Not only are the disadvantages many, but what the fuck even is the advantage?

Very cool societal ideas. Please do not have children.

I don’t think you understand. Would it be nice if society was less dependant on phones for everything social? Sure. It is your kid’s responsibility to evangelize to their peers that they have to? Absolutely not.

This isn’t a societal question. This is about affording a kid a social life at all. If a kid doesn’t have a phone when all their peers have one, there’s no “oh well simply only go to events that are shared on something else than phones”, because there are no such events. There’s no “oh well only socialize with people who will make the effort to only have conversations in person”, because there will be at best one kid in the entire school that also doesn’t have a phone (hint: they’ll be the “weird” kid).

This is equivalent to your parents saying “you may only talk to people at school, you aren’t allowed to talk to anyone once you leave school.” Surely you understand that this is a surefire way to completely ostracize and socially stunt your kid, and for what benefit? The only thing you gain is that you get to not parent your kid about safe internet use, a thing you really should be doing anyway because they’re going to get internet access at some point.

If you wanted to socially stunt them maybe. Please never do this.

Presumably the mountains are generatable offline. The steam friend thing is easily bypassed by the infamous Spacewar loophole

Womp womp, bad game runs bad

The people playing Roblox slop are children without credit cards btw. We can’t have a discussion around piracy if we don’t take into account the fact that a significant part of players are minors who will literally never be able to buy the game legally (in the timeframe it’s relevant)

You can strip exit data in less than 1ms on a phone processor in 90 lines of js btw https://github.com/Coteh/exifremove/blob/master/src/exifremove.js

You’re delusional if you think FAANGs don’t harvest the shit out of every single but of data they can get on you, including exif.

Every site that allows image upload in existence now strips this data by default, but they do it on their server so they can get it first.

No because that shit is full of mold

Oh wow any more jpeg? Sorry the screenshot is very old and apparently Google has decided this would be the only copy.

I agree with the philosophy.

If you want to have an aneurysm, I present to you my setup from when I was deep into ingress:

It’s a built-in one called “sticker”

I tried playing it for a few minutes but I genuinely got incredibly lost and dropped it because if I wanted to err without goal I’d just go look in my fridge

Would they want to marry her if her voice acting was shit though?

Here’s the original picture if you want. My phone says I downloaded it off of Lemmy but I couldn’t tell your where.

I bought a lifetime license because I definitely do not need another subscription in my life but tbh the free version is completely fine
