I am cheering so fucking hard for cyber warfare at this point holy shit. Someone please blow up the internet already it has produced nothing of value

Imagine if we would’ve spent all the resources for computer processors into funding irl tools like high speed rail and efficient transportation systems. Like holy shit we really fucked up, I spent a few days unplugged and everything that people value about the internet can be boiled down to just another circus
