Why Facebook is a Joke (And various social media/smartphone insanity)

[AgainstAllOdds]

Was watching Elon Musk's presentation, and became disappointed 6:50 in when everyone takes out their phones to record. Dammit, the entire presentation is being broadcast live around the world. Why the hell do you need to record it?

Don't know why, but that always strikes a nerve.

The worst for me is people that go to art museums and take pictures of the paintings using their phones. They're in front of BILLIONS (with a B) of dollars worth of art, that in previous lifetimes they'd never have access to, are able to get their face as close as 1 inch away from the canvas ... And what they decided to do is document every single piece instead of appreciating the work?

Every single painting is already cataloged on the museum's website! Just enjoy what you have, and put your phone away.

Sidenote: went on a hike with a beautiful 38 year old in California (her mid-life crisis). Then mid-hike she starts texting one of our mutual female friends for close to an hour. Trying to figure what the plans are later that night. After half an hour I just ended up stealthily walking away, finishing the hike, calling an Uber, and deleting her from my phone. Technology has turned a good portion of us into anti-social robots (unfortunately at the cost of me getting laid).
