[Steem talk] Driver error

Familiar shit isn't it? Yeah right. Why would operating system turn off the driver if the printer is not connected? Same shit happen in our #steem world.

I've been having a hard time when I did a transition switching from English content blogger to become a Chinese blogger. My follower started to unfollow me. Not only that, some of my real life good friend also stop upvoting me. You know what? They are not at fault? It's the output I fed them not compatible with their input, and therefore window shuts down almost everything to avoid "blue screen" which is fairly embarrassing.

Back to reality, we are all human. Sometimes we just can't have the best of both world. By simply switching language will not do any good to our profile, considering this is blockchain, everything we written here can be permanent. Don't you think what I say is wrong, because even if there's an edit button or delete button we can use, it does not mean the document is deleted or removed from the blockchain. Those buttons merely make a change to the permalink and stopped the content to appear on browsers front end. It can still be visible to others when you dig down to block explorer.

This said, if we screw up a relationship, it can be permanent damage. It works with the blockchain, it will work with our brain. These record will be "remembered" forever until one day the chain is broken.

I am back to English content for many months now, people whom unfollowed me, remain unfollow. Damage has been done, driver were removed from their operating system. Think it through my friend, don't piss your follower off. Sometimes it not about language, could be some topic that people does not agree on. I know we can't possibly installing every drivers to our operating system for one lucky printer, just like we can't please everybody in reality. All I am saying is, know your main audience and stay close to them. Install a driver, stick to the printer. If the printer is dead, don't remove the driver, get a new printer and adds up the new driver. Who knows one day the old printer driver may just save your life.
