Absolutely not

Edit: edited the post and now it works
No u
Which model did you get? I wanted one for some time now, but I really feel nervous about the screen just deciding to go the way of the dodo after 2 years and leaving me with a brick.
If the story is good, you won't notice the page count. If the physical size is what scares you the most, maybe an e-reader or reading app on your phone/tablet can alleviate that.
And remember - you don't owe a book anything. If it sucks, just drop it. There are many more compelling stories out there worth a read.
Already a thing Moby Dick but translated into emojies
Edit: Seems like Internet Archive has a free copy https://ia801807.us.archive.org/32/items/emojidick/emojidick.pdf
I disagree even with fax machines being removed. It's a redundancy that doesn't use the internet, but telephone lines, and as such has value.
Re-reading Frankl's "Man's search for meaning".
OP stated:
For pretty much the entireity of our existence, we didn't have borders. [...]
Please point me towards a part of our existance where we didn't have any types of borders. I deliberatly went all the way back to our beginnings as a species to point out that even then borders existed in some form.
As for the "shift and flow" part, I clearly stated:
[...] We just evolved the means to make them somewhat permanent. [...]
So, what exaclty is there pseudo-intellectual in my statement?
Edit: Here is a source to back up my claims.
Alexander C. Diener, Joshua Hagen. Borders: a very short inteoduction (2012), page 19, bottom half:
The earliest humans lived within small bands of nomadic foragers, know as hunter-gatherers. Migrations of these groups were generally patterned by changing seasons and enviromental conditions that affected the availability of food and other resources. Given their nomadic way of life, one might assume these early peoples lacked notiins of borders, territoriality, or land ownership. Yet research on contemporary hunter-gathere groups strongly suggests that these prehistoric humans possessed surprisingly elaborate tertitorial arrangements.
The passage isn't very long and anybody can sail the high seas to read for themselves.
There are exceptions, as with anything in life, but it seems that borders did in fact exist since the dawn of humans.
Disagreed. Animals have teritories, which are essentially borders. We just evolved the means to make them somewhat permanent.
Doesn't mean we have to keep it that way for the rest of our existance as a species.
Don't you feel sorry for all the data that won't be centered now?
