lol I feel like I’m living in a different planet. I’ve got leather loafers. I just pull the on with my finger—never considered they a tn be a problem. Boots, umm, have laces. I also wear sneakers—the only ones that have a crumpled back are those that I’ve knowingly abused by making them effectively slip ons (not untying the laces).

WTF is going on here??? I have literally NEVER known of or heard of anyone using a shoehorn. Even my grandparents. I live in the US. Is this maybe a niche thing in some other country???

I mean to be fair they are very cheap to purchase all things considered. That said I’ve still got my Kindle 3 I bought used on eBay and it’s still going strong after like 10 years I’ve owned it.

Have you seen those bullshit rerelease editions? SAD!

Apple ProDOS yo! Then System 6 and on.

First Linux was a Debian disto packaged with Linux for Dummies somewhere in the late 90s/early 00s.

It used to exist, and it was glorious!

You wouldn’t DOWNLOAD A HANDLE would you?

Kettle != tea pot

More like Dell likes to appear premium:

• Crappy Dell Latitude, Price: $6995, YOUR PRICE: 2995.

And on the website it’s like a $1000 laptop. And it still falls apart one year later.

I see you’ve never seen a Dell BPA

You mean the Mengele effect?

I switched from hosting my own mail for close to 10 years to using Fastmail. The webmail client is much better than Rainloop and Roundcube. I like it better than Gmail TBH. I’m very happy with my decision, but I’m only hosting for me.

I also considered Proton, but it doesn’t satisfy a couple of your requirements. It is a good value though, and the privacy features are tops.

The best value I’ve seen by far is Microsoft 365. The webmail for Outlook is quite good and you can host your own client if you want and connect with IMAP. It’s especially a good value if you use the family plan. Bonus is you also get MS Office and a TB of storage. Downside: Microsoft. But 2024 MS isn’t the same as 2005 M$.

But I’ve seen everything anyway. And I get on my bike and I ride off. On the grass.

This is like year 3. How much more you think they’re gonna mature?

In the US, at least, if you’re looking for Myasaki films, they’re going to be on Max and not Netflix.

Ok now do this one. What color is the donut country?

Missing the swastika too

Say more. I think this would be valuable to write out.

Centralized tv show discussions with episode discussion threads. That hasn’t happened yet :/

Yesssss
