zk: If anything, my standard of living will be better.
Why? Because there are a lot of brainwashed dumbkents who drink the “newer is better” Kool-Aid. It’s nice to be able to pick up a TV that’s a few generations old on Craigslist for $50, a non-connected coffee maker for $5, still-working appliances at the Habitat store, etc. Basically, it makes it a lot easier to be a cheap shit and recycle the leftovers of other people.
