And there’s a lot of people in the world that effectively get told this all their life.
Some for things that aren’t even their choice.
Everybody definitely doesn’t.
don’t recall it having a cpu
So, what’s updating the display? Power supply imps?
Why did the reuse old master tapes?
Money. Or the perception that there isn’t money to be gained from the replication and maintenance of the archives.
Paper doesn’t last, is hard to store, and the information density is miserable.
And for bigger data sets, the capacity isn’t there. And writable media is getting more rare. Probably because of the same reason.
It would be so cool to have an actual functional system for expelling the worst of us
There is, but somehow death sentences are kind of controversial.
There aren’t, really. There are a few antiques and half baked things.
A big problem is that these days, unless you’re the size of Apple or Samsung, it’s impossible to get a reasonable hardware soc and modem other than one which only runs a soon obsolete blob laden android which is going to be EOL before you’ve even finished your design.

It’s the stupid name.
Gadgets are cheap.
If be interested. I’ve only used desktop VLC and only as a backup player since it tends to have its own code for most things instead of using shared components that sometimes it can do things other players fail at. That could be useful on Android as well and if the player’s also good, no who knows.
I’m very much fine with that, too. I just think it was on the right on Sun keyboards. Either way, not the most common key but infinitely more useful than a caps lock.
4/5g is exactly the allowed alternative and what refusing to allow infrastructure use leads to.
That’s what good link aggregators are for.
I was mumble-something before there was an independent Montenegro.
It does have that ring to it, like Montevideo. I think what helps me is I heard so much once about Serbia and Montenegro that it’s kind of become an association path to former Yugoslavia.
Then you can give it to someone else to read or sell it and even more people can read it.
The movie Brazil features a literal bug in a system as a plot device.
