…actually, why not?
Your life without a computer: what does it look like?
More postcards and personal letters. More in-person visits. More long conversations. More hours where “unreachable” is real.
More typewriters, Xerox, fax machines. More quiet evenings and comfortable silences, more of the Old World that disappeared.
No more computers? Time would slow down immediately.

Describe one habit that brings you joy.
Give your mind time to rest.
At least once a week, stay offline all day, go outside, and experience the world as it is. See the sky with your own eyes. Feel the sunlight on your skin. Experience the wind as it moves around you.
Talk to real people.
Figure out how to be human.
