iPhone alarm glitch leaves users fuming

You'll have to excuse me, I'm having a tech backlash. I just turned 50, and it's either that, or start yelling for kids to get outta my yard.

All my life, I've been the guy that had all the latest gadgets, and tech toys.

Anymore, I don't care for any of it, and care even less to read the fucking manual for it. I guess I just reached saturation.

I now lust for simple, elegant, self-contained, computer-independent, dedicated gear, that just simply WORKS.

I still have all the tech shit, and if I really need to, I can use it. I just don't like it anymore, and find that it often complicates simple tasks that we used to accomplish previously with far simpler tools, and with greater reliability.

I guess I could sum it up as; SIMPLIFY.

See, told you I was getting old.
