Giorno #16

Le nuove tecnologie ci illudono: essere in contatto non significa essere vicini. Il digitale rende tutto più accessibile ma meno profondo.

Le relazioni autentiche nascono da scelte intenzionali: richiedono attenzione, tempo e presenza.
Bisogna spegnere gli schermi, e guardarsi negli occhi per farlo.

Solo così possiamo costruire intimità in un mondo frammentato.

La vera connessione non è essere online, ma essere presenti.

The Unihertz Jelly Star is two years old, runs Android 13, and still does something no other phone can: make me think before I use it.
It’s tiny, awkward, and honest — a detox device that actually works. No one’s made anything like it since. Even Unihertz gave up.
I looked for something that could replace it. Nothing exists.

Enjoying the maximalism of two ereaders side by side with the book ”#DigitalMinimalism” on them.

Trying out a colour #Kobo after a long line of black-and-white Kindles and I’m quite torn so far.

Great book, incidentally.

I tried using grayscale filters on my devices previously and reverted within a day. I am trying this again, this time with more consistency. This is to avoid my dopamine levels spiking out of control.

On Android devices, this feature is built-in. If using LineageOS, go to Settings -> Display -> Live Display -> "Reading mode" to toggle the switch.

On desktop, I am using this for Firefox alone for now. Go to addons, search for "Grayscale" and pick one.
