Nevermind that it's more flexible, nevermind that we could accomplish so much more with it - it's expendable [expensive] because it reduced market penetration. Not because of the technology, because of the deluded and self-perpetuating mechanicosmic-mechanicommunication that designed our lives. It's name is capitalism, and it thrives where we survive, so that's good enough to maintain-em? Sure why not. Brb sleeping for 8 hours. Or playing games. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
