What? Are you genuinely saying that the Apple 1 and, slightly more topical, the original iPhone were a bad devices? Because I can’t disagree with you any harder than I currently am.
- Comment on Keep them secret 4 hours ago:
Can we talk about how stupid modern iPhones are? I can’t place it face down because the screen gets scratched. I can’t place it on its back because a camera lens is the resting point. To completely alleviate these concerns, I have to buy a phone case that costs half of the purchase price of the phone? I’m swapping to android for other reasons, but I will not miss the apple ecosystem for their design philosophy slowly becoming a fat load of garbage

I once watched a hamster die by aspiration, and another just kinda keeled over from the excitement at watching one of its housemates die. I don’t think hamsters are built for that life.

Not gonna lie, I’d elect a guy who can control hurricanes. That’d certainly be an interesting person to lead peace talks. Not to mention that everyone would constantly beg them to dress like storm.

- Comment on Park benches don't "open" until 10am 1 week ago:
In some places, benches are destroyed by mentally unwell people out of boredom or misplaced aggression. Sure would suck if someone bored or frustrated took bolt cutters to these padlocks.

- Comment on There are solutions to our problems... 1 week ago:
Oh, people just drove everywhere, always, anytime, and without concern. Ran generators rather than purchasing electricity from the grid, didn’t care about their car’s fuel economy because it didn’t financially impact them. Iirc, they alone were contemporaneously above the US in petroleum use per capita, and by nearly 2x. And the US is disgustingly over-reliant on petroleum to this day.

(Today’s numbers for perspective)
If you read the article, you’d see that Iran ended up a net importer of gasoline as a result. Iran. That’s like Canada becoming a Net importer of maple syrup because they had a custom of pouring syrup over their nipples and inviting people to lick it off at the turn of every hour. People in Canada would unequivocally be happy about it, but it doesn’t seem like the best use of resources.
As for food, I’m going to consider my opinions a bit more before offering anything.

I’m honestly still baffled. It’s not as though they’re congregating to commit crime. If they’re in juvie rehab, they’re actively working to improve themselves. Top 1% nimbyness
- Comment on There are solutions to our problems... 1 week ago:
How would a youth crisis center increase crime? What an absolute nonsense thought by nonsense people. “If we make sure teens are ok, then they’ll start stealing and smoking reefers” feels like the thought process. Dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.
I will say, it feels like you’ve inadvertently stumbled upon the nuance. That offering food requires more than throwing food at the problem, if you’re on any sort of budget.
However, I do recognize food scarcity leading to hoarding being fully mitigated by consistency.

Reasonable enough overview of the issue.
As far as food bank and soup kitchens, have you really never noticed the abundance of discarded bags and bowls? Heard the endless nimby complaints from people in the neighborhood? Encountered, in marketplace style systems, the random hoarding that needs to be stifled?
- Comment on There are solutions to our problems... 1 week ago:
Unequivocally, yes. Programs that freely give things beyond base needs tend to have anywhere from 100-200% increases in material usage. See: Iran’s free gasoline for a societal example, or help in most soup kitchens or volunteer at a food bank. It’s still the right choice, but requires slightly more nuance than immediately apparent.
- Comment on There are solutions to our problems... 1 week ago:
Technically, there is complication to the food one. People tend to waste what is given freely. However, I’m hard pressed to think of how one would waste a house.

I have this. I just ended up installing a curtain rod and a shower curtain that I remove weekly to avoid pulling off tile via gradual pressure fusion. What a worthless fucking shower

The poor thing… inflating is incredibly stressful for them and playing with them when they’re puffed up is definitely also bad for them. Imagine you’re having a panic attack and someone just comes along and starts sampling your sweat.

There are, after all, dozens of threadiversites! Once you notice a name or profile pic, it’s hard not to see it elsewhere. I’ve definitely noticed you around, as well! This place feels homey and human, compared to the infinite vantablack expanse of corporate social media, with its natural inclination toward seeing the same people over and over again without parasocial attachment structures. (Though I should probably cut back on posting)
But I’ve been trying to come up with a new username joke for so long that threads changed their federation url. If that doesn’t provide motivation, I don’t know would.
