets; that’s pretty much all they do.

      Where’s the fun of tinkering? Trying to build things? Trying fixing problems, such as formatting?

      Kids don’t even have the concept of files and folders. We’re raising a generation of digital slaves.
