watching Gilligan's Island, you find yourself ignoring Ginger and Maryann while being strangely attracted to Mrs. Howell.

Hears of Fortnite.  Then remembers playing Commander Keen 4 at a friends house and gushing over the awesome graphics.  Before I had even heard of 'the internet' or Doom.

We rented out an airbnb not too long ago, and I was trying to set up a Nintendo switch on the Smart TV and for the life of me could not figure out how to do it...



this is coming from someone who considers themselves pretty tech savy (built my own computers, installed windows/format comp, tech supp for a lot of family members etc.)

attracted to Mrs. Howell.


That's just sick. I entered puberty just about the time Gilligan's Island went on the air, and while I never cared about Ginger, Mary Ann was a real schoolboy's fantasy.

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

There's a lot to be said about experience.

You see a thread like this and the first thing you think of saying is that it should be "you're".

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
