Let her go. Anyone that doesn't appreciate innovation like this will just slow you down on your path to greatness.

Ah haaah, now it's just a key...

But then you take a bite in a moment of weakness, and you're locked out. :(

Why am I not seeing a picture? On my end this is just a text post where a guy said oooh yeah and nothing else 😅

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I suddenly have an image of the people in this conversation...

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago

Jessie: I've been thinking of dating other men

James: Me too!

Who's taking the photo? Do people really have extra phones around just for moments like this?

[–] pyre 1 points 6 days ago

not this thread again

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

They are making cameras now for kids without phones attached. Might be one of those.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

they also make cameras for adults without phones on them

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

That's ridiculous how would you even post the photos?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

I've never seen a kid without a phone attached

[–] chiliedogg 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I carry 2 phones all the time. I work in government. If I use my phone for work, it becomes subject to Open Records requests, so the city gives me a stipend to pay for a second phone to do all my city business.

I worked at a different city that didn't do that for most employees, and everyone just used their personal phones anyway. We got an Open Records request that resulted in me having to search everyone's text message history. I felt dirty.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So in that scenario, taking a picture like the OP would result in some raised eyebrows no matter which phone snapped the picture of which phone, it sounds like! XD

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

I have a separate phone for work. Not government or anything. I have a bunch of personal apps on it, but I don't like having my only phone be owned by my work.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Hanging out with a friend or family and borrowing their phone, I would imagine

You can type with literally anything with a resistive touchscreen taps head

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

It's capacitive :)

[–] victorz 1 points 6 days ago

resistive touchscreen

Whenever I type I always yell "STOP RESISTING"
