(In advance, I apologize if this seems unnecessarily harsh, but it is description of a real event and the thought process of younger me) Unrelated, but in 2012 or something like that, I was out walking, on my way to a meeting. I literally stopped mid walk, and turned another direction, went to a store and bought an iPhone. My, at the time, state of the art Samsung galaxy S3 had just prevented me from answer an incoming call due to a software bug. As the S3 froze and then crashed, a crushing realization hit me; what I was holding wasn't a phone, but something else. I was even a poor student at the time, but due to engagements, I was completely dependent on my phone working, or as I then realized: "Having a phone".
