No problem Dildo.
Debian Linux. Because it just works.
Runner-up: Mac OS. Same reason as above, but not free, so it’s #2.
Second-runner up: Free DOS because why not?
Distant last place: Windows, cause occasionally you need to call in your retarded cousin who is the only one that can do that one thing just right.
Historian here. Prove? No. Draw a highly likely conclusion that should accompany every telling as the most likely explanation? Yes.
I like the dystopian aspect. The economic one is meh.
My Side of the Mountain. Kid gets tired of family problems, runs away to live in the Catskills off the land on an old family farm. Befriends a librarian who lends him books on survival. He makes his own clothes from deer skin, catches his own fish with homemade hooks, lives in a hollowed-out tree, that sort of thing.
I am currently a bushwhacking bookworm. I suspect it was all that book.
I would adore having 1990’s Internet back. It wasn’t about media. It wasn’t about ads. Wasn’t about all sorts of flashy, colorful, mind-numbing drivel. It was just information, pure and simple. We still communicated. We still made friends around the world. But it was new, novel, and simpler. I remember when pop-up ads were invented and introduced. We thought that was bad. Little did we know what it would all turn into.
Yes. There’s always a point. The world will always be unjust. That doesn’t mean we should give up and take it. Fight for what you can, enjoy what you can.
…I’m supposed to wear gloves in the shower?
Did anyone mention Last Action Hero yet? The soundtrack grossed more than the movie did.
Feedly on the web and my phone (cause cloud sync and blah blah blah)
Newsboat on my Linux box that I ssh into when I’m tired of people and ads.
Losing your appetite, I’d surmise.
“…considering that over one-third of the floor was now thoroughly coated in what could easily be mistaken for a combination of bovine after-birth and maple syrup”
Dear god
If someone wants me to read their site, they won’t have it overloaded with intrusive ads, hammer me with popups, and plant tracking cookies in my browser.
If they do have all that stuff? I’ll still read their site, but they aren’t gonna make any money off me doing it.
I use Mutt and Lynx on a Linux box just to remember the good old days. I have a text-mode Mastodon client too, a little difficult to navigate, but it kinda replicates the old IRC feel.
I do have an IRC client, but I’m not patient enough to remember the keybindings to switch channels. Lol.
Dragging myself out of my house to deal with this maddening existence called life, despite every fiber of my being telling me to stay home and avoid all you annoying flesh-bags that just do everything you can to irritate me.
That and I read daily.
