AngryCommieKender, 28 days ago Would you think you’d be better off without electronics? No. It isn’t a zero sum game. Are you saying you’d rather live in a world where clocks were mechanical and you had to take them to a repair shop every now and then? Some of them, yes. Is your life worse because watchmaker is not a common trade anymore? Yes. I wasn’t able to get my great grandfather’s pocket watch repaired.
