As if the orange muppet and the idiots that follow along have any kind of cohesive logical strategy … all they care about is being right and having power.
And they don’t need to have either of those things … they’d just have to believe they do.

Or don’t travel with a phone at all. Take a digital camera and use that for pictures.
Anything else, just buy a used phone at your destination and load all your accounts on that, then delete and reset your phone and sell it before you leave

on Devastated father says his 9-year-old son spent $118,000 on YouTube ad campaigns for his Minecraft channel using a company credit card — bill racked up in just three weeks was supposed to be one $20 in c/technology@lemmy.world · 17 Sep 2026
The article I read at the time mentioned that this was the average bare minimum … like a single unemployed parent doing their best to raise and keep a child alive and fed until they were 18.
The cost is higher if there are two parents paying for expenses … and even higher if the parents have any bit of wealth

20 years ago I read an article that stuck with me ever since … it detailed at the time that on average, whether you can afford it or not, it costs about $200,000 to raise a child to the age of 18.
So selling the kid would cut the parents losses over the 18 year period

on UN Human Rights Chief Says a ‘Handful of Men’ Have ‘Almost Unlimited Power’ Over AI in c/technology@lemmy.world · 8 Sep 2026
I think this is our great filter … the filter that won’t allow us to explore the universe beyond our planet. We’ll send up probes and robots into space but we’ll be too busy fighting the handful of men down here who want to try to rule the planet. And those handful of men will keep our world as miserable as possible in order to keep them wealthy and as powerful as possible. Once that group of men dies off, another group of men will take their place endlessly. And it will be that perpetual small group of men that will keep us confined to our current state of evolution and keep us all down on this planet.
As Carl Sagan put it in ‘A Pale Blue Dot’ …
“The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.”

on Australians will be able to switch off social media algorithms under planned legislation in c/technology@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
Good … all social media should be heavily regulated and controlled everywhere. Social media has become as integrated and influential in our lives like newspapers and television and radio once were … they heavily regulated those media in the past, they should do the same for all social media everywhere now.
Right now, its basically just the wild west and governments are always playing catch up or just blindly being controlled by the corporations behind all social media
All I want to do is write a simple document. Many people have already written plenty of software to do just that … I don’t need it to do anything else.
Any company that wants to engineer anything else beyond that is just trying to justify to everyone why they would want to install a 90hp outboard motor on a little goldfish.
