i was thinking about why i like #eink screens so much.

i just like pixel-perfect black-and-white ui. ui should be as simple as possible, without getting in your way.

that's why i like editing text in vi. no status bars, no tabs, no menus.

same goes for my choice of a bitmap font. it's just crisp and high-contrast.

that's why i run openbsd. it has all things that are important for me: spleen, vi...

low-tech feels simple and reliable. feels like you are in control. it just works

...but maybe it's all because i want to extend my childhood experience with 8-bit computers :)
