Ago, and yet all the time we're busy and anxious and sad.

You can't punch stuff anymore.

The result was that, when a machine wasn't working, the solution was to beat it like it'd slept with your wife. Bash it with a hammer jam a knife into it. Pry it apart with an ax or a crowbar.

True: One, people generally knew how their devices worked. Two, most of the devices in life were large and stupid. Hand-tools, carts, chairs, stoves.

Today when your computer suddenly loses all your work, what do you do? Internalize the anger. Eat it. If you do beat something, it's an old technology like the table or wall, but you have to treat the actual source of the problem like royalty.
