Encyclopedias were so common they were a meme
If you like what I’m saying, assume I am smart. If you don’t like what I’m saying, assume I’m sarcastic. Asexual. Apostrophe police. There is no god. Go away now.

All your encrypted email does is make it hard for someone to read your email. It doesn’t stop all the metadata.

People ruin everything.
heheh they use some kind of fingerprinting, a combination of your OS, ISP IP, and browser. At some point you can’t keep creating new accounts.

I was just thinking of D5 and the ridiculously hot brunette.
Nope. Far fewer. Houses are built to be showcases for expensive appliances these days.
That’s dumb. Houses I recall from childhood in the '80s were filled with books. Encyclopedias for kids, books about animals, history, etc. Libraries were a walk away. Schools had libraries (and in my case, the librarian looked just like Janet from Three’s Company and built the same. I was at the library a lot.). TV had plenty of educational stuff.
And how’s the newfangled Google knowledge world panning out so far? Lots of people getting informed?
Yeah, then what, Buffalo Bill? Shoot at what, who?
I find I have little to no choice but to withdraw from as much as possible from the world. By world I mean people, since they are 100% of the causes of the problems I can do nothing about.
Oh no, I was going to live to 500. Guess I’ll finish off my Aberlour 16 tonight anyway.
Baaaaaaaaahhahahhaa I just recently started rewatching Tennant Who and those Sontarans are hilarious
Ham is out, I think.
15·1 day agoSoftware and computers are a joke at this point.
Computers no longer solve real problems and are now just used to solve the problems that overly complex software running on monstrous cheap hardware create.
“Hey I’d like to run a simple electronics schematic program like we had in the DOS days, it ran in 640K and responded instantly!”
“OK sure first you’ll need the latest Windows 11 with 64G of RAM and 2TB of storage, running on at least 24 cores, then you need to install a container for the Docker for the VM for the flatpak for the library for the framework because the programmer liked the blue icon, then make sure you are always connected to the internet for updates or it won’t run, and somehow the program will still just look like a 16 bit VB app from 1995.”
“Well that sounds complicated, where’s the support webpage for installing the program in Windows 7?”
“Do you have the latest AI agents installed in your web browser?”
“It’s asking me to click OK but I didn’t install the 1GB mouse driver that sends my porn browsing habits to Amazon…”
“Just click OK on all the EULAs so you lose the right to the work you’ll create with this software, then install a few more dependencies, languages, entire VMs written in byte code compiled to HTML to run on JAVA, then make sure you have a PON from your ISP otherwise how can you expect to have a few kilobytes of data be processed on your computer? This is all in the cloud, baby!”
Have you seen the aamon animation version of him?
