Does anyone else get as excited about software updates as I do
When I see a notification on my computer,
I am compelled to address it.
What can be greater
than fixing problems?
Don’t you want to modernize yourself?
Don’t you want to fix your problems?
Don’t you want to cull vulnerabilities?
Don’t you want to make yourself more secure?
What can be less harmful than adapting to new methods?
Don’t you want to be fulfilled?
Don’t you want to thwart attackers?
I see a software update, and I am excited—
that I can experience something better,
Have a better experience with a product than I previously had,
That things can only get better,
That I can be more up to date,
That I can better myself without doing anything,
That I can improve myself with a single click.
I can feel meaningful—
that something I use is being improved.
I’m not left behind.
I’m better than people who haven’t updated.
I’m up to date.
I’m current.
I’m unstoppable.
