 you send an assignment ASAP instead of on the assigned due date? And if
it's because you've missed the due date, what right do you have to act
difficult and decide the medium over which you turn it in? Either accept the
failed grade, or play by the rules of the person who is accommodating you.

Self control when it comes to technology is great and all, and if you feel you
need or want less than the average person, that's fine. But thinking you're

The article seems to be about what he imagines a young person of today would
do if they wanted to affect a counter cultural lifestyle. Sticking it to the
man (advertisers, your boss, parents, etc.) and throwing common mediums and
traditions out the window to freak out the normies. He's not saying the old
way was better, he goes to lengths to point that out when he says:

>This is just maudlin, nostalgic mush. You can’t go back. But all my
imagination can do when picturing a life off the grid is summon up the life I
had before the grid existed, so I cannot help being retrospective.

He's using the past way of life as a framework to build his vision on, not as
the desired outcome. The imagined exchange with a teacher is equally fanciful
but serves the point of illustrating a conflict between a young person and an
establishment figure. A failed grade would be of no consequence here since it
is certainly an expected response from someone in a position of power
attempting to force you into conformity... missing this point is telling of
your misunderstanding of the article so I think I'll leave it at that.
