Cold slice of pizza with a randomly placed large hair on it. You'll be so distracted and lightly stressed out by the hairy cheese plank that your original major stressors will be forgotten.

I will, I prefer taxis and never use the apps.

Yeah okay pal, you keep throwing around propagandist as if you just learned the word and need to use it as much as possible. Right now you're like an exposed nerve so I'm there's no point in me trying to have a dialogue.

I agree it's a very bad take.

So dissenters are crazy or evil instead of just being principled? Good to know. Blocking you now.

So NOW you all dislike Fetterman! Get in line, I was hating on the man long before he was elected because he was a proven bigot.

No it means exactly what the definition for alarmism says. You can choose to believe "it means nobody has to do anything about the problem and no one is to blame".

And quoting Mein Kampf only means that the politician in question is either mentally disturbed or dog whistling.

I have no idea. I wanted a standalone alternative to Google Keep on one of my lesser used devices and this did the job.

Bought the license and it does what I need, plus it synchs to my encrypted storage on pCloud.

I initially read that as "fashion traitor" and pictured her wearing Gucci in a Prada zone.

I like this idea.

The brain drain on Reddit now makes reading some of the forums I used to follow very painful. The level of discourse, the turn of phrase, the obscure references that now now end at the 2000s instead of going back decades. The depth of knowledge there has shallowed because the kids who grew up reading and upvoting our posts, who lived vicariously through our old ass generation, are now in charge, and many of them have no real world knowledge to share.

I remember life before the internet, I remember black and white television, I remember seeing the Beatles live on television, I remember how rap started because I was there, I remember nuclear drills because I lived under Reagan, I remember MTV when they played music videos, I lived through the first World Trade center bombing, and 9/11 in New York.

I went from the Commodore 64 and dialup internet in the 80s, to building my first computer in the 90s. I remember buying Red Hat Linux in a box at Barnes & Noble, and then slowly watching Linux get better, I even watched Android mature from nothing to where it is today. Working in publishing for two decades allowed me to see the development of ebooks. I even saw portable music develop from my walkman, to a CD player, to the bulky ugly ass mp3 player I defaulted to because I rejected Apple.

These kids on Reddit now remember some basic ass shit from the oughts.

I apologize for the old man's rant.
