Fucking always-on connectivity and security problems caused by it are the main reason why things can't just work. You need to be updated or else.

I visited a friend not that long ago and he kept using Windows XP and The Bat and Opera around version 9. He knew every keyboard shortcut because he didn't have to relearn every few years. Never got hacked, I just wonder when his bank stops working because of TLS incompatibilities.
