How long would it take you to adjust to a life without today’s technology?

I am saying you were dropped in 1978 or something. It is easy to say how nice it would be but I feel like all of us are used to having such easy access to information, instantly.

Hardest thing (if you didnt already know how) would be having to figure out how to get around with paper maps.

At this point it would be like quitting any other addictive habit like smoking.

Yeah but you still have basics.
Running water, electricity, television, telephone, automobiles, antibiotics, etc.
So yeah...I would be just fine.

I had to request a box from the warehouse from 1989 (I was 8). As an accountant who uses Excel, seeing calculations on green ledger paper was hilarious.

I would miss porn but I think I would be okay. I went a month one time without a cell phone and it was actually quite relaxing.

I would love to be 18 in the 1970s post Vietnam. Bring on the bush.

Accounting classes would be way easier without computers

Nope, just no, hell no on the bush

1 day. Personal life anyway.
I work in automation. I'd probably need a new job

Assuming my bank accounts still have all the money they had the day before, and I have at least one credit card (with the highest limit I currently have), less than 24 hours.

Hell, I was 26 in 78, so it would be a piece of cake for me and I'd not care if that happened tomorrow so I could watch all these millennials and genx folks freak the frick out.

We still developed x-rays in the dark room just 10-15 years ago. Yeah it was a pain in the arse and took longer. Still the same damn pic
