I'm not quite so sure.

The convenience of technology has radically altered just how we function as an individual.

• Why bother to remember a phone number by heart? It's on speed dial. Take someone else's phone for a moment and try to call some of your friends.
• You don't need to know how to do any simple mathematics like figuring out how much a sale price is saving you, or how much to tip, use your calculator.
• No need to know how to drive to someplace, just let the GPS dictate when to turn.
• Cashiers don't count back change. They give you what the register tells them.
• Waitstaff can't always give you what you want, there has to be a button on the order screen in order to do it.
• Spellcheck has caused some to forget simple things like "i before e, except after c..." Misspellings shouldn't happen at all. How hard is it to press F7 before printing a document?

I was going to write such a thread, and still might, because many of the above things have happened to me.

Maybe the correct terminology is that the technology made me lazy and complacent.
