I don't. Or, I like the concept of a computer, and I like what we can do with them, but I don't like the implementations, especially of software:
1: Make something half-arsed, using software parts you don't even know how they work.
2: Try it in the real world, on real people.
3: When things inevitably break, in the best case just being annoying, but often harming privacy, don't even apologize, just cobble together a fix (not rarely introducing new problems), and call it an "update".
4: Repeat from step 2.
Maybe somewhat exaggerated, but not by much... Hardware is marginally better, due to the incentives that come with it not being updatable in the same way, but still it's not good. As you know.
I have programmed microcontrollers in Assembler, long ago. I knew what they were doing, bar any hardware flaws. I liked those projects, but it's of course completely impractical to do anything like a desktop OS that way. More advanced programming languages, libraries, etc. are a double edged sword. I'm of the opinion that we trust computers too much in modern society.
