Is the world too stressful and scary right now? Do you need to relax? Have you been told you need to touch some grass, but you're too tired or lazy to go out.

I have just the thing for you: Den stora älgvandrigen or The great moose migration which is Swedish slow tv, a 24/7 video stream for a few weeks of moose migrating to their summer pastures:

#slowtv #relax

SVT PlayDen stora älgvandringenI flera tusen år har älgarna vandrat samma leder för att komma till sommarens rika betesmarker. For several thousand years the moose have walked the same path to get to the rich pastures of summer. Follow the walk live from Kullberg in the north of Sweden.

That sounds super-exhausting. My god, no. I appreciate a challenge, grit makes pearls, but I wouldn't want all challenge all the time. Sometimes it is vital that things just work easily and with the absolute minimum of fuss, and sometimes I just need to relax, you know?

Look. Some of the comments here are veering off into kind of abusive/derogatory/judgemental regarding device-usage, and I just want to be clear that wanting a box with one big shiny button on it is, by itself, not any kind of failing. You don't know what that person does in their lives that might mean they don't have the resource to sit and troubleshoot bugged code for four hours a day. Other people just aren't that way inclined, and that is perfectly valid. Computer illiteracy isn't a crime, or some societal death-knell. [#Relax]. What bugs me personally is when that becomes obnoxious crowd-pleasing mockery; those people can fuck off. But perhaps if we weren't calling them "retards" and making them feel stupid they'd be less inclined to be like that?

But for your basic 'I just want email that works' person I have no beef with them whatsoever. I have a colleague at work who finds IT use really really hard and it shocked me how little she understood basic concepts, but from her I learned that people with IT skills need to have tolerance for and patience with those that it doesn't come easy to, and not try to berate/guilt them into becoming sysadmins.
