Binary Technology, #technology based on and dependant upon #software and #hardware to exist, has not only become bloated and in most cases unstable and often unuseable as intended, this trend continues because the average end users have shrugged their shoulders thrown up their hands and sigh as they say what can we do it is what it is and we need to use it, developers will continue to droll out bloated software engineers will continue to create deeper and deeper hardware dependencies forcing software to rely on the newest hardware, our devices will become dumber and dumber as we pay outrageous prices for them and we will never truly own them, when every other year we are forced to replace them because the software won't work on them, the proprietary capitalistic model software and hardware companies have used for the last 100 years, is no longer viable for the general population, and yet people and their inherent laziness enables this theft of technological stability, the open source community has been battling this for decades, there is plenty of #opensource software out there to run every facet of your life, but because technology has marketed you have to pay now you have to have the latest people simply are baffled as to how free software can turn a 10 year old computer into a powerhouse, how things like #LibreOffice can actually replace Microsoft Office, how #Digikam, #Rawtherapee and #Gimp can replace Adobe, how #Vivaldi with #Brave search can replace Google, how self hosting can provide their own cloud and email service, how #Linux can replace Windows and MacOS, I have heard it time and time again, its to hard to set up, to hard to use and does not have the functions I need, even when shown otherwise, we are falling into a trap in where we need new constantly, we are filling our landfills with #ewaste we never actually owned, we are battling our tasks with software we don't like don't own and is constantly riddled with bugs, and the major players are banking big on this continued philosophy that if you don't pay for it and don't have the newest your not secure and your never going to get the job done, yet every day with that millions of bytes of data are leaked, hardware crashes faster than ever before and people just toss their hands up saying there is nothing we can do, no there is nothing your willing to do about it, your not willing to spend an Saturday afternoon learning something new that in the long term will save you time and money, keep throwing your money out on hardware and software you don't own, and soon even your own thoughts will no longer be yours, you will have to pay for them, many already are by paying for Ai models to think for them, humans have excelled at becoming stupid and lazy and most can no longer recognize that fact;

You can encourage my continued useless #poetry, creativity and expression of self, #commentary, random thoughts, #philosophy and ideas, and by doing so your helping to feed, house and clothe a #disabled man living in #poverty, $5-10-15 It All Helps, via #cashapp at $woctxphotog or via #paypal at paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=…
