Lol I'm not disapproving anything. You just took it that way.
One thing you're right about. Sure I'm insecure because cash is money and new, indirect ways of consuming one's labor is scary, even more so when it's relatively new and unestablished route.
As a writer I would've expected you not to start recycling stuff just yet. It's dull for the reader and you're not really emphasizing a great point, more like an elementary school insult.
Unless the point is that you're a bit of a bore, that is.
I'm having really hard time picturing this scenario you're trying to describe. So like irl kid coming to me and talking about scifi concepts and you think I'd say to them "kinda irks me but I can see the appeal"?
You're fucking weird. Probably not a foreign concept for you.
Well sorry about that. I thought I presented it more as me problem than you but obviously I wasn't clear enough (or probably should've just said nothing).
Well good for you, but this feels like you're insecure about people judging you for not reading a book. I don't know why else you'd be so up in my ass.
Thanks for that. I know I'm being a bit of an asshat. This just wounds my inner writer (who I'm trying to assure that it's not that big of a deal even in my own comment).
Because part for me about consuming media is having the artist's intent come through and exploring the ideas they put on the paper, slow or fast buildup and character development etc. When you have it summarized you really can't catch it all.
That being said I still don't think this is a bad thing, it's just my personal problem. Any artist should appreciate their art being consumed at any level and if the hooks are good enough summarization like this might even turn the viewer into a reader.
I have to admit that you admission of not having the room in your life for reading books but enjoying their concepts summarized irks me, but yeah I see the appeal.
The divide between those who eat this bullshit and those who were responsibly raised will be fucking wild. Like think about that one dude in your life that hadn't heard about 'X', a thing that's common knowledge, and how baffling that was but now it's nonstop bafflement with a certain percentage of population.
Why? Tesla did what was beneficial for them, the other car manufacturers did the same for them. Now EVs are here to stay, they can't backtrack and Tesla seems like they were shitty in their own way like outright lying about the range and suppressing complaints. That doesn't mean that the other companies are the good guys, the subscription seat warmers are fucking idiotic but that doesn't make Tesla good either.
My understanding is that USB-C as a standard is pretty all over the place. Some can fast charge etc. So my guess is that Apple will come up with some superduper performance USB-C or they'll at least present it as such. And why not sooner? Because they were in the lab perfecting it.
You apparently have no idea how libraries even work so I guess this is it. Thanks for the chat, I feel dumber than before.
