Greetings fellow xennial. What’s your best score on Oregon Trail?

Maybe there is a way for the human body to practice on an inert version? That would be cool.

If something is popular, that does not automatically mean it is good. You are probably aware of how collectively stupid we can be as a species.

They can’t be fucking serious.

May my first website be forever under construction.

Consoles and explosions.

If I dared to suggest we prioritize reducing the disparity in wealth over fighting a culture war

Are you incapable of breathing and chewing bubble gum at the same time? Why not both?

Nobody wants your fucking loyalty. They want you to wake the fuck up and get it through your skull that we’re all in this shithole together, and you need to start lending a hand instead of stomping on other’s backs to get yours. Because one day, you might need the rest of us.

Too often, the vertical location (Z-axis) information that 911 call centers receive is not easily usable

So…use the barometer in tandem with GPS? This is shit I can easily track from my personal Homassistant server.

Also, you know how to make GPS more reliable, secure, and redundant? You launch more GPS satellites.

They’re trying to ban the porn too, remember?

without much depth

How much “depth” do you expect to get out a group of animals acting “mostly” natural and without a single line of human dialog? With those limitations, I think it excelled. There were even a couple tearjerker moments, for me at least.

I don’t know what old internet you used, but the IRC channels and forums I used to run around on definitely had moderation. This was about '97. Maybe you’re talking about the late 80s when barely anybody knew the Internet even existed and it was just academics and ubernerds?

Why does that department even exists?

9/11, fear, turrists, freedom fries, 'murica. Things in the early 2000s got weird.

I am deeply sorry to gen-z and younger. They will never know what the US was like before the stupid times. For them, this is normal.

It’s definitely a Mac. I remember that case from middle school. Apple computers were huge in education in the 80s/90s. It was their staple cash cow back then before Jobs came back and they started chasing Starbucks-guzzling hipsters.

Yep. If you want a real computer instead of a cheap-ass disposable office machine, be prepared to spend quite a bit of money. That was a fact 20 years ago and is still true now. We had crappy sub-$500 E-machines and Gateway PCs in those days too.

I’m a millennial but I didn’t own my own PC until I was like 21 (even then, half the parts in it were handmedowns from my Dad). I would have never been able to afford a laptop of the time. Computers are an expensive purchase all at once. Phones come with subsidized plans. That’s probably why you see a lot more bias towards them.
