AOL instant messenger was late to the party. ICQ started the instant messaging fad… that little “uh oh” notification sound is permanently burned into my brain.

Utter BS. I’m on the old end of Gen X and I’m still building PCs for people and troubleshooting their shit when it breaks. I have yet to meet a much younger person who can do it as well.

Hush! Don’t tell anybody about the therapeutic value of memes or American healthcare will start charging $5000 per meme!

Don’t you mean they’re down 1500% ?

Yeah, people mostly seem to enjoy those crowd cams. If it’s emblematic of anything it would be something about attention-seeking behavior.

On iOS the Orion browser lets you use Firefox or chrome mods.

Probably safer and might be easier.

Most or all of the GMO crops will both pollinate and germinate. The requirement to buy new seed is legally enforced, rather than a biological necessity.

There have been cases already where pollen and/or seeds have blown into neighboring fields and hybridized with non-GMO crops. At least one grower has been sued by Monsanto for harvesting and selling Roundup-ready soybeans that were hybridized that way.

That’s true, as far as it goes, but the amount of phenylalanine created is incredibly minute and is matched by other, “natural” foods. In the vast majority of people, the body quickly metabolizes excess phenylalanine. The only genuinely well-documented danger is for people with phenylketonuria, because they have a genetic variation that breaks that ability to metabolize.

Last I checked, which was admittedly years ago, the studies that showed direct harms were flawed, not statistically significant, or have not been repeatable. The early studies that led to its ban in the EU used absolutely massive doses of aspartame, well beyond what you could possibly ingest in a day.

I’m not saying it’s safe for sure but it’s safer than obesity or massive doses of sugar on a regular basis.

In dietary terms, literally nothing is wrong with it. There are economic concerns because the business model is to patent (copyright?) the GMO stuff and force growers to buy seed every year, instead of saving seed from each harvest. There’s also some concern that really successful GMO crops, such as Roundup-ready corn, will dominate planting and become a monocrop which could lead to massive crop loss if a blight or other disease evolves to target that particular strain.

The other things in the picture vary between probably-but-maybe-not-harmless (aspartame), definitely harmless (MSG), to actually helpful (fluoride and Prozac).

Bottom line: the meme, when interpreted correctly, implies that pop songs are generally good but somewhat artificially manipulated.

You mean today? Today is Wednesday.

The scumbag known as Marc Andreessen is a right-wing accelerationist. He and his cronies, including Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, want to destabilize and eventually destroy nation-states so that everyone lives in corporatocratic city-states. These are the people who think late stage capitalism is a step in the right direction.

I don’t have a race in this fight.

Honestly, I expected it to be impossible.

The stuff that’s already buried was put in as the city was built, and all easements and rights of way were baked into development.

Burying new stuff en masse would require new easements and that would either require negotiated payments or eminent domain and the legal fights that come with it. Even if they managed to get all the land rights needed, there would be a decade of torn up streets, sidewalks, back yards, etc to deal with before it was all buried.

As far as I know, input-remapper will handle any mouse, regardless of how many buttons it has, since they just show up as human interface devices.

I use, and really like, the razer naga v2 hyperspeed mmo mouse, but it’s about $100 USD. I’ve never tried them, but the Redragon mice are inexpensive and generally get good reviews.

All of them should work just fine with Linux, though any rgb bullshit might not be adjustable with anything that isn’t razer.

I’m that weird guy who prefers the cooked taste of UHT pasteurized milk.
