Feel like our whole idea of free time now depends on a perfect chain of tech working right. Your power goes out, my internet cuts off right at the big reveal, a streaming service just glitches for an hour. We plan these escapes into a show but the real world, the wires and the weather, always gets a vote. Makes you wonder if the old way of waiting a week for a new episode wasn't a little more sturdy.

Remember when we thought those things were the height of tech? Makes me feel like a dinosaur.

Honestly, I used to think they were just being stubborn. What changed your mind about them?
