Did Anyone Catch the First Episode of "That 90's Show"?

Though I make a conscious effort to not become dependent upon them.

We just wanted to make you feel wanted.

Though I suppose one could draw certain conclusions about the DebateArt community, from the apparent unpopularity of said entertainment vehicle.

Not that I wish to do so.

I suppose that my formative conditioning was why I grew up with only a limited interest in televisual and cinematic entertainment mediums.

Over a year I probably average less than one hour per day watching TV.

And I can't remember the last time I visited a cinema... It's certainly more than ten years ago.

Latterly, my laptop and primarily DebatArt have become my main entertainment and reference mediums of choice.

Though I make a conscious effort to not become dependant upon them.

Younger people and their reliance on hand held devices is an all too apparent sign of the times.

What form  do you think the next phase of the human/techno symbiosis will take?

Or should I say, the next phase of the technological takeover.

And funnily enough, as young children my sister and I were only allowed to watch children's T.V. between 5 and 6pm.

Suggests that you and I were conditioned.

Which is probably  also why I am atheist. 

And goes to prove that what we think today is likely to be based upon what we were taught as young children.

Autonomous individual.

Now there's a moot point.

What stops you doing stuff that you don't regularly do.

And what makes you do stuff that you regularly do.

It seemingly takes no mental effort to be habitual,

But a deliberate amount of effort to change one's routine.

One would assume that it's all down to how our operating system becomes established.

One can still choose.

Back to where we started this brief discussion.

OK.

So I'm uncertain as to how you're using "prescription" in that statement.

And I would suggest that either presuming or not presuming to dictate that which I WOULD do, is like tying the stick and carrot to the donkeys tail.

Or, leaving the stick and carrot in the stable.

Though I suppose that relative to this brief discussion, I CAN as you can, as we will do relative to a cause.

Which won't necessarily result in a prescribed outcome.

As a cause might stimulate an alternative effect, which relative to this discourse would not necessarily be disingenuous.

Or perhaps I should say, SHOULD not necessarily be regarded as necessarily disingenuous.

Words are fun, are they not?

Well, I assume that Universal progress goes from A to Z...(Then back to A perhaps)

And  events therefore all follow a previous event.

Or just one big event.

Or both.

Just as a life goes from A to Z.
