Yes, even modern Linux

Some people talk like that

Women get more UTIs than men as they have shorter urethras, so infective agents are more likely to get all the way up the urethra without being pushed out by urine

Because a letterhead on an odd sized piece of paper is so much harder to fake than a login over an encrypted connection

RX as opposed to TX. Receiver and transmitter in radio communications

You can get keen and competent without them being crazy

Sad isn’t it

And Outlook. My quick sig is:

-- psud

But on Outlook it is

-- <ctrl-z>psud

The op image incorrectly used the singular when they meant the plural

I use them a lot

Have you not seen 2001 A Space Oddysee? Kubrick couldn’t have made a fake moon video as realistic as the film from the crews of the six landers that landed and filmed on the moon

How would Kubrick’s film have fake livestreamed to the different downlink sites? Low orbits are much much faster than orbits at lunar altitude (90 minutes versus a month). How could a LEO broadcast satellite pretend to livestream from the moon?

How could they fake it so well Russia couldn’t tell? Russia could pick up and decode the signal from the moon when the moon was up. Radio direction finders were a thing back then

Just as LLMs become better every year or less. Lots of money expects a lot from AI soon

With the exception of smart phones, most of the things that make the now bad were unrelated to the tech

Climate change is happening because changing the way the world gets its energy is slow. Fossil fuels way predate flight

Lack of social cohesion is due to the car allowing us to isolate ourselves in sparse suburbia rather than to live in neighbourhoods

Wars are older than humanity but are affecting fewer of us now than in the past, though things were even more peaceful a couple of decades ago

The capture of almost all the value of labour by the owner class could probably have happened anyway, it started before computers, perhaps it was accelerated by computers

The OP image shows Google prioritising the quoted search term, but also getting the similar meaning results

Quotes tell the search engine you want that or something like it, don’t show stuff completely unlike it

Entirely possible. Boost used to be a Reddit client and probably has Reddit flavour to its formatting.

I must have used it, as I used BBSes, but that was long enough ago that I have forgotten a lot

Your Wikipedia link is broken. Underscores are formatting marks, they make text italic

Ives symphony No. 4

I think my version of the link may be broken in some clients. It works in the web version and Boost

I don’t think there’s any way to make the link work without making it a normal hyperlink format, which removes the special meaning of the underscores

Minecraft has private servers (at least on Minecraft java) as well as their own server platform “Realms”, also every client is also a server. Though the authentication system is a Microsoft account so that’s likely to still be online well into the future

I don’t know how you could do that without staying exclusively on open source

I’m old enough that the games I’m nostalgic for are on floppy discs on my shelf, but now the games I play are downloaded and rely on whatever company keeping a server up to authenticate me

Who knows what Microsoft will do with Minecraft in 30 years

Who knows what Steam will do with the licences it’s sold me
