Should we be surprised at how and why classic-computing, this site in
particular, is so popular amongst the hobbyist/experimenter community
today? There is a modicum of control that?s lacking in today?s
computing, or computing-like, technology. Granted it?s ?easier? to
use/employ, nearly by all; everything, or almost, done without
consumer input but turning the infernal beast on. Or, maybe not with
the ?intelligence agents? been employed today! And even our computers
I dare say going this route. Automatic updates, etc., etc.,
happen?Making a computer or otherwise do what you want it to do,
rather than say an Apple or something akin, is fast becoming a thing
of the past. Freedom. Let?s hope it?s not pass? either!
