A lot of downvotes. I can relate to it a little bit. During beginning of covid I was in SE Asia at airbnb that didn't have laundry machine - since in SE Asia you don't need it generally because there is so many cheap per kg laundry services around. When for the first month I had to hand wash my clothes I really appreciated having a laundry machine after moving to another airbnb that had one - you take some things for granted.
But no, I wouldn't want to hand wash my laundry more often. For the same reason probably I still prefer using a lighter when having a BBQ than a flint.
- vouaobrasil 3y agoYes, humans take many things for granted. That's why it's better to experience a lack of things sometimes because we are just wired to move onto the next thing. As for the downvotes, I don't mind. I try and present a critical view of technology, but I expect the downvotes because almost everyone here has the perspective that technology is a tool and progress is generally a good thing, which are two statements that I wholeheartedly reject.
