It’s a cat and mouse game for contact numbers. For example, Android’s Messages app can report all phone numbers of sent and received messages back to Google. You will never get millions of users to change which proprietary app they use for texting, so I do my part to have no numbers, no contacts, and never send a text message.
There’s why I do not have or use Contacts on phone. There is no phone numbers in my phone. I have a couple copies of a text file with phone numbers save on USB’s and I think a BSD server. There’s no contact info that apps can scan to get other people’s emails or numbers.
HAHAHA That’s good. That’s a good one
There are things only sold on Amazon because that’s where the global mass market is. Even though Amazon does not have a site for every individual country, which other shopping website deliveries to almost every single country? If you want to replace Amazon, spend $5 billion to develop a competitor.
I think I would agree due to when I have been sitting in public somewhere with others sitting around, they have clearly been programmed by their phone, subservient to their master. I do also wonder if there is an IQ element to it. Having a lower level of personal intelligence so they have been conned into believe that they must have a phone that is connected to internet at all times everywhere.
Spend 2 months without cell service, without mobile service, and you will see how far gone many, many people are. I’m fully serious about live without cell service for 2 months, the world does not look the way you think it does.
Correct, use VoIP with wi-fi service instead of cell and data. It also makes the calls untraceable for location for best privacy practices. There’s no way to trace where in the world a phone is if using wi-fi to call standard phone numbers. For personal calling, not a work phone, some people don’t care about messages and calling when they are out walking, shopping, attending events. They want to focus on the real world around them, not phone stuff.
I’m open to hear if you guys disagree with me, but that is not simply about not having a smartphone as much as it is about not having cell service, not using data service. If a person uses a libre VoIP app, there is no need for cell service, and people actually can live happy lives disconnected from internet when they are outside or in public.
Society must revert their mentality and not expect constant immediate access to everything. Absolutely nothing happens on the internet for personal activity that can’t wait a few hours or the next day.
I use phone only for direct communication, zero multimedia, zero social media on phone. Everything else is done on computer. Especially banking, that is on computer website only for security, never on phone. I despise and resent using a phone for websites
Research about a case that works for you. Some like a Lian Li case, some like a Fractal Design case, a few like a be quiet! or Corsair case, or NZXT case, look at different options. Then, an x870-E motherboard, maybe a Gigabyte Master or ASRock Taichi, Ryzen 9950x processor, 64GB RAM, and a RTX 5090.
The 4070 Ti SUPER is the best valued card of the whole 40 series with more RAM over 4070 Ti and a wider bus over the 4070 Ti. You did excellent.
Due to overheating issues, I would not buy the best everything. Something like x870-E AORUS MASTER with 9950x, no x3D, and only an MSI RTX 5080 SUPRIM SOC, not 5090, 64GB RAM, USB DAC, and 1000w or 1200w. 1440p with DP 2.1 480Hz.
