Tell HN: My fingers are frustrated that my laptop does not autocomplete text
What a horrible realization!

I am just laying here trying to forget about war and typing some notes when I realized that my fingers were getting a bit lazy and I yearned for the laptop to just know what I wanted to type... like my phone almost always does.

That's disturbing to me in ways that I can't really articulate.

I think I am going to put the phone down more often moving forward.

I don't want to be suggested what to say based on some weird proprietary Markov algorithm or however they're doing it.

It's creepy.

(I've never really used a smartphone much in my life, I only just started using one regularly in the past few months.)
