Erm... what about I don't know the most human thing before all that... some companionship?

Frankly, i find thats actually the real reason for most of these burnouts/crashes. Humans are the most social creatures in the world and this trait is diminished by our tech culture.



Oh yeah, I totally agree. My point is that limiting yourself to the basic necessities that cost $$, while reducing your wage slavery, will enable a much more fulfilling social life.

How many times have you bailed on friends, or skipped meetup-type events because you're just too drained from doing shit you don't want to do for half your waking hours?
