The past couple of days, I've really felt the pull to disconnect from technology. Even to the point where I'm looking to acquire a flip phone to replace my personal iPhone, replace my watch with a digital (or maybe even analog if I can find a decent water resistant one) watch, purchase records to listen to, etc.This desire has rolled over into my social media existence also. I thought maybe it was just a mood, but it's been weeks now and I still just don't "have it" anymore. Even for the 'don.

@joinme An interesting watch might be the TTGO watch.It's dumb but smart at the same time. Dumb because it's not about tracking you but smart because it can be programmed. I only just got mine and i've done very little with it but it's pretty cool concept anyways.https://www.tindie.com/products/lilygo/lilygo-ttgo-t-watch-2020/They have a few other models with more bells(like GPS and such) i just got the basic one since it's the known compatible model for the c64 watch.I'm not sure how water resistant it is...

(It should be noted that I cannot disconnect entirely as professionally I still require technology, at least for the next two years - which is when the partner said I'd either be bought out or we would shut everything down. BUT... personally, I'm disconnecting.)

@Tay0 How about a picture of a video of the scale?!(Also, I'm going to assume that's another way of saying "Not much, don't let the door hit you on the ass" LOL)

@joinmeNot at all. I'm gonna miss you but this is my only media. I just don't have time for anything else. There seems to be an ebb and flow here. People change instances, move on altogether, don't toot for months or just interact very sporadically. You may miss us and come back. You never know. I never seem to, anyway.

@Tay0 as Mike can tell you, my leaving and coming back has been going on for years. So the likelihood that I'll be back is fairly high yet :-P

@joinme Yep, if she doesn't come back I'm going to start calling her at weird hours of the night and making illogical demands until she does. "I demand you publish the latest Garfield comic on three out of four tires on a 1920 Indian Scout motorcycle.""I demand you increase the thrust of a PGM-11 Redstone to Pi"Etc. You get the idea. She'll be back in no time.@Tay0
