Hmm, radicalization doesn’t come through social media. Sure, it makes the process faster, but when you get fucked over, you don’t really care about your phone telling you you’re getting fucked over. Kids also have an incredible word of mouth. At least where I live the radicalized divide has been pretty strong with 35% voting for the most left/right wing party available to them.

So get outta here with your radicalized centrist crap.

I’m sorry, but you are wrong. Everything about fascists is radical.

They do tend to, and in this case are, extremist.

Radical politics seek extreme societal change, from the root, if you like. Fascism does this through authoritarian control, to name one example.

Good job on neatly describing extremism and radical politics though.

I did not say left, I said radicalized. That includes fascists as well.

I’m Gen Z, but if we are as radicalized as we are, just imagine what gen alpha will be.

Ah, I know what you mean. That taste is truly unique.

Can I choose bothe my distro and my sock?

Eh, no.

It… got rebranded into LineageOS?

Okay, first of I have no idea with whatever else I would be typing rather than my thumbs.

Second of, I do sometimes stand in front my cabinet, sometimes I take it out for a few minutes. But it never gets to an hour anymore. Using my phone for less than an hour a day is not achievable for most “modern” (lmao) humans. I still have the need to write my friends, which are sadly all addicted to their phones too, don’t go out regularly and we chat using our phones. Lemmy is a whole other issue, but it’s getting less as well.

Just because I’m doing something doesn’t mean I’m perfect at it. You appear like a double hyprocrite for trying to point out how I’m not doing what I say and meanwhile don’t do it yourself while finding it to be true.

Then you want to create a future that does not serve you. If my family tries to sell me dishsoap, I will stop them. If someone wants to push AI ads, I will block them. There is no known mechanism they have to force me to watch ads.

You got me like huhhh

And it’s not like they’re gonna stop them anyways.

I have wondered for personal reasons what the best way is to store thc for later consumption?

“solar-powered AI satellites”
I mean I get the picture, but that picture is driven by buzzwords.

If by normal you average, they don’t even really need 16gb.
Creative work can gobble up ram, heavy ass multitasking does as well.
So it’s more in the digitally productive professional or hobbyist cases where you need such amounts as a person.

For development high amounts of rams can be useful for all sorts of stuff, it’s not just compiling, but also testing, though 32 is often enough.

I did do that.
I still use it from time to time.

Oh, I wish that were true, but things are not this certain.

Phone.

I’m sorry, I don’t wanna break the funny, so if you’re just here to laugh, the please feel free to do so.

If you are suffering:
Real Phone addiction, which a lot of people nowadays have, takes lifes. It is nothing to joke with. Get a professional if you can. It will erode you physical wellness, your social groups, your grades, your working capacity, you will get severe depression, anxiety, will lack hunger. We all know where that can lead.

Fight it, you have ambitions. The phone does not make you happy.

You should put your phone in a cabinet. Ideally in a space where other people can see it during the day. Then loudly announce to them that you’re limiting your screen time in that way.
This is the first step: Admitting it, full stop, nothing to be ashamed of.

When you catch yourself doing more than standing awkwardly in front of the cabinet to answer messages from friends and family you should fix that by putting the phone back into the cabinet. If this is too hard, buy a timed phone safe. Make sure to have a way to call the fire department.
That’s the second step: Correcting yourself. Just don’t get frustrated, it’s not you, it’s your addiction.

And then when you can leave that shitter in there for as long as you want without thinking of it in a longingly way, then you can finally start living a life without your addiction. It won’t be gone, mind you.
And that’s the final step: Consistency.

After a long time of personal development you may even completely make your addiction disappear, but this takes a long time.
Personal development will happen along the way. You will be surprised how much emotion you will have without your phone. You will want to do stuff again.

Good luck. BANISH THAT FUCKER.

Matter of fact, I’ll have to put something away.

Look at it from this angle:
The carts are personal property. When you don’t return them, that’s theft. When you don’t return them properly, that’s miscoduct.

Americans have been doing this for an eternity, so they just hired a cart guy and called it a day. You can’t put the entire country in the courts. It’s culture at that point.

Englishpeople didn’t and so it became reasonable to just make it a law for the few idiots who think they can do what they want. No cart guy required. This is how most laws are made. Traffic laws were once a good example.
