appreciate the comment nonetheless, good on you to help your brother out

it’s easy to get complacent when alone. i gave my phone battery to my roomie just today

yeah this version of android didn’t show up any parental settings with locks and stuff. does Android 15 just not have it like that?

this is nice

buddy bootstraps

it’s nothing to do with willpower in the year-long run - that’s the rationalization of “they do it to themselves, beats me”

it’s all to do with the habits and compensations of unfulfilled life situations. unsatisfied life situations will lead to screen abuse like this. it’s adding weight on my autistic loner ass, no amount of going out to meet people and pet dogs and willpowering through habits changes the grooves of that river. i’ve reached out to have a psychologist to analyze this in the meantime since writing: they immediatly bring up acceptance for the issue and begin by (with me) breaking down the needs involved with my screentime.

• calendar • notebooks, quick-info, diary • creative outlet notebook

then the chats and porn and videogames which are a longer haul to breakdown.

none of this willpowering thru- just writing that down to anyone stuck believing the advice of “just pull yourself up by the bootstraps.”

thank you, i got irritated, but make this constructive

exactly my thought

funny thing is i checked it yesterday put every app on block

today it’s 2-clicks with no wait time to un-block apps

interesting with parental control settings and digital wellbeing as mentioned in another comment

opposite for me. if i have a phone or screen nearby i cease playing music instruments, excercise, cook food, woodwork, repair clothes, juggle, flip cardtricks, draw, read books, …

thank you

where do i declare my taxes to you

i mean this is all true of them

idk i don’t chalk it up to a “just me” issue

FairPhone 5 and my family member uses whatever comes at a discount every other year when “their previous phone breaks down” (always software issues only)

yeah kinda defeats the purpose

more like “israel sheltered by nationstates against globe-wide revulsion from every person everywhere”

the demonstrations and countermeasures by people are fucking effective, downplaying ass titles from a “news” article.

yea those latter are imo cycles of powerfantasy continuing

i’ll check the korean ones

Mr ???

groyper Steve there

toxicity Mmm or y’know

yayy

okay, so fifteen minute blocks of dedicated activity you say.

What about time inbetween blocks of activity? Like a cooldown time… or is the fifteen minute block baking in a cooldown time? if that phrasing makes sense

okay

you’re right, neurodegeneration is the word missing.

thanks all, appreciate the comments stating i am not making sense to you all right now.

go figure i’m one asking for takes on brainrot and how to minimize it by display technology.
