“But what if you have to write a job application letter?”
Well, Ms Sullivan, you were WRONG.
“It’s so you can do the math even if you don’t have a calculator available”
“Oh, like literally never?”
It’s still pretty useful to do simple math in your head. For example chicken adding a few numbers together or multiplying something. In general stuff that would take longer to type in than just calculating yourself.

On a long enough time frame everything is just a waste of time.
I feel i retain better information if I handwrite my notes.
So I do that.
Personally I even do that digitally. Tablets are basicly a limitless piece of paper.
I tried that, but I much prefer the haptics of real paper and writing with an actual pen. Also, I really like the look of ink on paper. Of course, there are still cases when a tablet is just the best. For example, when annotating PDFs.
It’s deffenetly weird at first. And as everything not for everybody.
I’m with you personally. Being able to just move whole blocks of writing makes for some amazing note organization. Not to mention linking things etc.
It also improves the small motor skills. Writing is good for the brain.
I have factory defects and have small motor problems anyways.
Yes, but for my own notes it’s not a problem if the handwriting is ugly. I still like to write by hand, even if my handwriting looks pretty messy.
Somehow I have never seen that sad Morgan Freeman face before.
I think its right before he gets got at the end of Wanted.
The main reason why kids write like neanderthals nowadays.
It definitely was not a waste of time! Grab a cheap fountain pen and give yourself a new hobby :)
pro tip: you can still write ugly if you use a fountain pen
