    @eniko I can switch on a BBC micro and load View in less time than I can wake my Windows 11 laptop and load MS Word. Seems that the faster computers become; the longer it takes to do the same things with them.

        @eniko can we also request the coders to have a nap time during the day? Rest is important, and I'm not kidding about that either.

          @eniko I miss the days where getting an update was like christmas. Now I mumble to myself 'what did you mess up this time..'

            @eniko And fewer applications. Today I learned that Ubuntu now has Snapshot, as well as screenshot but that Snapshot shows up as Camera, though it didn't when it was called Cheese. This happened 2 years ago.

              @eniko Agreed! Updates are becoming an annoyance, like a swarm of gnats.

                  @eniko looks like copying being the highest form of flattery is also possible in the fediverse https://donotsta.re/objects/67cb9b8d-ff23-4e10-8af3-f26ec1c50ac3

                    @pouncy_panda eh, that one's a bit different from mine so i wouldn't jump to conclusions

                    though even if someone copied it verbatim, in this case i'd probably just be happy to see this thought spreading further

                                    @eniko the fun thing is that even the non-techies want that!
                                    But instead some racers or people who only look at the competition decide we must deliver faster...
