My last Xiaomi phone cost me 200USD and lasted over five years. Screen started intermittently not working and bought a new one.

Even if you're voting Harris et al., don't you think they should be called out for supporting genocide? Have you even tried to convince Biden or Harris or your reps in Congress to stop supporting genocide?

Moreover, once they know that they can get enough votes and win while supporting genocide, then they'll know they can do anything and have enough votes to win. While all paths lead to increasingly fascistic governance in the US, the path you're advocating is the most accelerationist scenario.

He's partly right. We wanted to just punish cyber truck owners, but couldn't only target them and decided the first two groups were acceptable sacrifices.

I really doubt homeschooling has much to do with it. Some subset of every gen is good with tech.

The one homeschool kid Im working with this semester is terrified to use the telephone. Their entire experience in home school education was largely sitting in virtual classrooms

Its definitely not all students and, in reality, I believe every generation has been deskilled to diff degrees. So, while these skills are noticeably worse with Gen z than it is with millennials, many young people I meet come to college with some or all of these skills.

So I think you could go with a less extreme intervention lol

Teaching college students, I agree that phones and 'need' are largely the culprit.

Loss of typing skill, trouble shooting skill, and file directory skill.

Better at cameras generally

If we're focusing on media, recently, because of the word "antifa" being tied to anarchists and being used to scaremonger by the media. The media generally scaremonger with "communists" referring to external threats and "anarchists" referring to internal threats (unless its policy or a politician, those can be labeled anarchist or communist or socialist).

Interestingly, on Taiwan they have the Republic of China calendar (in addition to the Western calendar) which begins from the establishment of the RoC (1912 on the Western calendar).
