I find it… odd… that the American Conservatives I know who choose not to have an opinion on the South African guy who uses Twitter to issue instructions to their legislators also using Twitter to endorse a German Nazi-curious party also choose to berate those of us who do have an opinion on the matter on the grounds of his right to freedom of speech.
I wonder how long it would take Elon Musk to paint an entire apartment (two coats).

Two other factors why products sucked back then, which I suspect may recall grim memories , were the executives who just wanted "it all computerising" with no idea of what "it" was either at the "as is" or "to be" stage and a furious impatience with any enquiry about it; and those (sometimes the same) who required full backwards compatibility with pen and paper because they'd be running both in parallel but laying off people on the strength of computerised efficiency.
