Digital technology isn't helping us live better lives; it is creating a layer of abstraction that distances us from reality. Listen to your body, look at the world.

How are we defining tech here. in like 1850 or so, machine-woven textiles were still pretty new and cool. It was like 3d printing only it killed a lot more poor/black/poor and black people

Anyway pretty sure all my textiles are machine woven except for that scarf grandma knitted for me

I love you grandma

You should have got them a victorinox cybertool. It's like a swiss army knife for nerds with tiny screwdrivers and chip pullers.

It costs more than $30 and is a terribly sad corruption of a swiss army knife. Like a swa is already awkward, don't make it worse with a usb drive and nerd pliers.

I'm still waiting for wired clothes and shoes that harness static and kinetic energy to charge batteries and provide a full body gestural interface for AR glasses that stream facial recognition info so even you obsolete, off the grid, pre-gestalters are tracked and monitored at all times by a 1000 subveillant eyes.
