I hope in some fashion computers and related technology drop out of mainstream appeal and are relegated to actual nerds and tinkerers again. Not in a gatekeeping sense, but just where the goals are about pushing boundaries for the sake of exploration and not solely profit and personal data acquisition motivated.

as my system chases it’s tale in a silicon frenzy
Nice proofreading, Lazlow J.
I’m just a bit too young to have been part of the BBS scene, but I’ve certainly done plenty of Windows re-installs. I had a friend that would wipe his Windows 98SE drive every two weeks or so, whether or not there was any instability. I recently stumbled across an old backup of some screenshots and found one where I was apparently proud of the 31 day system uptime. Best part of the transition to NT based Windows was definitely the near complete elimination of BSoDs. Kinda blocked out the bad memories of random lockups and blue screens just being an expected part of daily computing life.
