"gotta understand", "free projects", "need some kind of guarantees", "'invest' time", "give good answers".

Do you hear yourself?

I love that word, “may.” The linchpin of so many suppositions.
Who is paying for their internet access?

“Users” is a misnomer that sheepishly cloaks the relationship with a little feint of dignity. You are not the customer merely because you use the thing. Where the service is free, your attention, metadata, and by extension, susceptibility to influence are the value being sold; the advertisers are the customers.

As the saying goes: “If it’s free, you’re the product.”

You're romantacizing the tinkering, but you're absolutely right.

That friction of adjusting machinary to capture what we felt against what we saw was part of the process.

It slowed us down just long enough to appreciate the patterns, the textures, the form, the haesscity of a moment that seized our attention.

All technology did in this case was unlock it as a resource worth plundering.

Sometimes, I don't believe I'm not in a simulation.

I was just using it to setup cloud saving with Syncthing and Retroarch across Windows, Mac and Android (Works brilliantly). Then I come here and see this thread.

I've recently been enjoying watching this young modder on YouTube optimize all of the original SM64 source code, doubling frame rate, and modding his own Return To Yoshi's Island
