The Cuecat: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CueCat

Came at a time when there weren't barcodes everywhere and QR codes didn't exist yet. Companies had to publish Cuecat specific barcodes, it was much easier to just type in the URL by the time you figured out you could use it at all.

With Sonos shitting the bed with its app update and now the prospect of Alexa being destroyed by fees and AI, my smart home infrastructure is falling apart. So disappointing.

I have worked in the same office for 22 years, no one knows my birthday, what my hobbies are or where I live other than "downtown". There is work me and then the real me and never the twain shall meet.

Exactly what that yeehaw of a state wants, they all want a chance to play army and "Remember the Alamo". Backward rednecks, the lot of them.

I think you're referring to Konerak Sinthasomphone, who was a victim of Jeffrey Dahmer who escaped. He was found by some people who called the police. Jeffrey Dahmer showed up gave them a story about him being his lover and convince them that Konerak was 19 years old. The homophobic police released the 14 year old boy back to Jeffrey.

Back in the mid 90s, when I was a very low income earner and filing the 1040EZ, I could call an IRS phone automation and input my SSN and the relevant numbers and be done in minutes. Did that go away with the internet? Seems like they were on the ball technically then.
