I'm having trouble finding more strength in me to keep on disappointing time after time after time. I've already had this total apathy towards anything new in the tech for a long time now and constantly having everything I depend on even slightly pull moves like this just feels like one never ending slap in the face.
I had trouble quantifying what makes working on retro tech so satisfying, but it's just the whole aspect of it being dependable with no constant negative surprises and betrayals.
