I have all notifications turned off except for calls and texts. I tried the bell thing on for every channel i subscribed to on youtube it was absolutely hell. Thats what made me turn it all off in the first place. Every minute there was something new. And since notifications were on i’d also get those unnecessary shit that apps thought I needed to know right this second. Ever since i turned all notifications off my life has been so calm. Especially getting rid of the bubbles on app was so liberating.

prison population is already being used as slave labor for the state and federal government, they’re not gonna give that up for free if they’re not benefiting somehow. That would involved the US government actually caring about its citizens and them not being victims (see the current state of crypto scams and its criminal prosecution). I also doubt any company would pay so that they can use prisoners since it would involve them spending even more.

While the country often looks like the mouth of hell itself due to its dirty environment and streets, its GDP per capita is actually slightly higher than Uzbekistan’s. … Unlike China, India is not an industrialized country. So the pollution you see there doesn’t really come from industrialization, but from a lack of civic sense – people throw trash wherever they want – and a lack of moral consciousness, which allows them to scam others. The real problem in that country isn’t economic, but cultural. And you don’t want that mess in your country.

also I don’t know who wrote this article but is this really necessary to the discussion. Seems like more of hatred of Indians than just the scams

a lot of firms outsource customer service to India because its cheaper for them to operate. The same giant firms that spend billions lobbying politicians to make laws that work only for them so they can keep making money. Noble effort but this will literally never happen.

House. Anytime someone on team commits a crime or malpractice

that is so cute tho lol

That’s true, I guess it does depend on your situation. 99% of the time for me I don’t need to be reach immediately.

I have one phone that I check every now and then to see if I missed anything. If anyone needs to reach me I’ll see it when I see it and get back to them if it actually is important. Work doesnt need me if I’m off the clock. Also have notifications off on every app except my bank (and texts and calls) I have never feel more calm. Everything wants your attention these days

my phone has been on do not disturb since 2016
