  • I know that feeling very well. I know I’m just a twenty something year old, but the Free Software, Right to Repair, and similar crowds got to me at the age of 13. I study IT currently and I hate my college, I hate the people around me, I hate this sector and I “hate” computers. I’m not in it really for the money, nor from the love I have for computing, but from the hate I feel towards how shit everything is. When people ask me why I chose to study IT, that’s what I say and I do get looks. I most likely will hate an IT job as well, I haven’t even gotten started yet and I’m already tired.

    I’m already known by my friends as the one who constantly complains unprompted about how capitalism ruins computers, so keep being that Luddite, hammer into others how really bad things are and that they can be better.

    libretion we won’t win quickly, but we will


  • Call me old (I’m not), call me a Luddite (I’m not), I don’t care.

    Fuck it. Roast me for complaining about this. You know I’m right.

    You are both old and a Luddite, and also are correct, sorry. The tech sector has nothing new to offer, so desperate not to drown it latches onto any trend it can trying to make it the next big thing. Or like any old business, does everything to minimize cost and maximize profit. I wouldn’t say this rant is pointless, it’s good to vent about this stuff.
