You mean people aren't excited to have a conversation trying to convince the fucking OS to do something?
I'm shaken.
OS ten years ago, "I click start, type Setti, press enter, change setting."
OS:
OS ten years from now, (Vocalizing because they took KB+Mouse away) "Please OS,I just want to turn the volume down, can you do that please?"
OS: "I'm sorry, you have used up your credits for the hour, you can wait 24 hours or pay $200/month for the Pro subscription."
I'm sorry, Dave, I can't do that. Would you like to pay $50 to upgrade and allow me to 'Just open the fucking PDF'?
Considering HAL was named after IBM, all of that comment makes absolute sense; including the crippleware.
Well, shit, how did I never see that?
