That seriously sounds like some torture method

Didn’t know about Citron stuff. Time to remove it from my Steamdeck…

Sukyia… ehehehe

Oh no.

All I’m hearing is excuses over excuses!

They probably are higher.

Daaang, I forgot about the 4 (!!!) front cameras. Super creepy. Like, one is already bad and accepted but four…

If you restrict the crap out of the phones so there is not much interesting to do for kids, it will have similar effects. E.g. they complain about YouTube on their kids phones, block it. Complain about games, don’t let them install them.

Children’s smartwatches are a stripped-down version of a typical smartwatch, and they allow parents to restrict app downloads, usage and calls from an approved list of contacts.

All of that you can do with a phone too. I do admit thought the argument of not losing it as easily since its on your arm makes sense.

Yeah, that is me too. I tried Mastodon for a bit and it just didn’t work for me. Posting something just drowns you out until you actually have a decent amount of followers, however many that may need to be.

If I post with a new account, 99% of it goes into the void. I had a few people like and boost my posts but they were still gone into oblivion within an hour or less. Not sure how that is appealing? It is like a popularity contest. Like those cliques in schools of the popular kids.

Last time I heard about the possibility it seemed a bit hacky, did it get easier by now?

You forgot my favourite one!

“My working hours are not your working hours, feel free to reply when you have the time” or however else it goes…

That is basically the “but Hitler built the highways” argument.

Democracy isn’t that everyone is being forced to be of the same opinion. They don’t vote for their actions, the hive mind overrides each personality with the overarching Borg characteristics, mean assimilation of every worthy race, eradication of danger. There is no individual left in this. If you think that is democracy or socialism then I don’t know what else to tell you.

Amazing. Can’t tell if you’re joking or you are for real.

I don’t think you understand what the Borg are about.

I don’t know the situation in all of the countries, but the ones I know that allow you to make a copy of what you purchased also require that in making a copy you are not allowed to break any DRM. I don’t think there are many media being sold that do not include some kind of DRM these days.

Edit: agree that people may not know how to pirate stuff but ripping something in decent enough quality also requires quite specialist knowledge.

There are so many high quality rips out there. Bothering to rip these yourself makes not much sense, unless its very obscure stuff.
