If only there was a way to keep files on a device you can keep in your home. Maybe even set up a closed system that you can access from everywhere without having to rely on Google's servers 24/7.

Oh wait, there is. Nevermind.

As much as I'm talking shit, I get it. At the end of the day convenience is a hell of a drug.

I was just thinking about this a little earlier.

People simply can't be bothered to learn how systems work (any kind, technical, financial, political), then bitch when it doesn't work the way they want or think it should.

I'm as guilty as anyone (especially finance). At least I try to not bitch about it too much, and work at keeping away from more complex stuff that I just don't understand well enough.
