tired of #fail

Gillian Densmore
Somethings going wrong.
I've been thinking about this quite a bit:
Wtf happend to make tools I use on a day- to day basis suck?
Launch fire fox hit google have fire fox take forever to load pages, when the damn things do load there full of  flash adds, or half the previusly prety damn good hits has gone to shit
Want to find that cool ebook format you remember was on wiki: half the pages are gone.
Want (software here) to not get feature creep-
Like- somewhere Adobe thinks not only do I get to only rent software but there software has a identity chrisis: photoshop  thinks it should do a meh job of tweaking  video rly? I thought  photoshop just ment to make a certain other densmore look like he wone the nobel prize for something.
Want to find a good ol' games or cheesy movies? good luck!
 welcome to the no-net. This is like the internet- but DMCA or some lawyer god or knows what says: oh no can watch a horrible goofy mpvie or BBC streaming because of some restarted reason.
RLY?
What happnd to when these kinds of tools were useful? Who in there right mind LIKES not being able to have computer tools- and weby-web be epic fucking fail.

Wheres my technology, where's my tools that work, and are fun to use?

Software developers write software because they profit or because they want
to advance the greater good.  In either case, it is not just for you.  If
you want to see better software, grab a Linux distribution or a free editor
& compiler toolchain and start hacking.

Hmm can it be 5u or 6u? At that rate we might need a D30 and a dungeon master.

If it's a proffit thing--then how on earth can 'firefox' get to be such a unwieldy bloated behomoth- even after loosing 10% of it's installed base  (if the wc3 stats are anything to go by)- as to labor of love? yeah I guess some people might like looking at what seems to be the jiberish that is Java or C++ .

Evidence of Firfox RAM problems?
I have right now 3 tabs open on version 22.0 that I rolled back to. It's now taking up less Ram than- 24 or might be 26--ie the version the auto-update installed.
This version is as far as windows task manager is concerned wants 5-10 megs of ram. That's small compared to the 15megs of ram with a fresh start the new version was asking for. I don't know where in the pipeline something is causing that issue. The doodad that sends a crash report asked for my input on happend I tride to susinctly explain the dang thing crashed while pulling up netflix with  a scary sounding error.
