Guidance counselors. One of them tried to convince my parents that I was on drugs…in 4th grade. Turned out that I had an undiagnosed mental disorder.

I’m also considering just getting a portable, 128GB FLAC player with a minijack connection and moving on with my life without getting involved in networking at all.
Yeah, I’d say that this is definitely the way to go. My .mp3 player only has something like 8 gigs of storage, but it takes a MicroSD card. With a 1 tb card, I can carry all the music I want (and realistically, given that your collection is pretty small, you could get away with a whole lot less than that).
Is it sufficient to set the Enhanced Tracking Protection to “Strict” (which claims to block cross-site cookies in all windows), or is there something else you have to do?
I was already going to crawl over cut glass to vote for her/against Drumph. Walz doesn’t change anything for me, but if Internet comments are to be believed, picking him does make me slightly more optimistic about our chances come November.
I before E, except after C, and when rhyming with “a,” as in “neighbor” and “weigh.”
Useless because it’s wrong.
I’ll keep using Windows as long as programs like Open Shell and OSSU are able to deal with the bullshit. But if there comes a day when they no longer work…well, Linux awaits.
I used to have one WAY back in the day. It was fun to play around with the HTML stylings, though things like frames did NOT age well, lol.
I miss the old Internet where you could easily find information, fan sites, etc. Now it’s all crappy social media and shit blogs where you have to scroll through a bunch of garbage before you find out that the person doesn’t really know what they’re talking about anyway.
Thank goodness for Firefox. Google is really doing their best to make the Internet unusable.
This would have been a hilarious Dexter gag.
You know that some guest DJ is going to play Rick Astley all hour long.
This is a wonderful idea! I’ll definitely be following this project.
I use one every day. I could probably write an essay on why, but one reason sticks out: tactile buttons. It’s great to be able to skip a track without having to poke around on a screen to find the virtual button.
I love the small-town feel of it. It almost feels like the old-school forums, where you felt like part of a community.
The relative sparsity of comments is a major negative, but I’m hopeful that that’ll change with time.
“You wouldn’t download a car.”
“You wouldn’t hit mute during the commercials on a television broadcast.”
Very cool! I love stuff like this.
I can’t remember, tell me…what’s his name? My name…is Michael Caine
In general, or on Lemmy specifically? Because I’ve definitely noticed that some comment replies on Lemmy seem to completely miss the point of the parent comment.
Even though I was in the prime age group for Digg, I shockingly never even heard of it until after I became a Reddit user and heard tales of its demise.
StumbleUpon was my main Internet resource during those years. I still miss it.
A tactile keyboard. There was a time when I could text with my eyes closed (literally). Now it takes me 30 seconds to “type” out a text that should take < 10 seconds.
Mitt Romney says “Hi.”
