I think this is a horrible idea it's just gonna take so long and what if your a slow typer
Yes sadly this means emergency services will no longer be able to take your call because they got rid of their phones. If you really want to talk you'll have to book a Zoom appointment, so schedule your stabbings ahead of time.
Ok then I'm going to have to talk the guy who's gonna stab me and where gonna have to agree on a time see if he can fit me
Sounds like a skill issue. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Almost every normal human is a slow typer on a touchscreen. They don't blame touchscreens for that, because they like them and actually typing lots of text is irrelevant for those normal humans.
I've just watched "Idiocracy" yesterday. I didn't like how similar to the humanity of the future I am myself, and the use of IQ as some real measurement felt kinda idiotic, but - the general idea feels right.
I pretty much blame touchscreens for the downfall of humanity. But I guess I'm not "normal".
Only the loud social people who wouldn't survive without the help of various freaks (who solve disasters and predict crises and say "told you so") are normal. While those freaks should be grateful for being not completely useless for their normal society. Of course their usefulness is evaluated by the normal people's measure, which ignores disasters, crises, deep mistakes, structural faults and other such things. Because among normal social people every victory has many fathers and any defeat is an orphan (but they secretly suspect that those freaks who mitigated its harm are to blame).
The way for comfortable existence is knowing that they, normal people, are wise and kind and don't blame us for being the freaks we are. Though they are still a bit sore at us for all those problems in the reality they chose, like computer programs still not writing themselves and not understanding human language. But they are also magnanimous and forgiving.
