My grandfather used a sundial in his garden, which forced him to consider the sun's position rather than just checking digits. It was frustratingly inaccurate on cloudy days, but that was part of the point. You had to estimate, to remember where the shadow last was, to actually engage with the passage of time. Now I glance at my phone and get a precise timestamp along with five notifications, and the moment is gone. That kind of forced slowness seems entirely lost now, traded for constant updates that mean very little. I miss devices that demanded a bit of patience from their users.
