Life without technology

[srinikethan]

cant even imagine life without technology..!! now a days technology is one among our family...!!

[European Central Bank]

Do I feel like a better person for having smart phones and the internet? Hard to answer. I think I would be more productive and maybe happier without it. Billions of people got by fine in the past without it. Maybe school kids should be sent on tech free weeks to give them some space to breathe.

Imagine yourself without technology, what could you have been and what's doing?
 

I lived in the woods for 2 months last summer.. i don't need to imagine anything.

Some of us live life .. and some of you fantasize about it.
Not surprising you all live in a fantasy delusion devoid of reality around here.
utterly oblivious to the context of the situation and clueless of what the public thinks of "crypto".

or.. some of you know but play dumb (AKA: dishonesty)

A life without technology is a life without the capacity to produce technology; in other words you'd effectively be like any other animal.  So there's no point in worrying about it, you wouldn't even have the mental faculties to contemplate it given the scenario were true.

It would essentially involve scavenging for food and water, and hoping that no stronger animals--of which there may be plenty, as you have no technology to defend yourself with--come to make a meal out of you.  Agriculture, controlled fire, even a measly rock tied to a stick: all forms of technology that you would have to go without.  Forget computers and telecommunication, those would've never been created in the first place.  Your entire existence would be "find food, find water, find nice climate", and if none were available, you'd migrate.  Can't bare cold weather, no fur and no clothes (another form of technology,) so you'd have to move where the weather was nice, like birds.  Except you'd have to leg it: no wings, no wheels.  Maybe you get lucky and find an area which is nice all year round, lots of water, lots of food.  So more humans start populating these areas, start coming in from other places on the planet, crowd it up.  They eat and they eat, multiplying the population, until all the food is gone.  With the food shortage comes starvation; your once mostly docile neighbors turn on you and eat you, or you eat them, or you migrate again and hope to find the ideal conditions once more, perhaps starving along the way, or dying from dehydration (can't take the water with you, containers don't form naturally, nor would you be smart enough to find any container-like object to use to carry with you.)  Maybe you wind up having to eat one of your kids to make the trip, assuming you bred; animals do it all the time.

Or maybe we're talking about a situation where humans had the capacity to implement technology but the world was in such extremely awful condition that nobody could actually use any of it, maybe like everyone's slowly dying from nuclear radiation.  That'd be pretty nasty too.  But it's a very simple feat to imagine a world without technology, just take a look at how animals live out in the wild.  That'd be you: just another dumb, barely sentient creature trying to survive and procreate, largely unaware of the nature of your own existence, living off pure primal instinct.

Anyway I prefer the time line where humans have technology.  The alternatives sound absolutely awful.

I guess I live in a cave with no light and hunting animals around me to feed me

life without tech would be better than today.. because people dont have any face to face conversation and respect each other today..

[leowonderful]

I'd be a man in his house that has nothing to do because computers = life.

[neinnein125]

It is impossible for me to think. My whole life is all about tech.

[Dagwanoenyent]

If you must, you will survive without meat and milk..
Many people don't have enough food everyday and they are still happy.
Technology is just a luxury for the third world..

I think we would all eventually create some type of technology. We would find ways to make our life easier and tasks.
Much the same as we do today. So I think there would always be some type of technological advance in our life no matter what time period we were in.

Imagine yourself without technology, what could you have been and what's doing?
 

Most likely running from the flesheaters and search for toilet paper.

I can't communicate with my loveones abroad and will still use snail mail.

Life would be very different without technology. I'm pretty sure half the people in the world would go insane, because they cant live without technology. The advantages would be a simpler life, no having to worry about people hacking accounts, no having to worry about E-mails. Other advantages would be less obesity because there would be no T.V and video games kids (and Adults would actually have to get up and do things). Now the disadvantages would be it would be hard to get in touch with others because there would be no phones, there would be no food in the stores. We would have to go back to living off the land, and animals. Really life would just be different, not bad, but not exactly good. Just different.

[bitbunnny]

If there were no technology the whole world would collapse. Nowdays everything is based on technology, every field of our lives so it's very hard to imagine how it would be again like it was 50 or 100 years ago.

[xompkins]

For me I will find something to do ; make a creativity
We don't have to begging a lot to live inside technology because sometimes its make us apart

[fuathan]

You can live with technology and with nature in Canada!.. You can have both and no need to renunciate one of them...

[jak1]

Yes but without electricity, gas, and all modern facilities it ll be horror at beginning. You must solve a lot of questions, elementary : food,water,rope and some kind of home

If you left your pc, you will have more time for sport and for family!

Mybe we can left from our pc but our mind cant do it and it will dont let us focus other things , i think i cant leave from technology.

Life without technology!

I would be Reading a good book. If you don’t know what book to read, go to a library, get some suggestions, browse the stacks, and just start somewhere.

Go to the park. Sit on a bench and read or just contemplate.

Take a course. Learn to cook. Learn a new language. Read a book and learn something you didn’t know or know how to do.

The only way anyone could ever be bored is if they are afraid and bored. Don’t be afraid.

Don’t be afraid to try new things and you will never be bored...

Youngs can't live without technology
