Wild and magical, where we…upon getting our first connection to this wide world of wonder, would just explore. Clicking every link with wild abandon and discovering magic behind every one of them. No need for caution, Viruses were rare, Malware didnt exist, just spread wings gliding over vast lands of unbridled discovery… Not even realizing 16 hours had passed and you had missed sleep, the adrenaline of adventure keeping you going, wide eyed and focused.
God I’m depressed now.
the pesky linearity of time as we understand it.
when the internet was a wild and unexplored frontier, and we were adventurers charting the unknown.
god what I wouldnt give to go back to the days of the mid 90s, when the internet was nothing more than a collection of tech weirdos, with websites being nothing more than passion projects with no advertising, no SEO, no search engines, etc etc.
Thank you for helping to clear that up.
Ah, that clears it up. Thank you for taking the time out to educate a random idiot.
So, Don’t hate me for this, but I have to ask what is potentially a stupid question.
Why does this have to be done? why does each individual controller need support programmed into the kernal?
Why isnt there just some generic controller library that just lets any and every controller work without anything special?
I was given an old Galaxy tab 8 on friday. I played with it for a while, and it was super snappy and quick.
Then it updated
then updated again
then updated again.
And finally again.
Ended up with OneUI6.1
Tablets like 1/3rd as snappy as it used to be.
If thats how big of a shit pile UI6 is, then I pray to god UI7 never gets on my tablet.

There is no Windows 8 in Ba Sing Sei.
Dude, Just buy a a Wahl clipper set and avoid that headache.
Mine has a big beefy wall-plug one, and one that runs off two AA batteries. Also sturdy as fuck and I’ve abused and misused the damn thing for like 15 years and they are both still going strong.
These kinds of interest rates are why payday loans got the regulatory hammer to crash down and smash them to bits.
I think all the console makers sell consoles at profit anymore.
Hence why the prices are stupid high. especially when you consider they are nothing but slightly modified AMD APU computers.
I’m sure this totally wont backfire and screw over legitimate owners due to some totally unforeseen glitch or idiocy on nintendos part.
I don’t deny there was some hysteria around the subject.
but given how stupid the average human is… its probably better to err on hysteria, than to err on common sense, when you need to build public awareness and support for something critical.
lots of cars too, probably. Its totally not unreasonable for a car to be on the road for 10/15/20 years.
Y2K was like the ozone.
It became a big nothing issue because of the spreading awareness, hard work, and other activities that went into preventing it.
So like I said in another post.
The problem with crisis is always the people.
If nothing happens, cause of the hard work to prevent it, people riot over it being a big waste of time cause nothing happened
if something happens, then people riot because no one worked hard to prevent it.
what is that, some successor to geocities? or is the naming convention purely coincidental
