Always wild concept to me. People bringing their $1000 electronics into an environment not made for them. Like come on, how long are you in the shower, do you really need to be entertained while washing your body?
Yes, I am sure you $20 smartphone you bought 3 years ago is functioning super well. I think you faily to realize that more and more people only utilize their phone as their computing device. No desktop, no laptop, just a phone.
the $20 phone I got is almost completely unusable as a phone, but for browsing social media/playing music/readin books in the shower it would probably last a few weeks while being cheap enough to not care about replacing it.
I’ve noticed an increasing number of people that use their phone the entire time they’re at the urinal in public restrooms. This takes what? A minute tops? I’ve also seen people set it next to the sink to keep looking while washing their hands…assuming they even do to begin with.
Tech addiction is tough. When people don’t like their environment they try to escape it and unfortunately the black mirror is there waiting for them. It’s not productive but it provides comfort.
Honestly. Been doing brief 1 hour no tech time at home now and it’s crazy how many times my girlfriend and I will do something, finish a conversation, etc, and then just go “well fuck” because we both sat at a computer or in a phone usage spot out of habit.
Back before smartphones, when everyone was bleaching the tattletale to get the phone warrantied after getting even a little water near it, there was a rumor going around. Kids with friends in Japan were hearing that people over there had waterproof cellphones and would be talking while in the shower.
We were super jealous, not for shower talking, but for the feature. I’d think ICP rated phones today should be able to handle some humidity.
Notthst I’m cheating with other women (seriously who can be bothered) my phone is locked with my fingerprint. As much as we share a lot in life I have not given her copies of my fingerprints so she couldn’t unlock the phone anyway. In theory she knows the passcode but since she asks me for it every single time she needs to use my phone I’m recently confident she doesn’t retain it.
People bring their phones into the shower?!

you can find plenty of phones for $100-$400
Plenty of new phones in say the US for $100? LOL Sureee.
you don’t need new phones, and I personally have purchased new phones (horrible carrier locked smartphones) for about $20 about 3 years ago.

There are Insane Clown Posse rated phones!? I need one of those because I keep killing mine because I spill Faygo on it.
Just be sure to keep it away from magnets as we don’t know how they work
You can spend 1 millisecond away from your tsunami of AI sludge!?
Can’t give your wife any chance on reading texts of you hitting on other women.
