I like how this flips the narrative from: "I need to make my impact on the future by leaving a child!" to "I can also make an impact on the future by deciding not to leave a child here!"

Get out of that, uh, jabroni outfit!
Depends on where you live. In Japan, most of the time it's either way too hot to hang out on the balcony or way too cold. In Europe it's fine in many places for most of the year.
Some of it also has to do with rent prices which can be higher if you have a balcony.
Also, and again in Japan: There is an emergency balcony exit in some apartment buildings in case a natural disaster hits. It's probably easier to climb your way down a bunch of balconies with holes in the ground than a blank wall

We can argue as much as we want about whether moore's law covers technological development in general or be pedantic like good old fundamental Christians and only read what the words say.
The bigger problem is that we have reached the era of what we could tentatively call "wal s'eroom". Thanks to enshittification (another one of those slippery words!) I predict that technological progress reverses from now on by 50% every 2 years.
Please take context into account. Please.

Sad to hear that veteran cannot think of more than one person.
Ubuntu's role in the ecosystem is important. They are good at first luring people into using linux. Then the users get pissed off of Ubuntu, because of Snap, ads, or whatever random crap they know from Windows. Finally, they move on to better options, be it Arch, Debian, or Puppy. Ubuntu ensures they don't all stick to the same
Thought the same but with Queen
"I know, they all seem braindead and not entirely trustworthy, and they don't know how to articulate themselves. But I talked with them, and they told me they want something good. Also, YOU trust ME, right? So trust me bro, even if they seem weird and what they say doesn't make sense, I think they are good!"
He would probably have died of natural causes anyway by now. But just disappearing for a few decades might be a sign someone wasn't happy with his bodily integrity? Maybe he chills below one of the Miami skyscrapers now or whatever people in his business do in such cases.
Still looks ripped under that shirt. Let him sit there for a few years and see how that changes!
