Does constant exposure to digital technology change the way we perceive time?
When human attention is hyperfocused on a single point, all other environmental stimuli tends to be cut off. When we completely cut our experience off from our surroundings, this often makes us feel as though we are suffering from what is sometimes called “time loss”. Add to this the never-ending quest for a new hit of dopamine that digital culture provides and you have a recipe for the mass warping of human brains.

To add to the evidence supporting the video’s conclusion, I remember reading a story a few years back about a restaurant in New York which was losing business.
The restaurant found that customer complaints had skyrocketed that year, and that the vast majority of complaints were about food preparation times. In other words, the customers complained that the food was taking far too long to get to them. In order to identify the exact problem the restaurant owners hired a company to study their surveillance camera tapes on random days for multiple years, and compare how fast it took for food to get from kitchen to table in the past compared to today. What the company found was shocking. Regardless of the year, the food preparation time and delivery was the SAME. They had not slowed down at all. If anything, they had sped up their efforts.
So, what the hell was going on?
The company also discovered something else; the amount of time people were spending on their cell phones while in the restaurant had spiked.
It was concluded that the only thing that had changed in the restaurant was the attention span of the customers…which is rather frightening when you think about it…

As you get older, you have been alive longer. Each thing you do is a smaller and smaller percentage of the whole of your life, thus the illusion of time speeding up.
As a small child, that hour wait is a significant portion of your conscious life, perhaps .01 % of your life. Now its .0001% and imperceptible in the grand scheme.
I always have thought Jones lost two of his best when Aaron and Melissa left info whores.
Right at the end, she wonders what will happen when large, large numbers of society lose their ability for deeper reflection and critical thought….
annuit coeptis novus ordo seclorum- look around, Melissa !
I appreciate Aaron and Melissa as well. Very good researchers and well spoken too. They keep their heads about them. Could use a little Bible… they’d be a real force.
Melissa is not a dike.
. . . to the point that “situational awareness” is a thing of the past:

Albert was a Fraud . The only reason his bullshit is promoted is the fact that Jews control the world media companies.
But he was right about the idiots.
I had to check, I thought it was abs ordo sicario talking about the atom bomb.
Haha….that’s funny, Misti
I don’t like talkin’ about the bomb, I don’t know anything about it. I could talk to you a bit about permit required CS FME entry in nuke containment areas. Or, if you like, we can discuss how to pick a dime up with a fork lift.

However, I do have access to the inventory, and possess the ability, to spread enough bullschitt to cover the whole state.
2 Tim 3:13… “But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”
It’s a natural progression. We’re 2,000 years on down the road since Paul penned those words. How much longer can it last? Beats me… The world is lucky I ain’t God. I’m nowhere near as longsuffering as He is.
You got pretty close dealing with DDung, I would have slapped his happy ass halfways through. I don’t really know, I would put him in the same category with Fleabo – fucked up, handle with care.
I can’t not try… ?
