i want to close the app and go on with my day

That's exactly the "problem" being portrayed here, the expected/ideal mode of interaction with social media is compulsive and perpetual. It's the best way to maximize advertisement exposure. I'm not opposed to the slot machine of content, but it's absolutely reasonable to expect users to want to go on with their day.

In Android, holding power and selecting "lockdown" locks out access until your pin is entered. However, if you're at a protest or something where illegal arrests are likely, turn your phone 100% off.

"Blank? Blank?! You're not looking at the big picture!"

Oh jeez, the security nightmares I've seen here keep me up at night. You're doing good work, fixing what you could from the inside of where you worked.

I think the kbin numbers are deflated because >90% of kbin users are on kbin.social and they are having trouble federating. I think the numbers will bounce back once they resolve the issue.

A lot of posts there are lamenting that Lemmy is harder to sign up for, so I think the influx of users comes from kbin.social's ease of new user signups. Hopefully they can scale up and get back on the fediverse.

Am I misreading this, or is there something about lust that's specifically ADHD?

One thing people forget is long distance fees. Cell phones basically did away with long distance fees, and we're better for that. However, landlines have some notable benefits:

• self-powered, you could call in a power outage
• high fidelity, yeah it was bandpass filtered, but everything in that filter made it through
• freedom of usage, it was hard-fought but you could plug anything into your phone line, from more phones to answering machines to computer modems. There was a whole market around "dumb shit you plugged into your phone line" products

We're still way better overall with cell phones, but something was lost to get them.

As the saying goes, "graphene can do anything except leave the lab"

Yeah, I started meds for this and it just... Turned off. Not much else happened and it was like I had taken off a heavy backpack I didn't know I was wearing.

Unciv is so good
