Like, there's an accelerometer so it can detect if the computer is being dropped and can freeze the hard drive to minimise damage.

Millions die every day. No one cares and the world moves on. Just because one person took advantage of the right people at the right time doesn't mean more than just that.
I personally, am relieved Jobs is dead. He was a self-entitled asshole who built one of the biggest examples of a modern day pseudo-cult. Maybe personal computing will move back to comparing products on technical capabilities rather than which is the shiniest and most expensive.

No. I don't. I really don't. I understand they are terrible, and I'm not happy at their happening, but ive never lost sleep or felt anything. 9/11 being an exception, but I had just been there.
Even Katrina though, I didn't really care. Do people really care? I've never seen anyone's life take even a stutter at any disaster except 9/11. I always thought people weren't being sincere and were just putting up a front. I guess I'm wrong? I wish the events did not happen, but it doesn't have any impact on my mood. I'm always pretty miserable, though. that might be why? I could also be incapable of such feelings. I could just have a coping mechanism. I tend to avoid things and not think about them as long as possible.
I felt nothing at the news Steve jobs died. Usually there is some shock value, but this was not unexpected.

On one end of the spectrum you have people worshipping Steve Jobs like a legend who just died, and on the other end of the spectrum you have people who laugh and act like they're glad he's dead.
I'll say this. I never liked Steve Jobs, but I never would have wished anything like this upon him. He didn't really do anything that innovative, he just made everything proprietary to make it seem innovative, and the few things that were innovative were based more on the work of other people than him. He was a good CEO and pioneer at best. With him gone, I just hope that Apple is able to move forward. I don't say these things because he has passed. I say these things because they're things I would have said about him yesterday and I'm not going to be a coward and change my words around simply because of this misfortune.
Steve was still a brilliant human being and it's a shame to see anyone die that young.

The reasons aren't always because of a pattern of it being true, though. It's usually through bias. People choose to see the things that reinforce their beliefs. Much of that is subconscious too, unfortunately. I don't believe I think the way I do because I'm special. It's because I do drugs. It allows me to cut away the bullshit.

Well recognizing non-verbal cues is different than understanding them. Combine that with depression and many non-verbal cues become mis-recognized as being negative.
