Not only that but the frontpage of Mastodon is more angry political stuff than anything technology related.

Don't compare Miku to Taylor Swift ever again lol

How old is your phone to have a back cover?

Forgot that when I typed that, updated

Why buy from any of these sketchy Chinese platforms? I wouldn't feel safe giving them any of my credit/debit card information, let alone being installed on one of my devices.

Does anyone use Ubuntu 18.04 anymore?

How do you donate to a 80's hair metal band?

Guns are what made this country and I personally take pride in them. They are tools and aren't just made "to kill".

I came to the conclusion the world is held together with painters tape when I learned there are companies hiring people to mantain OS/2 Warp systems today.

I read a lot like for instance on this website and some nonfiction literature but I stay away from the news and mainstream media, so I'm usually quite out of the loop and I like it here.

Snapchat will ban you for having too many accounts on one phone number but sees nothing wrong with "Dab pens for sale" or "1 gram for $15". The platforms are partly to blame.

What disturbs me is these people are all angry with a complete lack of an outlook or any attempt to discover the root of the problem and create a solution. The reason young people have been detrimented by social media is because of multiple different fundemental issues.

1. Most kids and teenagers have unmonitored access to the Internet

2. Parents don't see the harm in any of this because it gets them to shut up

3. Maybe it's because of where I'm from (Alabama) but most kids come from bad home lives and mostly cope with it negatively

4. The age of not having to be somewhat technologically adequate to use the Internet since it's now behind flashy colorful locked down bricks has only made technology and society worse, but this is just my personal opinion

5. The algorithms of these platforms are engineered to promote this horrid content due to the boosts in user engagement and therefore ad-revenue, and almost all humanity and sympathy is completely lost in publicly traded companies owned by shareholders that care about nothing

Attaching ID confirmation to use TikTok or Youtube or whatever is a duct-tape fix when parents will just scan their ID so their kids will shut up. ID confirmation to use online social networks is in my honest opinion a major violation of freedom in exchange for a little bit of security (remember what Ben Franklin said?). The Internet is the place where you throw vile insults at someone 8 states away on a multiplayer game, buy those weird books you like and get a second perspective on the dumb exhaust mod you're doing on your car, we don't need to know who you are. For additional context, I'm 15 nearing 16, so maybe I'm just spiteful out of angst.

Germany is the whole circus

Fun fact, both the Wii's seconday ARM chip used for security tasks and the iPhone 2G's processors had Jazelle but never used them.

What exactly is the Vision Pro? AR goggles? VR goggles? Does it have hardware inside? Can it play VR games? The name certainly doesn't tell me anything, and the price point makes sure I won't ever see one.

Agree. Saw recently that ANTIFA was trying to protest a comedian's appearance at a venue in Portland and some members were threatening violence if they appeared. That's certainly pro-censorship and in the vein of not allowing people who disagree with you to have the same rights as you, but I don't know if it fits the textbook definition of fascism.

I would find it easier to believe there is a pedophile ring inside the government and Donald Trump is involved, especially considering his association with Epstein.

Is Proton Bridge free now? I remember it being paid.

I didn't even know they tried to change it. Fast food companies sell some items that shouldn't be legal, Dairy Queen had some loaded up "milkshake" that was nearing 2300 calories.

Because everyday people should totally have to pay the price for a decision their government made they didn't want and could do nothing about.

Made the swtich to Tuta (previously Tutanota) about 2 years ago and never once looked back. I only wish they had support for some sort of protocol for third-party clients.

For context, I was born the year this guy went to prison. I'm almost 16.

> QAnon

I have never heard of, seen or even got wind of a "QAnon" member, group, theory, website or whatever they say it is outside of mainstream news. According to them it's some huge group of evil people but I can't tell myself that they're a real thing. If anyone has any real world, personal experience I would love to hear it.

Anyone else remember when movies on DVD or Blu-ray had those digital download codes in the case that were always expired by the time you bought it?

That would probably be the best thing ever

My niece likes this show and I had never heard of it before. When I was a kid I liked cartoons that were on the air like 5-10 years before because even when I was 5 I found newer cartoons annoying. This one was pretty neat though and I agree it's refreshing after seeing the slop on the screen blasting from iPad kids.

One thing I really appreciate is that it's quiet, the characters are soft spoken, stock sounds don't play constantly, there isn't constant music, it's simple and doesn't make my head hurt.

I'm in high school now and I bought their sbemail DVD boxset

Could you mask the provider, and a VoIP provider appear to be like "SimpleTalk Wireless" or something and fake being a mobile phone carrier?

How does spam make money if it isn't advertising anything, and even if it is who's paying for

"The free interaction is great, but I love the best casino games on onlineslots.fun, amazing ever and I always love win cold hard cash 100% with no credit card sign up trial. Payday loans online."

to be spammed on every old phpBB/SMF forum or article comment section crawled on the web?

The company can create a way to void the warranty or not take responsibility and leave it to you if 3rd party modifications or drivers are used, but not outright prevent them and make them a pain to the users. Something like how Android ROMs and rooting used to be.
