Through my phone app. I’m trying to figure out what works best for me with writing and posting. I mean, obviously, my phone is the best choice because it’s with me at almost every waking moment. I am a manager so I need to have it available always. I have my desktop but then I have to have to the time and quiet to write something. Then I have my laptop, which I can take but is so bulky to have to carry around. So here I am, trying the app.
Technology has changed so much since I was a child. I was there when home computers became a thing. I was there for atari, Coleco, Sega, Nintendo, and Super Nintendo. Mini arcade games such as Pac-Man, they looked like the real arcade machine, but in a tiny version, you could play at home. The first handheld games…you could play football or baseball. Electronic games such as Simon Says and Merlin. Both were games where you followed patterns, sounds, and colors, and each level got harder, adding on other stuff with each level. There were games like Operation, where you had an operating table and a little pair of tongs/tweezers. On the table was a printout of a guy you are operating on, and there will little holes filled with plastic body parts you had to remove. If you touched the tweezers on the outer metal part of the hole, it buzzed loudly and it was the next person’s turn. Then there was Perfection. It was a timer-based game, you had a box with a timer on it. In the middle you would push down. The middle itself had holes where you were to place all these different shapes before the timer went off. If the timer went off, it would pop up the middle piece, sending the pieces you managed to get placed, everywhere and you lost. Most Gen Xs remember these and blame these games for their first recollections of feeling real anxiety. I concur…
