There are some technological advances that are beneficial. I can track my deliveries with my phone, I can look at weather radar anytime and get weather warnings, and I can text anyone anytime.
BUT.
FedEx always says my package will be delivered tomorrow yet it’s 600 miles away and I know it’s at least 2 days away.
Spam calls and texts have made phones as troublesome as they are worth.
Searching the Internet for a topic is the worst it’s ever been. 95% of what you get as a result is totally unrelated. And 99% of what’s on the internet is just intended for 5 seconds of cheap entertainment.
Autospell has gone in the shitter. I’ve had it replace common words with words I’ve never even heard of and had to look up.
My GPS of 20 years ago is a hundred times better than modern GPS’s that send me on tiny cow roads instead of keeping me on a 4 lane road because it thinks the narrow windy cow road is faster.
Amazon used to be a good source to obtain things at a good price. But now it’s filled with overpriced crap and you have to do a lot of price checking.
TV. 500 channels of surround sound 4K crap. And now your 5 shows you did watch for free are on 5 separate subscription services you can each obtain for a nominal fee.
Flying. Used to be fun flying. Direct flights, good food and service and you knew within reason your flight would be on time.
I want a printer and scanner for my pc that has nothing to do with telling me it can’t contact the manufacturer to let me print or scan. Just print the damn documents without telling me no it needs to connect to HP or Epson.
There’s more. For later.
