    Have you ever been sued?

    I’ve been “threatened” by users because I called them a moron. We know how serious internet lawsuits are.

    18+ warnings

    Something to note, is that parental controls exist for kids for their web browsing. I don’t get why someone else has to implement stricter controls when the parents are the ones who have the access to implement it on their kids.

    Screen Time: Yes or No?

    Stopping people under two doesn’t address the problem when they get handed a device after two.

    Did you ever tried Linux?

    I have Ubuntu on my home file server, and Fedora on a cheap laptop too slow for Windows. I have some others on a Raspberry Pi for funzies, and some other distros on VM’s for work practice.

    Headphones vs Earbuds:

    Earbuds are just headphones that go inside your ear. They're just more portable than over the ear headphones for travel or working out.

    Can technology develop pop music?

    What do you mean by effects with the music? Not trying to be rude here, but as a musician who also records and mixes songs as a hobby, that's a vague statement that doesn't really mean anything on its own.

    School Shootings

    Some other things that aren’t helping are that anti-gun people don’t know the process behind buying a gun, assault weapon is a loaded term, or anything about AR-15’s outside it looking like a M4. I remember the gun show loophole ended up being a crock of shit several years back.

    Alcohol-Free Beer

    I think it causes the misperception, as the taste of the alcohol gets reduced when you put more liquids into the drink. It's really just whatever liquid there's more of in the drink will overpower the other.

    Alcohol-Free Beer

    It doesn’t reduce the alcohol content, it just masks the flavor of the alcohol. The alcohol didn’t go anywhere. If I put a shot of vodka in a drink, and put more liquids in it, there’s still a shot of vodka in the drink.

    How did you color correct your monitor?

    Using light mode isn't color correction. She means color calibration, where you configure the color output on the monitor to be as accurate to real life as possible.

    Cover your webcam?

    That's not true across the board.

    A computer skill

    After working in IT, you'd be surprised at the most basic things people don't know how to do, and the infuriating thing is how some people are proud that they're computer illiterate and refuse to learn.

    Charging phone at the airport?

    There's reports of bad actors modifying the USB ports to load malware on your phones, and disguise them as charging ports. Though using a wall outlet is completely safe.

    Can technology develop pop music?

    You need to give further information than that, as that's a very vague thing to say.

    Is it necessary to give advice to children?

    Children are wise and know all answers

    Wireless or Wired Mouse?

    Sounds like you’re being incredibly lazy if once a month is going out of the way. Put it on the charger overnight. Also, do you complain every time you charge your phone?

    Wireless or Wired Mouse?

    If you get a good wireless mouse, they only need to be recharged like once a month or longer depending on heavy use, and even longer if you turn them off when not in use (I don’t turn mine off). Some of the battery powered ones last a really long time, like several months like Microsoft’s...

    Is it good for young people to play mobile games?

    Is this some conspiracy? Control the young ones and then deal with their biological parents. Parents of adopted children are safe.

    Why do more people rely on mobile phones to memorize things?

    What do you mean by memorizing things? Or are you talking about reminders?
