personally, i've got more important shit going on that what phone people are using. in the case of this phone, it looks like any other number of Android phones with a custom theme.
i'm assuming it's more than that, but it still looks a bit silly. you can be minimalist and still appreciate things like color.
i don't think we should act like journalism was in a great place before.
FB capitalized on a weakened industry, but it was the industry itself that was responsible for that state.
they really fucked themselves by not transitioning to the new market, instead insisting that it was the customers that were wrong. all these years later, i've yet to see a news outlet that would be worth the subscription fee. they're mostly recycling content from other, free sites anyway.
once the older crowd passes, traditional news outlets are done for. the ones that remain will be the ones that were providing the content all along.
phones and tablets are fine for consuming media. they are noticeably worse at creating it.
i couldn't imagine typing out long responses, sometimes with links, with a phone or tablet.
as for how many consumers still use PCs, hard to say. i know i don't go a single day without using mine. whether it's to play a game, type up a guide for someone to do something, or whatever else. on the flip of that, i also own a ultrabook that i use when i'm away from home. it's capable of doing many things, but it's no where near as capable as my desktop setup.
let's be real here.
none of us are happy with the outcome.
pretty much ALL of us would have settled for $2.4 million.
My dad has been using my old 6S until recently. We bumped him up to a 8 I recently quit using.
Currently I’m using an 11 Pro. Great phone.
that's because you are the product.
absolutely.
not every joke is going to land with everyone. sometimes they're not even jokes, just pointing out absurdities.
if they don't land with you, i wouldn't stress it. sometimes the humor is extremely nerdy. it's like the Far Side or Monty Python. it's not everyone's cup of tea, and that's OK.
basically it became it's own sub-culture instead of just being a situational label.
they're just insufferable. the problem isn't the situation. it's the mindset they develop.
it basically becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy for them. they can't get a woman, they develop unhealthy views, related to self-entitlement, and they become walking red flags to normal, adjusted individuals, which drives their isolation, and then feeds into what they think always happens.
a defeatist attitude never gets anything done. being a person is, in part, about self improvement.
if your skills won't get you hired for a job, you need to improve your skills. dating and having successful relationships is not much different. the problem with many incels is that they improve all these other aspects of their life (job, property, car), and then can't understand why the other sex doesn't flock to them. they fail to realize that hitting all these various metrics is just a part of the equation, but not the whole she-bang.
if you haven't had a relationship, maybe you haven't had the right circumstances, or met the right person. the trick is to understand not to necessarily take that personally, as recursive as that sounds.

GENUINE AUTHENTIC VEIL OF VERONICA!
it is true that the founding fathers could not have foreseen the invention of more modern firearms, let alone the idea of semi and fully automatic firearms. but they did clearly envision that a armed populace was a good thing. they also fairly clearly envisioned it as a equally armed type of thing. what was modern then would be considered antique and primitive just a short century later. but the spirit of the amendment still comes through fairly clearly.
in the case of modern society, fully automatic weapons are heavily regulated and are not, in general, in the hands of the populace. true some can be modified, but to be caught with such a weapon, is going to bar you from legally having any sort of firearm, as it's a felony.
Nokia's got you covered
they also nailed the minimalist vibe better.
