Well that just sounds like a terrible deal all around. Less than half of the features that make a smartphone valuable (almost necessary) for modern living, for roughly the same price. AND it’s ugly, probably awkward to use, and best of all, nobody asked for this
Giving you enough context to actually answer your question without giving up TOO much private info, in order:
Cubicle job where I make just under $20/hour (min. wage for my state is $15)
As for family/friends, I’ve reached out a little bit, yes. But I don’t like doing it too much, regardless of how difficult my life becomes. Maybe it’s pride, maybe it’s empathy, idk. Either way, I just can’t. In short, I’ve gotten SOME help, but I won’t get much more
As for cost of living, I live in the American Midwest and split rent in a decent apartment in a relatively-safe neighborhood with one other person (hopefully 3 total in the next couple months)
And that’s about all I’m willing to give up online
Edit: I copy-pasted from a very similar response, so I had to adjust it to fit YOUR questions
Wait what
1-Because I’ve had some people online get real defensive when I’ve asked for sources
2-Cause I was a few shots deep by that point so I just kinda say things
I fully believe you (and I can’t believe I’m asking for this) but do you have a source?
Draw a pattern with the dots? There’s several ways to protect your privacy and thumbprints are by far one of the laziest and easiest to exploit options available
I don’t think anyone on Lemmy has access to that data, and even if they did, that’s a pretty fucking narrow window to decide whether or not an argument has any merit. So this comment is either sarcasm I’m too stupid to understand, or you’re doing some massive heavy lifting to shift those goalposts
I am actually, this is exactly what I was looking for! You’re a saint
I know you’re not the one calling her antisemitic, but holy shit that is probably one of the weakest arguments I have ever seen
