I've been reading research on the gut micro biome for years and all this stuff related to it's effects on the brain and overall health. We joke, but I legit don't think we're too far from pro and pre biotic enemas becoming a regular treatment
Perhaps he knew exactly what he was doing
Yeah, exactly. A buzz in my pocket, pull out the phone, see a bunch of different distracting stuff vs glance at my wrist, know it's a casual message from a friend I can respond to later or in rare cases, something I need to deal with immediately. It's a lot less mental energy
Cheap but probably won't work I'm guessing?
If you really want a cheap smart watch there's a bunch of reliable ones worth looking into rather than getting something random on temu. I haven't tried the Pine Time but it looks good if you like fiddling with the tech.
If you can put up with Xiaomi they make a ton of different options. I used a Mi Band for a few years and it kinda did what I wanted it to do better than my current Wear OS watch does
For me personally, I want to limit interactions with my phone by reading notifications on my wrist, only allowing certain apps to send notifications through, and maybe sending a quick reply through the watch if needed.
That said, most smart watches now are overcomplicated bloat, it's all been downhill since the Pebble Time IMO
For real. Confirming the existence of any exo planet is a huge technological feat and yet now it's happening non stop. The first ever confirmed exo planet was 1995 and now we've got a catalog of almost 6,000 confirmed. Wild times!
In this world I suppose we'd start referring to people by last names more often
I feel like they've had this for a while but maybe the specific situation is different. I might also be getting confused with Tapas.
Years ago I was reading "Extreme Dog Owner" while it was being released and was blocked out of latest episodes. So when the artist stopped the series it took a while before I realized the last few episodes would never get unlocked for me. Sounds like the same situation? Minus the huge piracy warnings.
Luckily I had a friend who bought it already then just read on their device.

Smart alarms on a smart watch. Set a time window where it'll wake you up at an optimal time in your sleep cycle. Been using the one built into Sleep as Android for years, which another person also mentioned, but a lot of smart watches have smart alarms built in
Any recommendations for something like "Amusing Ourselves to Death" but written after the internet became mainstream?
Something recently had me thinking about the book "Amusing Ourselves to Death" that made me want to give it a re-read, and as relevant as the main ideas still are for today, I wondered if there is a more recent book that is just as well received on the topic of society's addiction to amusement.
