Modern life is difficult without internet access, but yet you can live without internet, the question is, how long?
Depends on what standard of living you desire and where you are- If you want to live as a hobo then as long as you survive your basic biological needs you could go indefinitely without internet, the same is true of any outsdoorsman who lives in a remote area where they can survive just based on their ability to hunt and collect water.
Maybe you should try to live in a third world country, not necessarily a hobo but a regular life without commidities you have been granted for you priviliges.
Its like living in hard difficulty
of course? I don't see how attacking me correlates to the original question though.
I actually grew up homeless for quite a few years, and there were plenty of hungry nights & if it wasn't due to living in a 1st world nation I probably wouldn't be here now. It's not exactly the same but at least I know a similar struggle.
It was a sarcastic realistic suggestion to prove my point, im not attacking you, calm down your tits
Ive never been a homeless but being a homeless in a first world country is good
