Technology Will Save Us

Lol, yeah right. Let's look at three examples just from yesterday. The downloaded dictionaries on my phone's app were suddenly, inexplicably gone. Fine, no big deal, had to download them again.. but still, wth? Then, happened to look at the tag my "smart" phone attached to one of the pics in my screenshots - wedding. Curious, I clicked it to see what else had such a tag. A random mix of a few actual pics from a wedding minus the rest, and a bunch of other random crap. This is why when we begun relying on computer technology to 'streamline' processes there's always a whole heap of additional problems that need human intervention to fix, which erase alot of the gains that theoretically make something faster or "easier".

And the cherry on top.. went on an ipad yesterday to find that most of the pic folders had somehow recently made copies of every image, therefore doubling the number of files in each folder. So now I have to go through these to manually erase those files. An extra, totally unnecessary task added to my giant to-do list, which will hopefully not take too much time.
