  • Author admits smartphones are ubiquitous, and doesn’t at all consider, in a hypothetical situation where everyone unanimously agreed to stop using them, where all this e-waste will go?

    Also, how do you disillusion the millions of people that use them religiously?

    I get the sentiment, but only a significant technologically literate society would really appreciate the need for greater control over their devices and actually possess the skills needed to modify and configure them.

















  • When I got my first car, since I hadn’t driven for many years before that moment, whenever I drove, I felt like I was moving at superhuman speeds. Like, walking is slow, cycling is around 15-25km/h on average, yet driving is 50km/h and higher, on most streets where I drove.

    Having a human-scaled life, means not moving at such unusual speeds, that sure, are normal in the 20th century, but common, haven’t we proven that bigger isn’t always better, faster isn’t always beneficial?
