Back in the day, I knew what I would get from ASUS and their AURA tech. Pretty simple, just choose what you want and go. My LEDs did what I wanted, it was simple. But no… no they said. Instead we want you to download most of a gig of bullshit to do the same thing, but with extra fucking steps.
I’m pretty sure my light controlling software is now tracking me. I’m not sure if the pattern of my LEDs are watching me or not.
How the shit did we let this come to pass? Why do we let these monstrosities into our life?
I’m part of the problem, I know. I just want my lights to do what I tell them to.
I find it far less tiring than navigating frustrating UIs. Modern GUI programs are in the most part awfully designed, slow and ugly.
For most things, and specially tasks like configurations, I prefer to copy paste a command and be done with it.
