Never need a battery or a satellite.
I can challenge you to race if we ever to meet face to face.
I will bet you 25¢ that I can find any location faster than you
Paper VS Digital

All the time
I barely use a computer device.
I always forget to check my email. Sometimes I go a week or more without checking it.
If you look at my activity on here. I'm not very active user.

Depends upon purpose and audience. As a professional journalist/writer, I already could type from 80-100 words a minute on typewriters depending upon manual or electric, but word processing was a God send both for adding to the speed and editing capabilities on large articles and documents, and speedy communication through email. With a full-sized keyboard that is. Those advantages shrink along with the keyboards as you go to laptop to tablet to phone.
And while I am not an iron clad etiquette dinosaur who insists that most social communication needs to be handwritten, the hand-written note or card on special occasions or to convey highly personal feelings (rather than the I'm sending a card because society and/or marketing says I should) does add something to the message. It communicates a little more investment, a little more personality.
Then there are the making of lists, jotting down thoughts/ideas, outlining things, etc. -- I still find it easier to jot them down with pen and paper. And my printer is happy to oblige by generating reams of scratch paper from malfunctions.

yea....I am not sure why but somehow it helps me think better
maybe it has to do with transient currents as signals cross the corpus callossum
