    Makes me remember Alistair Cooke's classic comment when he, some time in the nineties, was asked if it was not time to exchange his old typewriter for a modern word-processor. His answer came as a rethorical question: "Does it write better prose?"

    I keep thinking about how in 1982 or thereabouts, one of my high school teachers were talking about the power of word processing. Everything old is new again.

    What's New is now Old, and what's Old is New again.

    Everything is old again. Typewriters are good back up, when computers are down.

    You’re being a smart ass, but it’s why you’ll always be limited to modern tech that’s meant to withhold features and break down. Enjoy your ads while typing on google docs in the future lmao I’m just waiting for them to update it.
