I'm fairly convinced that having to do things as you described was better for mental health as well. The always on, always connected lifestyle has big downsides

- montblanc 5y agoDriving with a map was better than how it is now? We're 10 years from having the damn thing drive itself for us. I suck at directions, I can imagine without the internet I would just avoid drives to places I wasn't familiar with and miss out on a bunch of things.
- willcipriano 5y agoYeah, you have to use a map but your kid only has to interact with the school bullies at school and you aren't temped to reach out to your college fling behind your wife's back beacuse you never see her bikini photos. Things have gotten better, but in lots of ways they have gotten worse.
- montblanc 5y agoHave no argument with you there, I'm not saying it was all a win. Mental health problems seem to be increasing and the internet is part (but probably not all) of the problem.
- jimbokun 5y agoYou would discover you are better at directions than you think, if you need to find places without a phone and GPS.
- basisword 5y agoYou suck at directions because you rely on GPS. Navigating is a skill like any other.
