Downloading media is MORE cognitively complex and knowledge dependent, then buying a CD.

And digitalization does allow for ever more increasing complexity of tax codes, that require increased ammount of datapoints, that are getting near impossible to calculate by hand.

I have no idea what half of the required datapoints even mean... You know... Simple fucking shit.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
But our lives are going the singular way towards ridiculously more complex in every way I can observe. :alexjonesfight:

@dave
You posted this as a "twitter cringe" right?
Tell me you don't agree with it.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
50 years ago...
Yeah.... no.
Just no.
You're asking about an impossible standard now, since the technology wasn't even part of their life 50 years ago.

What are you even trying to argue about, if you have to go to 1970?

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
But not easier, then downloading photos at once, and sending them again.

This problem was purely caused by the "simplification of UI", that was also made for the sole purpose of making people dependent on that singular app.

Whenever I visit a site on a phone, I have to consider if I want to switch to a mobile version, and hope that the website "gets it".

Youtube alone requires 4 extensions to be usable.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
Yes, it is a her problem.

But IT IS A FUCKING PROBLEM!!!! THAT'S THE ENTIRE POINT OF THIS ARGUMENT :tanya_reee:

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
Instead of just sanding me 20 photos my dad got through Telegram, he had to find some complicated way to download all 20 of them individually, since he couldn't even do it on mass, only so he can send them to me by e-mail, only because his favorite communication method was not one of 20 that I happen to be using.

My mom cannot even keep up with the number of passwords she has to remember. She cannot go to a shop without both phone and 30 different cards.

Our government just decided to require all entrepreneurs to use their broken new mail, because why the fuck not?

Every single "benefit" that tbe technology brings comes at the cost of 20 little inconveniences that are already far beyond what most people, including me, can handle.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
My point still stands though, since now, we are adding layers into the code, as well as encryption, virtualization, networking etc...

Yes, the complex tools do add ""some"" more tools to the common people too, but the edge is always moving towards more complex and powerful.

@dave
From by-plane to f-35 is move towards simplicity?
From bike to motorcycle is towards simplicity?
How about from hoe to combine?

@mimorinka @MasterSimper @bleedingphoenix The pre-Disney Extended Universe had plenty of pre-made stories to refine, expand, adapt to other media. Bob Igor, Kennedy, and company threw that all out because the Star Wars EU was made mostly by straight, White men for straight White men and would interfere with Yidsney globohomo plans.

@icedquinn
