+hgbn Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 The last couple of months have been a weird experience for me. No phone, no web and no TV. effectively cutting the access to the outside world. I can't say that I missed it a lot except for this place. The time off the web revived one of the other hobbies I have. Scale aircraft modelling a hobby I have neglected for the last past 5 years or so. It also revielled what a time robber the web actually is So I have decided not to fall back to the old habit of turning on the PC the first thing to do, when comming home from work. Quote

+Gepard Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 Welcome back in the digital world. But you are right, the real life is outside of the web. Quote
+JonathanRL Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 But you are right, the real life is outside of the web. If that was correct, you would be a figment the web created, and not a living breathing person and vice versa. The Web is simply another interface for real life. Quote
zzzspace Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 Do it often with remote-area work, don't miss anything but the outstanding humour and wit of online friends. That can be way too much fun. Being online all the time is one way of doing things and getting off regularly for extended periods provides valuable contrast. When I come back, first thing I usually notice is the people so plugged-in they have lost perspective and most of their sensibilities. Especially with regard to obsessive socio-political massdebate. Divide and conquer bitchez. Is your fav false-saviour going to be; the feckin donkey, or the feckin elephant? Just ask your preferred major media outlet (all owned by the same people BTW), and they'll tell you just what to think, at all times - for 'free'. Lose-Lose Hope things pick up for you. ;) Quote
