RE: Paper Or Digital: The Power Of Reading
@zheimberg Same here! Just went back to school and got digital books... annoying, tedious. Have to log into site every time to access them since there only rentals. I agree about writing down vs. typing. I remember way more when I had write notes and such. Maybe it's the act of forming the letters with your hands? I like tech, but the reality of most of the technology floating around is that most of it isn't needed. I mean, smart-phones. What do most people do with their smart phones anyway? Take pictures of themselves or take pictures of someone in peril while they watch and record. Does someone really need an Alexa to retrieve a movie or change a channel or order crappy food? No, you don't. But hey, that's where we're going!
Wall-E is probably going to come true. But there won't be any floating chairs. Before long, humans will be too overweight to move around, so humans will just stay in their houses and do everything virtually. Robots will deliver food, clean the house, wipe dirty asses...
