  • I think your tech suggestion is neat. I think your hope of a thriving Cleveland community on Lemmy is a bit too ambitious at the moment. I’m slightly active in the Minnesota and Twin Cities communities on here, but… they’re pretty quiet communities. The problem you run into is that most users on social media sites like this don’t post. Or they only comment. You need enough people to post so it’s not just one or two people feeling like they’re yelling into a void. The Twin Cities may be slightly smaller than Cleveland, but we’re actually interesting, lol.













  • I wonder if it’s because there’s no lower limit on what’s considered “beer”, so some companies will choose to regulate it as a beer rather than as a soft drink? I know I’m carded whenever I buy NA beer at major retailers - but Whole Foods at least has it with the soft drinks (which may mean it’s 3.2 beer by MN legal standards in some cases)…? I have no idea but DeMorgan’s law says the best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question; it’s to post the wrong answer.


  • Probably 1998, Apple donated a bunch of iMacs to my elementary school and that was the first time I had free access to the Internet before and after school. I remember learning about search engines in class (pre-Google - Altavista, Dogpile, and AskJeeves were the big ones), and I remember learning html and making a website as a group project in 5th grade. I also remember the stuff I shouldn’t have been looking at, mainly FunnyJunk, lol. I got dial up at home in 1999 or so, and got into role playing forums and Gaia Online.
