@Ashedryden I live in New York and decided to go without my phone. I was a few feet from my front door when I realized I couldn't get the bike share bike without the app. I signed up to get the keycard. After it arrived, I found it doesn't work on any bike stations.

I thought about how to navigate the world without a phone number. The only people who do that are either very wealthy, or homeless.

It will never stop being funny to me that the whole "you can't trust Wikipedia because anyone can edit it" scare happened and now Wikipedia is the only trustworthy website because it turns out profit motive is the reason things turn to shit.

@freyablekman Being a logical, rational person, I'm sure the physics teacher changed their view in light of this new evidence.
