Replacing physical buttons and controls with touchscreens also means removing accessibility features. Physical buttons can be textured or have Braille and can be located by touch and don't need to be pressed with a bare finger. Touchscreens usually require precise taps and hand-eye coordination for the same task.

Many point-of-sale machines now are essentially just a smartphone with a card reader attached and the interface. The control layout can change at a moment's notice and there are no physical boundaries between buttons. With a keypad-style machine, the buttons are always in the same place and can be located by touch, especially since the middle button has a raised ridge on it.

Buttons can also be located by touch without activating them, which enables a "locate then press" style of interaction which is not possible on touchscreens, where even light touches will register as presses and the buttons must be located visually rather than by touch.

When elevator or door controls are replaced by touch screens, will existing accessibility features be preserved, or will some people no longer be able to use those controls?

Who is allowed to control the physical world, and who is making that decision?

the impulse to hide what I'm doing at my computer still sits so deep even tho I'm literally never looking at anything objectionable , the door will open and I'll hurry to close the page like oh fuck no one can know I'm looking at the Wikipedia page for the Balkans

it's never just "tiktok has a predatory algorithmic process to keep you on the app for hours and hours to generate ad revenue that targets weaker attention spans and addictive personalities (which are completely benign expressions of human psychology, btw)" it's "tiktok is degenerating you into a lesser form of human. like some kind of tard. you don't want to be some kind of tard, do you?"

been thinking about this post and i regret the use of "addictive personality" as a shorthand to describe a number of different factors obviously not prediscursive to economic systems & the psychological ones constructed to support them my neurotic ass must clarify that it's not my position there's such a thing as a prima facie platonic unit of psychic makeup that makes you hopelessly addicted to substances and dopamine hits or that there can even be such a thing a la that picture of the anime girl walking around in a bombed out city like "i feel so bad. must be a chemical imbalance"
