I don't want to convert to the Amish. But, we are definitely reaching a point where I'd like to revert to... Idk. Late 1990-2000s, maybe early 2010 technology. And ditch all this AI, surveillance bs of the late 2010-2020s!!!

    Idk man, I can play pc games on my phone, and they run really good. Or better yet, PS2 games run like a hot-damn emulated on my phone, so instead of lugging my PS2 everywhere I just put a controller in my bag and I can play Colosseum: Road to Freedom any damn where I want!

    True emulation is fun, but soon phones will all be locked down by google/apple, plus they're total spyware. I'd rather not have them.

    Old pixels with graphene will only last so long, new future phones won't allow it.
