    This is a poor analogy. Those installed in Doge knew exactly the value and reason the systems. Processes, people, regulations and institutions they are deleting existed; they didn’t want them to as it was disadvantageous to their greedy fixation on omnipotence.

    It’s naive to pretend it’s not deliberate.

    Much of what we have learned about the human brain comes from injuries to its various parts.

    You learned about what ini files do by deleting them. Make backups and break stuff to learn. I’m just talking about computers, please don’t extrude this lesson to Doge.
