A long while back, I came to a realization: computers exist less to be personally exciting, than being tools one can use to solve problems (unless you find that exciting, which I admit I still sometimes do). But if Apple truly represents “bland ubiquity”, it’s not like there isn’t an entire industry which could challenge them on this. Why not demand something different from it?
Is it really smugness that folk might want to spend less time fixing and more time just doing the things? I suppose just saying that out loud makes anyone sound “smug”, though I can’t for the life of me understand why.
But when people say “X didn’t work as well” that means they may be describing their experience. If you did not have that experience, then it probably doesn’t apply to you.
Never played or seen a frame. I’ve heard of it of course, but the premise didn’t fall within my interests.
