Where is your(my) happiness? Depending on your belief system or lack thereof, it can be in any number of things, God, community, the goodness of people, your significant other, family, pets etc etc…

Politics and technology (and their blending together) is a lousy system to believe in. Corporations are here to extract the maximum dollars, and politics to extract the maximum votes, both will do or say whatever is necessary to do that.

And so, with that in mind, if you enjoy or hate Liquid Glass, that’s okay! Just like we vote for a politician because they are only slightly better than “the other person” our tech can be the same. And if they cross the bridge that’s too far it’s okay to dip a toe into the “other side“ as so many have.

This isn’t a fully formed thought but I wanted to put this down in a blog post because it just feels like so much has gotten blown out of proportion because the podcasters and youtubers who make a living out of big opinions and hurt feelings. They have pushed those feelings down to those of us who just enjoy tech and it might do us all some good to consider that the makers of our glowing rectangles only really care about our money.

That being said, does anyone want to start a consumer electronics company that’s void of politics? I’ll bet there is some demand here!
