Polls: Technology & Internet

Serious question. There is good reason to believe that people (especially younger women), are becoming increasingly obsessed with the # of "likes" or lack of likes they receive on posts. We see a competition where inappropriately young girls post over sexualized pictures to gain "likes" or males and females do absurd things to gain likes. People are getting their personal validation and sense of self worth from totally random strangers on the internet. This is not healthy and is contributing to major depression, obsessive behaviour, and other mental malaise.

Instagram tried cutting out "likes" for a short time and women went CRAZY, which is exactly why we should take a hard look at this.

What say you?

Several manufacturers of Android, and Apple iPhone, dominate the world market for smartphones. In the world, Android has 70% of the market, iPhone has 25%, and various other phones have the remaining 5%. Interestingly, things are a little different in the United States, where iPhone leads with 54% of the market and Android the other 46%.

So, which smartphone do you use? One of the big players or maybe a less common or older phone?

Hypothetical situation: let's say the population explodes and the Internet becomes just too damn busy. The world has to decide between TCP and UDP.

Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) provides error correction and transmission of data packets over the Internet, should datagrams be delivered improperly. Some common uses are file transfer, hypertext transfer, and email.

User Datagram Protocol (UDP) avoids the overhead of error checks and retransmision. Because of its speed, it's used for query/response protocols such as domain name systems and also for voice transmission.

There are several ways you can use your mobile phone. How do you most commonly use it?

Please answer when you are not driving... that can be distracting even when using it handsfree.

Remember in my question that I mentioned yesterday about hoping to start a business I am trying to find the idea logo, I generally wondering in your eyes which logo I made looks the best to you? And yes I made all the these logos, there is logo making apps you can search up and they free too. by the way I have asked my mom which logos are her favorite but I am still a bit lost because there are so many cool logo designs I can make.

Modern telecommunications technology has changed the way we use the telephone. Not that many years ago, every home had a phone connected to a landline. Today, most landlines are gone and people have mobile phones.

So tell us... who still has a landline at home, and why do you still have one?

I keep losing the latest message. And attachments always fcking disappear.

Also if you want to tell me below how you get pissed off. I admit I used to easily get pissed off but over the years, especially in the last few, I've greatly reduced severity and frequency.

Our dishwasher broke yesterday. I was informed that a replacement will take over a year. I barely remember the Carter years. No one will ever forget the Biden years. A year to wait on a common appliance. Socialists have made building things in America a Green Nightmare.— Matt Schlapp (@mschlapp) May 11, 2022

The comments below the tweet is full of people showing how he can just go buy a new dishwasher today or wait at most a week if he buys it online.

From the Home Depot website, two minutes ago: 108 models in stock for pick-up today, 17 more for two-day shipping, and 250 others for next day delivery. Maybe you didn’t check at places that sell dishwashers? pic.twitter.com/hlKRTuOHKy— Grey_Obelisk (@Grey_Obelisk) May 11, 2022
