The Ivory Tower's from which these fucks sit makes me sick. I am giving up my smartphone on my 40th and all this electronic bullshit.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey aroused controversy after labeling a Medium article “great” that claimed there’s no “bipartisan way forward” in the United States and that the country is engaged in a “fundamental conflict between two worldviews that must be resolved in short order.”

I'll still be connected via PC at work but I am done with it on the phone. I am selling out everything I can to try and keep my kids off smartphones until college.

Silicon Valley is not the real world. The absurdity illustrated in the Silicon Valley show on HBO is used for great comedic effect but the sad thing is that life is really like that there

I'm finding life is much better when I take Bay Area people's opinions with a grain of salt. Unfortunately people do take these opinions seriously because of the SV's people's financial success
No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session

Ridiculous. Fight back with better logic, better reserve & better strategy. Do not abandon the field to the enemy.

Yeah, you kind of have to fight this war (for now) online. Don't cede the battlefield to the Marxists and globalists.

It was the monastics that preserved civilization.

I bought an older smartphone (android) to play around with android programming, but it's never had my SIM card in it. My cell phone is a dumb flip phone, and always has been... being in IT people thought it was wierd, but honestly I spend 8-12 hours on weekdays on the computer, the last thing in the world I want/need is to be carrying the friggen internet around in my pocket...

I don't even text (or very very rarely). I use the flip phone mainly for that "other function" people use phones for... y'know, that strange thing where you talk into it and hear the person on the other end on the earpiece part... :whistle:
