Yay!
It's just a tool. The only computer is between your ears - the rest of the stuff is binary logic and mathematics masquerading as something else. Remember, it's a dumb machine just like your washer and hair dryer (to which was alluded). It's a special dumb machine, but it's still dumb. They still can't really understand what the heck you're saying and they certainly can't think in any sense of the word.
I love the commercials. You must take them with a very large grain of salt (the Dead Sea might be a start). And as a long-time computer user of various flavors, I still find them hilarious - even as fun is poked at my main squeeze.
How can you not laugh at "speaking of peripherals!" If you can't laugh at yourself, you need sponge-bath, tickle my feet Elmo therapy. :D Face it, the world is a f...ed-up place and we don't get much time to enjoy it (lol). Isn't that funny?
C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the
foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg
off.
