I still this think is ridiculous. I'd be surpised if anyone would even reduce using any kind of technology like smartphones and stuff, just because your little cute essay.
Technology is awesome, it's the thing that differs us from other animals and make awesome things possible, like life-saving and life-simplifying transplants.
It's just pathetic to think about a world with almost no technology, just because you think it's some kind of bad.

These kinds of technologies are very good, and it's one of the most beautiful things humans ever create in the technology domain.
What I was talking about, and then I also urge you again to read my posts, what I am blaming actually, is that kind of useless crap Apple and Sunsung tries to sell you.

I actually like my iphone. When I need directions to get somewhere that I've never been I either look it up on the computer or ask my Siri to save time on driving all over the place to find the place. So, you see that technology is good for somethings. And if we didnt have computers how the fuck would doctors and people who work in fields that require testing and analyizing what they find be able to do their jobs? How could scientist do their work? How could the people who make medicines be able to do what they do? How would we be able to keep in touch with family and friends that don't live in the same city,state, or country as we do? How would we be able to get help on a homework assignment like an essay if we aren't aloud to take home resources from a class we don't have(that's happening to me right now)? How would we be able to type up essays that our teachers tell us to do? Think about that for a while and then reply back.

My stupidity? If we didn't have the technology we have today people would be dying from every disease known, we wouldn't have the first clue about what space looked like, we wouldn't have the advanced medicines that we have today, we wouldn't have bombs to help aid in war, we wouldn't be able to do much with out the technology we have today so your essay proved nothing.

It's fine, he can call it stupid if he wants,I honestly don't care. And his essay is his opinion as well which I find very invaild and stupid but I am not gonna be a complete bitch about it and use a picture like he did. No point in going down to his level.

Do you know these people ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Curie
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Curie
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustave_Eiffel
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Watt
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youri_Gagarine
If you do not, then I urge you to go read anything you can about them.These are certainly the most brilliants physicians, doctors, architects, presidents, aventurers, engineers and scientifics of our civilization.Their decisions/inventions/adventures were the most crucial ones for the Humanity.All these peoples did something that really changed the Mankind in a better way.And all these peoples did it without any help from any computer, smartphone, or anything else.And these are just the most famous, the bigger ones, but there is at least two dozen of important people, no matter their domains, that actually changed the mankind while living in the past, and without any actual technology.They acomplished great things with nothing.

And now do you know these things ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegraphy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_%28message%29
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspaper

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagecoach
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boat
If not, then I also recomend you to read about them.
These were common things, that people used in all-day life or so, at different periods of the past.They were living very well with that.They weren't complaining.

So I hope that now you can realize how life was easy in the past, and maybe more sweet than nowaday's one ? No pollution, no useless technology, but a fine life...
A fine life...

I know who those people are and I know what those things are but what you don't seem to realize is WITHOUT THE ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY WE HAVE TODAY WE WOULDN'T HAVE THE MEDICINES AND VACCINES THAT WE HAVE, WE WOULDN'T HAVE VIDEOGAMES, AND WE SURE AS HELL WOULDN'T HAVE TO AGRUE OVER STUPID SHIT LIKE THIS.
I am done here.

That's because they didn't have them (computer, smartphones) at their time, I'm pretty much fucking sure they would've used them if they had the chance to.

So you say people can't "accomplish great things" anymore, because of technology? Technology HELPS to invent things, it simplifies everything, our life as well.

This is getting even more ridiculous, your arguments are just... well, not that smart and invalid... and that's putting it mildly.

Technology does not hurt anyone (except for weapons ofc.), even if Apple or Samsung or any big brand are trying to sell us "shit", it's the people's decision if they buy this "shit". If they have the money to spare for (according to you) useless stuff; let them be, not your problem.

@Supernova : Wtf.You just seems not to understand that.If you knew who were these peoples, these things, you would knew that in the past we have accomplished alot of things, of architectural progress, scientific reasearches, medical advances and even vaccins, and without the help of all these technlogies of nowadays.That was just to give you an exemple that we CAN accomplish great things without the help of all our nowadays tech.

@Stefan : I didn't said that today people cannot accomplish great things anymore.That post was just toshow to Nova that we can do great things without much nowadays technology, and infact nowaday's tech is just an extra, a luxury that we can not use, but that won't happen ikr & btw I totally support medical and scientific progress & technologies.

The original goal of this topic was to explain why all these smartphones, phones and tablets, readers, how all these technologies are useless, and that we can do without them.
I am not denouncing technology in medical or scientific reaserches.I even support that.These are great things.
