Live in the past, is mine. I will listen to things over and over because some songs or even podcast episodes, rewind me back to times where I felt comfortable in. I do sometimes poke my head out to see where things are currently in the present, but nothing around really makes me gravitate to anything current-day. But, then I just go back to my hole in living in the past.

People used to tell old people to get over it about them remembering things as they were all of the time. I’m understanding why they do that. Sometimes the present really truly sucks.

    What about kids who edit videos on a phone. Laptops exist too you know, and the editing process would be a lot more enjoyable.

      GenX and Millenials are the only two generations who are technically literate to know that. Your average GenZ or Alpha or whatever never learned to use a computer so it’s less scary to do it on a phone.

        And then there’s also the extra friction. You would need to transfer the video files to the computer before you can even start. If you edit on the phone, all the files are already there, which is nice.

        You could wait a few hours for the cloud to finally sync, or you could just go through all the USB-C cables that don’t support reasonable data transfer rates… either way, there are some serious bottlenecks in the process. Once you get past those, it gets better, but I guess all of that is enough to deter many people from trying.
