Ok, I heard some fair complaints about my schlocky previous post, and this one is much more serious. Ok, what am I saying?? It's straight-up sci-fi comedy with a retrocomputing subject matter, but I took it seriously.
Initially, I was inspired by CJ's wonderful blost about his transition from being a long-term mac user to now daily-driving Linux, and wanted to share my own experiences as a long-term Mac user over nearly two decades, with a decade and a half separating the two times. But then my internal Sotolf mental processes went off and reminded me of how elitist and anti-common-person / anti-consumer / anti-human Apple was, and I went in a very different direction.
I hope y'all enjoy the humor. :D
Minor #CW: some of the humor is of a USPOL nature. It's very light, humor and presentation-wise, but the implications are pretty dark, if you take it seriously (which you're not intended or likely inclined to!)

(I will happily add/remove you from the chorus upon request! :)

In the classic H.G. Wells novel The Time Machine, the time-hopping protagonist meets the Eloi, who live in a state of childish innocence. Everything they need is provided by invisible machinery. Maintained by the subterranean Morlocks, who eat the Eloi like farmed animals.
This is a wonderful metaphor for what hyperscale datacentres turned much of the net into.
