With all the war news recently one thing that has come up is how various countries can expect to get cyber attacked where everything from basic utilities to having access to information can be disrupted. That can mean no power to your home or not even having the ability to check for news updates with an Internet connection. While that would be bad of course, I am kind o surprised how for some basic items it seems like people have forgotten how to function without an Internet connection.
For example, hearing people wondering how they will take down notes without the use of their computer if all the power is down. At first I had to do a double take and wonder if that was a joke of sort as using a pen and paper is still there. Another semi odd one was people expressing they can’t exercise without the use of an instructional video that they usually watch. I would wonder there wouldn’t going outside and walking be a form of exercise?
As convenient as tech may be, I think this is a reminder that it can still be beneficial to try and do things manually from time to time or enjoying the simple things in life as they say. Because you never know when stuff like this. It’s almost like having to camp and cook everything manually as an example versus only knowing how to cook pre-made meals with microwave.
