Nice. I'm still continually baffled that there isn't a bigger push for the following fundamental idea:
"Any human being can hold an effectively infinite library, which is to say infinite knowledge in their hand for about $100. Any barrier to this should be regarded as negative, if not straight up evil."
- therealdrag0 5y agoDon’t most people have access to the internet already with more information then they’ll consume? And many of us live where there are public libraries. That’s a pretty weird/loose definition of evil. Isn’t it more if a “nice to have”? How about the inverse, it should be regarded as evil to expect people to work for a pittance or free to provide you with cheap devices and unlimited libraries?
