Because sentimental fools are attached to tradition and conservationism, and wish for things to remain the same for no other reason than to keep them the same.

The thing with “conservativism”, is that it is often called “hæritage” when it would pertain a foreign culture rather than one's own. However to me it is not a foreign culture since I live close to Rotterdam, so it's simply “conservativism”.

What I find interesting is that “progressives” of one culture often ally themselves with the “conservatives” of another, not realizing that in the foreign culture they are often seen as the conservatives who stick to outdated ideals that serve no function any more for it's own sake, simply because they do not wish for things to change.

ARCHER is on a range of research projects, such as modelling weather patterns and biomedical data, simulating the Earth’s climate and designing new materials. But its role in supporting a number of different COVID-19 research projects might have proven a particular draw to hackers. “I am not sure if anyone can say for sure whether this is a targeted attack to either exfiltrate data relating to Covid-19 research or it was an attack to slow the progress of research into Covid-19 by state actors – or whether it was simply a ‘indiscriminate scan attack’ which happened upon the supercomputer,” says Kevin Curran, professor of cybersecurity at Ulster University.

Worse still, they actively block repair shops from ordering and stocking parts. They are an abbomonation to the environment.

I call bullshit. I bought a replacement battery for my wife's iPhone 6 from iFixit. It was reasonably priced and it arrived in a couple of days. But don't just take my anecdotal evidence as proof of anything. How about a citation for this alleged blocking orders?
