If you're too attached to tech, why are you on an internet forum about a computer game?

I voted no. Technology is a good thing, and you're in danger of turning a good thing into a bad thing through some flawed and misconstrued ideas about the world. Much the same as society has turned a set of basic human instincts into a taboo, for reasons that are totally beyond me.

So what, I've never lit a fire with a flint and some dried leaves? It's not a skill that many people need anymore. There aren't any basics, we learn what we need to in the era within which we live. I hardly think Lancelot of the Lake knew how to drive; instead, he probably knew how to ride. Those who seek to label technology as a bad thing while using the same technology to convey that view probably have some quite serious personal issues to deal with. Finding your lives too uninteresting, so you focus on the lives of others? If that's not the case, mind your own business yes?

Cool if you want to be a badass and run people over who aren't paying attention to traffic because of their phone or whatever. Just don't make a distinction between somebody not paying attention because of their phone and someone not paying attention because they're talking to their friend next to them. There's literally no difference, but if you get sent to prison for dangerous driving, I wont be shedding a tear either. To me, both are just another form of natural selection.
