Sometimes I wonder if people will one day wake up and just ditch all the tech. That's seems to be the only way to be out of this mess.
yes but there is helpful tech! We’re just over focused on SaaS and now AI (new SaaS).
I do find myself enjoying my computer / phone less these days though.
That's like waiting for domesticated animals to walk of the farm by themselves. Mess resolves itself the same way throughout history when different camps within the elite start saying enough. But there is a process just like abolishing slavery or getting kings to hand over money printing to the central bank. Wasn't driven by the plebs. It takes time because the different camps have to align. The parasites get reigned in eventually because they are in the minority camp.
Hard disagree. Societal change and more inventions are needed, not a degrowth attitude.
Lol that would lead to billions of deaths
I know milenimals who know how everything works but only check messages every 2 weeks and dont answer if anyone calls. Might play a game once per month, might watch one movie per week.
One guy boots up his pc, looks at one website, closes the tab, closes the browser, shuts down the pc and switches the monitor off. I have to admit the technology looks terrible if used like that.
