kaiba spoilers, armchair philosophy 

kaiba's ending is an assertion that gnostic, hegelian idealism fails to account for the material conditions we live in, that it does not "respect" the world for what it is and how it shapes us, and that following universal spirituality without acknowledging the material world may very well lead us to unreasonably justified mutual destruction.

the early episodes show us ways our material conditions impact our identities and individuality to underpin this.

I bought this macbook in 2014, which would give it roughly a 4 year run before I had a real issue (the dead pixels). It was on student discount, so roughly $200 per year of service.

I kind of wish it would have lasted longer? It's the best laptop I have ever used, hands down, but 4 years is kind of short.

apple wants to charge me $130 to service the battery in this macbook air. I can't imagine what they will charge to fix the dead pixels in the screen.

I think it's finally time to replace...

god, you'd think after the early 2000s advertisers would realize that anything that automatically plays video or makes sound when you open a page is almost universally reviled by users.

but no, we get stuck with autoplay videos because Facebook inflated numbers to look good to investors.
