Dude I was born in 2000 and I get so mad when I realize how true this is. Apps/“smart” phones might be regarded as the biggest double edged sword in the history of technology.

It literally feels like we are at a moment in history where we are evolving backwards by force. This will only worsen as the ipad babies grow older.

You will own nothing and be happy. You will also know nothing and be happy.

People thought the same thing about written language, that it would ruin everyone’s memory cause they could just write things down and wouldn’t have to go through the honorable effort of rembering everything

Although, to be fair, they didn’t have capitalism then so our similar worries might be more well founded lol
