Are You Raising Poisonous Bugs?!
The Old Squad Leader GuoTou was talking there.
Lu Xingshen listened quietly.
Actually, what Old Squad Leader GuoTou said isn't quite right. Take computers, for example—they're already widely used in civilian applications. The computers used by the National Academy of Sciences are specially configured, and the computational demands of some ultra-large-scale scientific research projects are all performed in the Galaxy Matrix.
and,
The development of the Galaxy Matrix was basically completed around the turn of the millennium.
Perhaps the Old Squad Leader GuoTou don't understand.
The instructors who taught them to integrate into modern life may not have told them these things, so they just assumed that the country still needed to concentrate its efforts on major tasks.
I habitually think about contributing what I can.
If they don't contribute anything, then they should tighten their belts and save money.
If each person saves a little, then millions of people can save a lot!
Lu Xingshen also experienced that era. Back then, when he was developing Mushroom Bomb in the Great Gobi Desert, that's how many scientists got their food.
Lu Xingshen had mixed feelings. He waited until the Old Squad Leader GuoTou stopped before saying, "Old Squad Leader, don't worry. These things are like rice and flour now, there's no need to worry about running out! Besides, the newer the equipment, the easier it is to operate!"
In fact, it's not just enough; there's practically an overcapacity!
The Old Squad Leader GuoTou waved his hand. "I know the instructor has already told us, but I just feel that we old folks don't deserve to use such good equipment."
After all, the better the equipment, the more expensive it is, right? We should try to save as much money as possible.
The Old Squad Leader GuoTou added, "Besides, newer equipment doesn't necessarily mean it's easier to operate, right?"
Old Man Lu retorted, "Then tell me, which things are more difficult to operate the newer they are?"
This is simply not in line with the laws of modern evolution! Old Squad Leader GuoTou rushed into the inner lounge and grabbed a TV remote, saying, "Hey, take a look at this thing? This looks like a TV remote! Why is it so complicated? There's also a set-top box remote, a TV remote... I still can't tell which one is which!"
Old Man Lu: "..."
Sorry, I can't tell either because I don't watch TV!
He was puzzled!
What's wrong with these TV manufacturers these days? Why make the remotes so complicated? A young person could probably figure it out at a glance, okay... even young people are sometimes completely lost when their set-top box malfunctions. Resetting the modem requires calling customer service. If there are elderly people using it at home... they probably make eight hundred calls a day to ask their kids for help with the remote! Old Man Lu quickly put the remote away. "I'll notify the after-sales team to replace the TV right away!"
Old Squad Leader GuoTou: "Why change it? Just tune to a fixed channel and get some sound! We mainly watch the news, and besides, we don't watch TV much these days, we mostly play on the computer!"
They were chatting when the student turned around again and said, "No, Old Squad Leader, my computer is lagging again..."
Old Squad Leader GuoTou: "Change the machine!"
I'd get annoyed if you said it eight hundred times a day!
Old Man Lu refused to believe it...
Even if this old desktop computer is old, the logistics department shouldn't be lagging like this in such a short time, right? Besides, when he opened the case earlier, he saw that most of the things inside were new— the Logistics Department isn't stupid; on the surface, they were going along with the wishes of these old heroes, but secretly they replaced everything with new stuff.
So it won't lag too much when it runs!
So Old Man Lu went to take a look...
This look was quite significant!
When he finally saw it clearly, he was so relieved that he almost choked on his breath!
Although this computer used a large monitor for the teacher's head, the main unit was quite powerful, so it ran Windows 10. Then, four antivirus programs were installed on the desktop—Tencent, Baidu, 360, and Kingsoft! And there were so many Baidu and 360-related programs that they practically filled the entire desktop! Old Man Lu's scalp tingled! What's wrong?
Is this some kind of monster breeding program on the computer?
Is this some kind of plan to cultivate a virus that surpasses the Millennium Bug?
Old Man Lu stood up, gasped, and asked, "Why did you install so much software?"
The student looked completely innocent. "The Old Squad Leader GuoTou said the computer needed to have antivirus software installed... and then I clicked on it and all these results appeared. Also, when I was browsing the internet, something suddenly popped up asking me to install it, and I thought it was something the computer was asking me to do, so I installed it."
Old Man Lu: "..."
Okay, he's convinced! These software vendors are awesome! He calmed himself down and said, "Get a new machine; I'll have someone fix this one for you!"
The uninstallation might not have been complete! Just format it, repartition, and reinstall! After explaining things to that student, it was lunchtime. The Old Squad Leader GuoTou immediately ushered them all out, telling them to hurry up and eat, "A different group will come this afternoon, so don't you dare sneak in! If I find out, you'll be banned from the internet for three days!"
He spoke sternly.
Clearly, someone had been committing this kind of offense before! Lu Xingshen wanted to laugh; it turned out they were all a bunch of elderly internet addicts.
After the Old Squad Leader GuoTou chased them away, he took out a white apron and sleeves from his seat and put them on. "Let's go to the cafeteria for lunch!"
Lu Xingshen, standing beside him, chuckled, "You're quite busy these days, aren't you? You're a computer teacher and you're also working in the cafeteria."
The Old Squad Leader GuoTou smiled sheepishly, "Flipping the wok is my specialty! It's just that there are a lot of these machines that I can't use, so I applied to serve everyone the food."
Lu Xingshen: "How are you all doing these days? I see there aren't many computers in the computer room. Are there many people who like to surf the internet? If you want to expand, I can arrange it for you."
Old Squad Leader GuoTou waved his hand. "No need, no need. There aren't actually that many people who like to go online these days, only about five or six hundred. The current computer lab can be used in shifts. We can't let them be online all the time! I've heard that being online all the time is bad!"
Lu Xingshen: "..."
All right,
This argument was very popular when the Internet was first becoming widespread.
They say the Internet is addictive, that indulging in frivolous pursuits leads to a loss of ambition—to borrow a phrase from Mr. Guo: haven't you seen so many people indulging in frivolous pursuits without any great ambitions? Ultimately, it's a problem of management style.
To condemn something outright is an extremely irresponsible and lazy approach.
It's like how many parents think that as long as they send their children to good schools, everything will be fine, and their children will definitely get into 985 or 211 universities.
There are many choices when it comes to life.
As long as you are ambitious,
The direction of development can be very diverse.
Thinking that those old ideas are still poisoning the minds of later generations, Lu Xingshen felt a little emotional. These years have developed too fast, and many things have not had time to settle and be refined over time, so many things are done in a very rough and crude way.
Old Man Lu snapped out of his reverie and asked with concern, "What are the others busy with?"
