the six year old, watching basketball: "is this live?"

"yes"

"aw, I was hoping it wasn't so we can skip the commercials"

something interesting about raising kids whose main experience of TV is streaming is that they have absolutely no patience for ads

Humans adapt very quickly to comfort, safety, and convenience.

I'm convinced that any human who could time travel from before, say, 1900 AD to today would, inside of two weeks, be a Starbucks-ordering YouTube-addicted meme lord.

You can actually kinda test things like the timetravel. There are lots of people that have been in jail since before widespread computer usage. I saw a dude talk about his experience once and i think he got used to the conveniences pretty quick, but took a long time to get used to the social behaviour differences.
