If you are asking if they do, probably not. If you are asking if they can, definitely. It is likely they can even make a functional phone, loaded with plastic explosives. The phone would be super low spec but might be enough to fool someone, especially one who isn't very tech literate.

I remember Bitty very fondly. Distinguished gentlewoman.

I felt that way too for a while, especially with .ml users at large. Eventually the thought of censoring myself because of them made me realize it was a bit ridiculous. I don't mind sharing a hot take anymore.

I used to be scared of that too but I got to the point I didn't care. I'm not a people pleaser but I'm free. Not scared to cause a little online shitstorm.

Netflix killing password sharing despite how easy piracy is. Massive increase in subscriptions

Trucks are undeniably useful, but now have become an instrument of ego, and a status symbol, hence the stupidity of modern pickups. Hopefully they close the loophole of "light trucks" so these things don't have to be so recklessly dangerous, same with SUVs.

Just use it for the porn. Occasionally will click on a trending tweet and immediately get bombarded with tons of Russian propaganda. "Ukraine are Nazis" "America first!" "Look at this poor starving (white) american child, Biden just approved 60 billion to Ukraine!"

All shit like that, it focuses very strongly on what Russia wants Americans to believe, in my experience.

Studied computers since I was 11, worked IT for 6 months when I turned 19. Now I hate technology and do exclusively handtool woodwork now.

I have many interests, if not too many. From cooking, woodwork and computers. Many of my friends are academically very successful but are frankly painfully boring and I sometimes feel isolated around them.

I like to cook when they hang at my house, I'll try to teach them how, some basic tips, etc. As soon as I glanced towards them again I realized they walked off.

This summarizes a lot of our interactions. As we get to a topic I understand and can speak passionately about, they sort of turn off. They talk to each other fine, but it's often internet drama, school drama or sports.

I'm not in college\classes and it seems almost impossible to meet others, especially others that are interesting and curious. I find myself bonding most to adults but it's isolating I can't find others my age.

Is there ever something that happened to a family member that you will ever know? Has anyone gone missing under mysterious circumstances? Is the place next to your great grandmother's friend's dad's house totally haunted?

I think that if an outright war is raging in the comments, let it run it's course. All parties are willing participants, free to disengage at any moment.

The exceptions should be when illegal content is being shared or illegal activity is occurring (CP, doxxing, etc).

It's always frustrating when a juicy argument gets locked because it's "unproductive". I was having a great time watching it unfold, both sides hurling both creative and uncreative insults, oblivious to how low they are sinking to. It's great!
