I agree with the thought in general ... I think the challenge is to get people off their smart phones/ tablets/ PC/ television/ videogames, where they spend 10 hours a day. I think it's bad for people's minds and bodies and especially bad for developing youngsters who need to be "out in the world" playing and learning, instead of in the toxic social environment that they've built for themselves.
And I agree SPECIFICALLY that "news" has also been designed to be addictive.
I've been tracking my own screen time, and it's much higher than I'd like. The tablet on the kitchen table is always on, and when I want to take a break between things its far too easy to sit down and get involved here or start reading those "trending" article about nothing in particular, or play a few games. Then DD likes to watch TV with us in the evening; it's our "family time" but that can take up to four hours!
All of this is getting in the way of me doing things and learning things, so I'm going to be dialing back my screen time (unless I have a specific "how to" or "what is" question that I need to have answered).

I know that common knowledge around here is that I'm an asshole and a troll, but you guys and
gals really ought to read my posts so you don't keep posting things I've posted about
sometimes weeks or months before you heard about it.
From February 12th, in the :The Freedom Convoy, Exposing Democrat Hypocrisy, Exposing Legacy
Media Lies, Crumbling Mandates, The Death of Tyranny via Covid" thread:

Me: Hey Howie. This you?
Check out the video. Howard from 1994. You'll love it.
I've already saved it in case it gets deleted like the other copy with tens of thousands of views did.

Did somebody change the name of this thread on me, BTW? I know it was a long time ago I posted it now, but I doubt very much I used the word "Ravikat" in the title.
If you did. Don't do that.
I'll only ask once.
ETA: Okay. Ravikat was the dude's last name, and Naval was his first name.
Shows how much that dude has been on my radar since 2019.
My apologies, but I see thread titles changed in here all the time, and it's a really, really stupid thing to do. Especially when Haken is investigating a possible bot and/or human hacking attempt on this site.

That's probably not a bad idea. Although, I don't know how you'd enforce it without violating privacy.

Trump will be fine.
He will also be your next President.

there are perverted brothers working together, some say they are pimp human smugglers who abuse women
they were detained in a Bucharest suburb as part of an investigation into allegations of human trafficking and rape
The Financial Times reported that Trump’s special envoy, Richard Grenell, spoke to the Romanian foreign minister about the Tates
Where is their loyalty? they are reported as being dual UK-US nationals, he also started pushing a bunch of jihadi islamo religious crap
Andrew Tate is reported as fleeing along with his brother, Tristan
Romania pushed by Trump admin to lift travel curb on Andrew Tate: Reports
