A point & click graphical user interface is not automatically better than the command line interface.
I'm using a tool with both, but although I have to type up to 60 characters in the CLI, it takes only 5-10 seconds, & my fingers never have to leave the keyboard.
With the GUI to do the same thing, I needed to click on 34 things, each appearing in a different place I had to point at first, take my hands off the mouse to type 4 characters, then put my hand back on the mouse, taking 40-55 seconds.
If only Star Wars was released 2 years earlier, the "Space: 1999" creators might've called the series "Death Star Trek" instead.

Personally, I believe that "gender reveal" parties are BS, if nothing else then for being held between five & 50 years too early.
Genital development so powerful it burns down a forest. https://www.thedailybeast.com/border-patrol-agent-ordered-to-pay-dollar220k-after-starting-47000-acre-wildfire-at-gender-reveal-party

This is incredible. There's a CMD SuperCPU for sale on eBay right now. Bidding started at 99 cents, and it's now up over $2,000. https://www.ebay.com/itm/CMD-SuperCPU-Accelerator-Super-CPU-Creative-Micro-Designs-Commodore-64-128-C64/142951092910
The SuperCPU is a Commodore 64 accelerator in an oversize cartridge. To put the bids in perspective, from 1997 to 1999, CMD was selling them for $199 without RAM expansion (which this one seems to be) up to $379 with the maximum of 16 MB.
uspol, voting
Voter registration deadlines are coming up rather quickly. If you think you're already registered to vote, double-check & make sure, because voter registration purges are actually happening.
If your response is, "If voting actually changed anything, they'd make it illegal," then everything every state has done since Shelby County v. Holder (gutting the VRA) should assure you: It does, & they are.
Or don't vote, young people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0e9guhV35o
