Technology is kind of shit now

posted 1 month ago

I’m kind of sick of being into tech. Everything is riddled with ads and speculative investment. You have to manage your expectations so much because everything has a good likelihood of turning into garbage at a moments notice. It’s just not fun anymore. I know I’m probably a bit nostalgia blinded, but I miss the mid-late 2000s and early 2010s so much. Games were new and interesting, tech was moving at a lightning fast pace, things were fun.

I know it’s more complicated than that, and there are reasons things are how they are, but fuck man. Anyway, off my chest.

I think that we’ve hit a wall in terms of major technological advancements for now, and since we can’t make substantially better graphics or sound or overall usability the only avenue left to exploit is software.

RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The “good” part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don’t intend to make this a “safe space” where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That’s why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that’s fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
