ME: Hello computer! Please show me what I was doing recently

COMPUTER IN THE 1980's: l cease to exist when I am powered off. Please start whatever you were doing from scratch

COMPUTER IN THE 2000's: Yep here you go champ

COMPUTER IN THE 2020's: I stored 10,000 identical copies of what you were doing in 500 different global datacentres at a carbon footprint equivalent to leaving a semi-trailer idling 24/7 and also sent a copy to the FBI just to be safe. Let me know which one you want and I'll do my best to figure it out. By the way here are 10 things which are similar to what you were doing and 9 of them are ads. Do you like this?

but please dont wear yourself out and traumatize yourself. put that desire for justice into meaningful things instead of doomscrolling

For some reason I thought Twitter had added an easy way to get their stylized "X" logo to show up (like adding it to their emoji popover). But nope, these fucking dorks are going out of their way add it to posts.
