@smveerman Oof. That seems really unpleasant.
@bram This is a big part of why I refuse to use mobile apps where possible, even though I nominally have a smartphone available to me. I have basically nothing that's critically dependent on a smartphone. The only exception is, like, StreetComplete? And that has a good reason to run on a phone!
(Even when places say that you need a mobile app for stuff, there often *are* alternative options available if you pressure them a little)
re: type of guy
@hazelnot FWIW, you're nowhere near as bad on this as the people I'm thinking of here (and your responses often seem to be less personal/egocentric and more to do with generalized social frustrations).
It's a good habit to unlearn but this post definitely wasn't about you!

type of guy
Interprets every single direct criticism of their views as a direct personal challenge and affront of their character... even when they weren't even the one being talked about
type of guy
Absolutely refuses to consider the needs or experiences of someone who doesn't look like them, even if it wouldn't cost them anything to do so, and insists on being Objectively Correct solely because their claims align with their own experiences and beliefs
@nick @derickr (And also that of @researchfairy, it seems)
@nick @researchfairy @derickr You have completely and utterly missed my point.

@mynameistillian I think you're spending a lot of spoons (involuntarily) on your shitty living situation right now, and I suspect that that's what's getting in the way of holding a job, more than college
"Why do you think I want kids to have no social contact???"
I said no such thing. I am asking specifically *where and how* you expect kids to socialize. That question remains unanswered here. Okay, "safe places" - *what* safe places? The whole point established in the original post was that there *are* no such places anymore.
@JimmyB @pezmico You "might" get stabbed anywhere at any time. And yet people go outside, they go to places where this is an elevated risk, even. Because yes, social contact is actually necessary, and that has a certain amount of risk.
If there are no social spaces for kids, and you take away their remaining venue for social contact (or never allow them to have it, doesn't matter), then where and how exactly do you expect kids to socialize?
@nick @researchfairy @derickr Ah yes, Safari, the browser which notoriously only runs on very expensive hardware that is completely inaccessible to a huge amount of people.
Definitely "the most viable option". Mhmm.
