You still have to see the stuff with your own eyes to actually sed it, and make judgements.

Most mobile games are shit, so I'd rather use my consoles and PC than phone for that, and you can't play SMBX on a phone.

TV, $1200
Computer, ~$1000-$7000
Radio, $100
Camera, $500

Phone, ~$500-$1000

I don't see the downside.

Also have you ever been to a museum?
The information about the exhibition that the museum provides is like a 10th of what you can get by just opening up Wikipedia, unless its a really obscure subject.

Taking notes by using your phone instead of notepads saves paper and the planet.

And for communication you actually need other people. Even then, I can talk my friend who lives in America without needing to take time off work, buying a plane ticket, finding an expensive place to stay at, etc.

But alas, technology is bad, fire is scary, Thomas Eddison was a witch.

The fact that everything can be done with a single platform is bad because humans will need less and less other stuff to live, and making them more and more dependent to this only technology.

I'm sure people can simply choose to use other devices as well. Although my phone is wonderful, I still have a computer, TV, radio, and many video game consoles/handhelds. I've even visited some art galleries and enjoyed them all.

Certain ads about healthy defecation, human or otherwise, are also quite cringy.

PETA and its games. I like animals, but PETA really goes too far with this stuff.

oh yes, that...

They take videogame things to seriously if you want my opinion. Like, they did a game about a skinless tanooki running after mario, who stole it skin for a tanooki costume. It is extermely dumb, because, in the real game, mario's tanooki suit may just be... a tanooki costume, not necessarily tanooki skin.

Phones aren't that advanced, and fwiw camera quality on phones are always abysmal when compared to a real camera.

Bad jokes can be cringy, especially when they involve mayonnaise.

  • Newcomers in the community that post pointless shit in the general forums
  • The fact it's fucking impossible to make a SMBX level using Mega Drive colors
  • I kept seeing images of Overrated as Fuck* every once in a while on Twitter.
*Y'all know what game is "Overrated as fuck.
