Fascinating that they just never accounted for that moment.
Although I guess it is incredibly out of the ordinary.
Feel free to ignore this question but what have you noticed going about life without your head in the screen? It must be a genuinely different view on things and I would like to get your perspective
Hard to say, as I've never had a smartphone so I don't really know what the difference would be. But I will say that I see a lot of people walking down the street with a phone to their nose, so... I'm probably seeing a lot of stuff they don't. :-)
The closest comparable thing is that I've gotten kind of hooked on listening to podcasts while doing chores. It's highly addictive and now I feel uncomfortable doing without. But when I do eschew the podcasts, I end up doing a lot of processing of my own thoughts that's probably pretty valuable. Kind of like shower thoughts, I guess.
