#22Hmm, in Chromium developer tools, in the Network tab, I set throttling to "Offline", but nothing happened in the page.
I am on Chrome 60.0.3112.101 too and it works.

Sure, the smartphone is a great thing to take with you when something unpredictable happened and you're forced to wait 1/2/10 hourse, and you didn't take anything with you (a book, your computer, etc).

How often I choose not to pick a book when leaving, because I've got the smartphone "just in case" ? Of course I hav…
Interesting. I have a smartphone that doesn't interrupt me at all, because it doesn't run any of the apps that tend to do so — this is a Meizu Pro5 running the now abandoned Ubuntu Touch; I'll probably jump over the UBports soon.

#25Well done, I had the urge to google the second most commonly spoken language while reading the article. I turned my phone in some kind of a "dumb phone": - Deleted all games, news apps, basically all the apps I don't regulary need - Turned off email. It's still configured, I turn it on if I need to read an email - No push notifications at all Next step: Turn off mobile data for browser and only activate it if I need…
Next step: "dumb" phone. Next step: no phone.
That's a great way to convince yourself you're becoming some sort of productivity Übermensch and never end up speaking to your friends again.

No, you just need to move to a place where nobody has a phone. It's great to spend every day outside having adventures, face to face with people!

I have friends who live in different physical locations than me or work different schedules than me. Should I decide the friends I just saw off to grad-school are now dead to me, able to speak to their other friends but not me, the zen master who has moved beyond the need for communication?
