As someone who did not stand up often enough, listen to it. I can barely sit for 15 minutes now without being in excruciating pain. The only chairs I can comfortably sit in are recliners. I’m only 40 now, and my problem started at least a decade ago. It’s common advice for a reason.

I was out walking with a friend the other day and he tripped and fell. His watch told him, “It seems you’ve fallen sharply.” He had to tap the screen to stop it calling the emergency services. The other friend walking with us said his wife’s watch tells her to stand up if she’s been sitting too long. “And she does it!” I’m officially a curmudgeon, grumbling about tech taking over.

I actually really like this kind of tech that is focused on health and safety. I just wish it weren’t also reporting all this shit to corporate overlords.
