  • Yeah “smartphones” are the issue here…

    The study’s authors recommended restricting smartphone and social media access

    This comes out of nowhere in the article. It is not smartphones per se. It is the social media kids access that does it, and no wonder, we all know how insane that is for an adult mind.

    While probably not possible on this scale of a study, they should have looked how much % of phone use was social media, and I am sure they’d have found a correlation between all the negatives they listed and the amount of social media they consumed.

    That also means taking away smartphones is no use here if kids can access the same social media via computers.



















  • Sorry, but talk about shitty writing…

    The Extreme Fit has been formally announced, and this dongle-like USB Type-C flash drive is available with up to 1 TB capacity. Sandisk also notes that it delivers USB 3.2 Gen 1 performance, and the starting launch price is $15.99.

    Oh wow, really, starting price is 16 USD, wow, I guess for something smaller than 1 TB…

    Then waaay down the article at the very end:

    **64 GB (curr. $14.99 instead of $15.99)**
    

    128 GB (curr. $19.99 instead of $21.99)

    256 GB (curr. $27.99 instead of $29.99)

    512 GB (curr. $54.99 instead of $59.99)

    1 TB (curr. $109.99 instead of $117.99)
