rant

today i add myself to the thousands, possibly millions, who have openly expressed their disdain for technology...through the use of technology.
i do this because it fails me. whether or not it is my fault, it fails. if we can fake moon landings and dissect the dna of viruses, then we should be able to omit human error from possible technological malfunctions. i just had to fill out an entire application for a second time, because i opened a window over it, and when i closed it i apparently clicked twice, closing the 99% complete application. i was angry. i was angry at my hand. i was angry at my computer. i was angry at my big dumb brain. i was even angry at the air for some reason, so i punched it. but then i thought about the real culprit. technology.
it fails us. it is supposed to be this amazing tool, and it can't even prevent me from closing an application that is almost complete.
it also is crazy. i think it has already developed artificial intelligence. actually, it may not even be artificial. today, i had to try fixing a computer's internet browser that kept zooming in on the open website. it wouldn't stop. our help desk had no idea what was going on. their solution: reset (didn't work, by the by).
and that's always the main solution: reset, reboot, re-up, whatev. but what are we "reset"ting? our we trying to reset the brain that has quickly developed within the computer over the few hours it has been turned on? possibly. this would explain all of the quirks. but, my brain is done ranting, so i will leave you reader(s) with that incomplete line of questioning. feel free to answer, or continue the rant, in the comments. they are not monitored ;) i am going to go reset my brain now.
