I don't recall if I said this already, but I hate the demands society and culture have seem to imposed on regular people to keep up with current technology and current technology trends.
It was kind of annoying when Windows would constantly come up with new upgrades to their Windows operating system, rendering whatever computer you were using that had the most current OS obsolete.
It was also annoying when computer companies seemingly kept coming out with new computer models to render the one you were currently using in a short period of time.
The Onion Movie made a reference to this and parodied it.
I remember watching Attack Of The Show on G4TV before G4TV disbanded. They had a daily segment on this show that highlighted the current digital technology that was out at the time. They also had E3 coverage every year which highlighted new digital tech that was out at the time.
I ignored this segment of the show and I really didn'tcare for the E3 coverage. I was reluctant to want to buy any new tech and keep up with it at the time; I was content with using my old-school tech. In hindsight, however, I wish I did pay more attention to the tech that was being showcased on AOTS and in the E3 coverage they had.
My nearest local library was the last public facility I know of that still had computers with floppy disk drives. I was back over at my nearest local public library recently after they went back to operating at normal business hours again.
I didn't notice if they still had the old comps which had floppy disk drives that were situated near the front end desk but they got rid of the comps that had floppy disk drives in them in the MAIN section of the library.
I still have my old floppy disks. I am wondering how I'm going to retrieve the info I have saved to them without a disk drive. I would have still liked to have used them to save docs to them and use them for word processing purposes.
Doesn't really seem like people have too much of a choice now about using new school tech and keeping up with it, but this is the 21st century. I've gotten used to this.
