Oh, 100% agree. I was just answering the prompt “What do you think history textbooks will say 50 years from now?” in the most depressing way possible. I do not endorse Trump, Fascism or anything that will lead to a dystopian future.

“And that was the beginning of the reign of the immortal God-emperor Trump (praise him!)”
I’m in two minds about that. One the one hand, yes, of course - as all the original COBOL folks die off, the skills will be even rarer and thus worth more.
On the other hand, if we keep propping up old shit, the businesses will keep relying on it and it’ll be even more painful when they do eventually get forced to migrate off it.
On the other other hand, we know it works, and we don’t want to migrate everything into a series of Electron apps just because that’s popular at the moment.
That’s a good point, hadn’t considered that.
No, I was thinking about the lack of empathy required to actively hate everyone under a certain age.

It’s like they’re all reading the same copy of ‘how not to be a garbage human being’ and doing the exact opposite of each lesson…
And yet you’ll still go into debt forever to pay for your own healthcare.
But at least basically anyone can own a gun, so yay freedom, I guess.
“Rent for £3.99”
But I already pay for Amazon Prime, wtf? Greedy bastards…
Isn’t that because at the root of greed is the inability to be satisfied? Why don’t billionaires, when they have literally money beyond avarice, more than they could possibly spend in a thousand lifetimes, just say “nope, I don’t need any more, everything else I earn can go to charity”?
But they don’t. They get richer. And despite the public image of them, they’ll still try and screw the regular workers out of as many toilet breaks as they can get away with in order to maximise how much they earn.
It’s almost beyond evil.
So you’re saying… only a clanker can call another clanker ‘clanker’?
Christ, the Gammons would canonise Churchill if they could, and the man was a monster.
Maybe I should at least reserve my real name on it…

Nope, don’t care that much.
