The good ole days.. I miss it. A while back our tv crapped out (imagine that, it was only a few years old. Remember when they would last 20 years?), and my hubby and stepson proudly came home one night with a smart tv. I dunno why, but I wasn't thrilled. Ever get a feeling with something? I don't trust the thing.
Right now I have a dumbed-down smart phone. I've had it a few years and it was bought used refurbished. I am hanging on to it for dear life. I dread the thought of having to get a new one, then having to obtain a college degree to run the thing. I spent days on my current one turning off anything smart on it. Right now I just use it for calling and texting, and occasionally pictures, that's it. No data. It does bounce off the home wifi but never use it. I don't trust it. For some reason I dislike that much power to be had or obtained by something in my hand.
Maybe it's just me and I'm old, but if my refrigerator started telling me what I need to go buy, it would freak me out. Yeah, I agree with Chris Evans on this.
