Yes social media is a problem, however that alone does not justify banning everyone under 21 from using the entire internet. As the person who I replied to said they wanted.

Social media is its own problem that’s needs regulations to come under control.

Also since they weren’t allowed on the internet till they were 21, those 21 year olds won’t know how to act on the internet. So now there’s 21 year olds roaming around who will need to figure all that shit out. They might get other aspects of being an adult but the internet will be completely alien.

It’s like when I saw people saying kids shouldn’t be allowed into the grocery store because someone was annoyed that kids didn’t know how to behave there yet. You just create a new and larger problem where adults don’t know how to act.

I don’t think that’s the solution though, kids (including teens to some extent) can be on the internet but it requires better parenting. It’s better to monitor what they are doing online until they are like 15 or 16, maybe 17 if you have a really good reason too. Limit screen time, be around to answer questions your kid has about what they might see.

Little kids though? Absolutely should be off the internet. Anyone under 10 shouldn’t be on the internet period in my opinion. 10-12 is kinda a gray zone to me where it’s definitely up to the parents and if they think their child is ready.

I’m a cat so yes

Hmmmm, is there sparkly inks? If so then sparkly and shiny is enough to convince me.

I’m also not a luddite, I’ll use pen and paper thank you very much

Linux won’t make bullshit pc part prices cheaper. RAM, SSDs, GPUs are all rising in prices because of the AI bubble, used and new are all being affected. Can’t run Linux if the parts are too expensive to even get in the first place.

IOUs backed in IOUs that are from Nvidia, just a circle where no money actually changes hands

Hey look someone with integrity, morals, principles and balls. Sadly all four of those seem to be highly endangered traits.

I know of Clippy, Cortana, Co-Pilot and Mico so 4 that I know of and all are very useless

The only reason why we haven’t toppled (at least in the US) is because not enough people are missing their 3 meals. The second that happens for a large enough portion of the population the country will disintegrate. Food shortages are a massive destabilizing force and will force massive changes to compensate.

And after NFTs, blockchain, the metaverse and so on

I mean price is a very fair criticism though, especially with the current state of the economy. If you can afford the higher cost for worse specs but better repairability then great. If you can’t then you kinda have to go with a non-reparable option, but at least those guarantee a charger in the box.

I use a iPhone, my mom and dad (may he rest in peace) were already using them and wanted to use the family features on them to keep my brother and me safe. I didn’t choose to be in the ecosystem, I was just placed in it.

I also just have no reason to talk shit on android users because I know many of them are like me. Just placed into the ecosystem by parents, since their parents used them. Also just who really gives that much of a fuck? It’s a phone, it’s a laptop or earbuds or whatever. Largely things that people just need in the modern world, and it’s easy to stick with what you know and what’s easy to use.

They have been off my wishlist purely because of the cost, even DYI with missing pieces is $550. That’s more than my laptop was new so pass.

Pretentious and block worthy

uYouPlus is working just fine

Yay for labeling slop as slop

No because I don’t us ai slop

Technology Connections my beloved, their videos are perfect for when I need something to drift off to sleep to
