I don’t think everyone is into that link tho (/j)

Huh, I’ve just seen this gif around multiple places and thought it was funny. Is this like a behind the scenes thing or something?

Didn’t know the seagull that got pimp slapped had a Lemmy account

The 00s called, they want their insults back.

(Also this isn’t even anime this is just a meme?)

Probably was more like this:

I think that’s the real most painful part.

Warning people what’s going to happen, sometimes years ahead of time, just to be ignored.

The best options I have found are

A) give the warning not as a warning, but as a benefit (EU stock market is going to go up, should have invest there VS dollar is going to drop a lot in value).

B) Band together to help out other Cassandras. If we can’t help people who ignore, we can at least try to help others who know.

C) Just stop caring.

Oh you misunderstood, I already know all this.

The comic is to point out why it’s difficult to grow adoption of a non-android / Apple smartphone.

Even what you think is a simplified explanation is, unfortunately, too complex for most as well. Tech literacy is REALLY bad in many places. Most don’t know what an “operating system” is, in many cases don’t know what a hard drive is (of any kind). Software is basically magic to them. Your explanation is great for people who already know the basic concepts, but sadly most of the population isn’t even at that level.

And this isn’t only the elderly btw, younger people are just as clueless these days because many schools don’t do computer classes anymore.

Well, it’s most self repairable, not most durable and resistant. So time to repair 😂

No, more like wrapping metal in rubber, as you had described. No need to downplay it.

It’s like getting the end of one of these lobbed at you:

Wasn’t there a small parody comic about this?

It’s true. Try hanging out somewhere outside your house with no modern technology for two hours.

First you’ll realize how long time feels without a smartphone or instant entertainment.

The second thing you’ll realize is how hard it is to keep track of time without a wristwatch.

People socialized more in person because there wasn’t much else to do and it was the best way to do so.

What is lemmy.ml and lemmygrad? I’m just a casual using Voyager
