Stupid People
How free is free when you are forced to use Google Chrome? Forced, absolutely—in a sense, I am, just like millions of others. The government and the bank alone already compel you to use this browser, which knows everything about you and feeds you precisely what you want to "hear".
I am not a Google fan, and therefore not a Google Chrome enthusiast either. This browser is not meant for people with older devices, slower internet connections, or when you have a memory deficiency (not me, but the devices I use).
So there you are, trying to be frugal, not buying new things because what you use works perfectly well, if it weren't for the bleating government and their like forcing you to sideline anything that doesn't fit their agenda (control, control, control, it's all about control!) and replace it with something new. That new thing is polluting, simply because it was produced unnecessarily, and it's the next disposable item because, of course, there are no proper parts to repair the wretched thing that falls apart from misery the moment the warranty expires.
On the sticker plastered on the food bank window it says: let's be frugal and share everything fairly.
That seems like an excellent idea to me when it comes to governments, manufacturers, and the world's wealthy.
Set a good example, and others will follow, right? And if they don't know how it's done, they're welcome to come live with me for a year and do everything the old-fashioned way.

The irony is really striking. Right now in Nigeria , inflation has skyrocketed to 22% due to the crazy policies from the government. Always telling us to endure and cut down on our spending but those in power keep buying very expensive cars for themselves, buying new private jet , presidential yacht and renovation of assembly quarters.

Yup you are right in the way that all are obsessed with Google or chrome. It's difficult or I can say among the millions people a very little or almost no one is used to with the same old fashion like our mother father. They are indeed the last generation. My own mother used to say why you all time use this. No doubt the the google is the source of study. But it is not always true. The CHATGPT people use to be honest I used it for my assignment and I got mostly wrong.
I was pissed off that day. There are uses and disuse of it. The Steemit is also on Google or chrome. So not always it's a bad source. There are advantages and disadvantages a better line to say.
No doubt u r different. When I asked u for Instagram account that has probably the little child too but u Dont have it. I thought in this era she is not using it!!!
But it's right though. When I had not it I used to play with the things I had in my home. Our bad that we are always stuck to the social media and it's apps.
Happy writing.may ALLAH bless uhhh 🎀💞

Hey @wakeupkitty, this piece really hits home! I love how you've woven together the seemingly disparate prompts into a powerful commentary on control, planned obsolescence, and the hypocrisy of frugality preached from on high. The line about "the bleating government" forcing upgrades that benefit no one but manufacturers? Gold! It's a sentiment many of us feel, and you've articulated it perfectly.
The video adds another layer, highlighting the pervasive reach of Google. It's a compelling call for mindful consumption and a critical look at the systems that pressure us.
I especially appreciate the offer to have people "live with me for a year and do everything the old-fashioned way" – now THAT'S a challenge! 😂
Thanks for sparking such important thoughts. I'd love to hear more about your experiences with older tech and fighting against the upgrade treadmill. What are some of your favorite old-fashioned methods?
