Hand over the robot to the programmers!
Hi cjl2625,

I noticed you had an issue with people rivet-popping. In particular, you called them barbarians.

While it's true that rivets have been around for quite a long time (archaeological findings date rivet use back to the bronze period) that does not make the people who implement them barbarians. In fact, it typically implies the opposite. Rivets are an extremely useful and lightweight fastener system that have allowed for a number of technological advancements to occur!

Hope this has helped pop your feelings about those of us who use rivets.

Best Regards,
RM
