A computer can't function without an operating system

A total lie usually mentioned in computer textbooks when talking about operating systems. Older computers sometimes do not have an operating system, so this is totally a lie because these computers can still function. Also, even modern computers can make use of the Basic Input Output System (BIOS) to do some basic tasks such as viewing and changing the date.

School textbooks: "A computer can't function without an operating system!"
1930s computer operator: "wtf is that"

computer slave

Any person involved in information technology, information security, or gaming or your average millennial zombie who spends most of their waking hours on a computer for business, pleasure, or because they don't know else to do, having become completely handicapped by technology.

What happened to Dave? He is sitting at his computer surrounded by empty pizza boxes and energy drinks! - Yeah, he has become a computer slave because the new first person shooter game came out.

Computer View

In film, the shot where people are looking into the camera as if it were a computer.

My favorite part of the scene was the computer view the director used in the beginning.
