A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

The thing many people don't even need their fridge to be smart in the first place
Who are you to dictate who needs what? I definitely "need" a smart fridge from my example because I always forget to make a list before I go to the grocery store. It would save me so much time and money.
You honestly sound like the old fucks of ancient times past who always bitched about new "tech":
Nothing is stopping you from running away into the mountains to life a tech free life
I do, and that's what concerns me. Because I'm only in my 20s. I could disconnect for a while, but I'm always going to have to return to society, whose constant changing caused this fatigue, eventually.
