Yes, and you DID with your steam game example.

But I seriously cannot believe you don't see the point, that normal human needs increasingly more of specialized knowledge to do even simpler tasks every fucking time a new technology is introduced to his life.

@white_male @dave @Jens_Rasmussen
You buy cd, put it in cd player, the cd is played.
vs
You open web browser. What is web browser?
Go to search engine? What is search engine?
Enter correct terms. (I guess this part is equivalent to talking to people in the shop)
You download Smells-like-teeth-spirit.exe
You find it on the disk... You have to have an understanding of file systems.
You press enter.

Congrats, you bricked your PC, because you didn't know what is a .exe

This is a cognitive clusterfuck.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
Walking is neither unnatural, nor is it draining on brain. It is a REST for your brain.

What are you even talking about anymore?

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
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.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
I seriously cannot tell if you're joking.

@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.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
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

@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.

@Jens_Rasmussen @dave
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
But I disagree with that too

@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.
