> I realize that I enjoy life (not work) better when there is no Internet

On the other hand, life becomes utterly miserable with a little internet. It's an all-or-nothing kind of deal.

Not really. It is like an addiction, however after not being on the internet for sometime one become more appreciative of things around and local stuff. High recommend tech people try it if opportunity arises.

By "a little internet", do you mean a low-bandwidth connection, a connection that is often / usually unavailable when you want to use it, or something else?

By that I mean shitty, unstable internet. It grinds my gears, yet I can't accept it and do something else.

If the internet is entirely gone, I'll read a book or do something else.
