Asbestos can be used by kids as chewing gum:
Wittenoom’s roads were paved with asbestos tailings from the nearby mines and workers went home covered in a layer of deadly dust.
Children played in the lethal mineral, and some even stuffed it in their mouths as a substitute for chewing gum.
I wonder if a smartphone with e-ink display would be a good solution.
Good enough for secure messaging & calling apps, usable with their existing touch-UIs, yet devoid of the addictive potential enabled by vibrant colour, smooth-scroll, and video.
Can even still use the camera – just need to wait until you ‘develop’ them by transferring to another device/medium with full colour or a video-capable display.



















LoL @ the downvotes. Step one is acknowledging one’s addiction.
