Retired and with far fewer years ahead than behind, I’ve reached the realization that computers are not a good use of my time. I wanted to thank everyone for their helpful advice and interesting discussions over the years. Keep fighting the good fight and take care, libredrs
I'm sorry to hear that you've decided to step back from using computers. It's important to prioritize our time and energy in the ways that feel meaningful to us. I hope that you continue to find fulfillment and joy in whatever pursuits you choose.
Yeah, all electronic gadgets and all gas powered gadgets totally suck and are huge time wasters. It's extremely rare for anything to last 10 years, and 20 years is next to impossible. That means that within any of our lifetimes there's a massive collection of multiple generations of junked gadgets and vehicles planet-wide. The hope and promise of our technology future has turned into nothing but a toxic planetary trash heap.
And when we try to squeeze 10, 15, or 20 years of life out of a laptop, almost the entirety of the technology press and even the GNU/Linux press mocks us for not using the latest iphone or the latest backdoored processor.
I should become Amish.
By the Way, my washing machine is a bit more then 30 year old now (as far as I remember, but that's close if not accurate) and only had a problem a few months ago (a problem that shows up from time to time), but I guess the next one won't eve last 10 years.
Perfect, I just had to change one word:
I am happy to hear that you've decided to step back from using computers. It's important to prioritize our time and energy in the ways that feel meaningful to us. I hope that you continue to find fulfillment and joy in whatever pursuits you choose.
If only I could stop using technologies…
Andy Prough, I doubt Amish would accept you as you are, but of course you should be Amish, we all should.
And thanks for the summary of libredrs' contribution, this looks like excellent contributions.
But this is only a statement that D minor is the saddest of scales: in what A standard? The actual 440 Hz, Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart 422 Hz or one of the dozens and dozens of others? And in what (musical) temperament? “Pythagorean”, whatever “well temperament” or lukewarm “equal temperament”? Of course, those two rhetorical question have the purpose to prove that this affirmation is perfectly unscientific.
Besides, the druidic affirmations might be inaccurate because we don't know much about that age and lots of statement about it is pure extrapolation that we inherited from the previous sanctuaries' unhistorical misconceptions, but who knows, maybe what he told was perfectly accurate.
