Hopefully there is potency in someone who can speak full and coherant sentences! :-D You may be right but at the very least it’ll be nice to hear lucid speech again and we’ll soon see if it’s actually effective in the current climate! Wow the bar has been set low!?
Sorry but I just… DOB Septembuary 3st. It goes 1st, 2st, 3st, 4st, 5st or first, secost, thist, fourst, fifst etc…
When you turned the TV on you had to wait a minute for it to ‘warm up’. The black and white image would slowly emerge out of the darkness.
When the printer ‘ran out of ink’ you wound the ribbon back onto the starting spool and ran it through again. The next time you might need to turn it upside down to get any more out of it.
Wow, I’m amazed that you’re having to explain this to people?! I thought we knew this already?? Good on you for taking the time to patiently explain it so clearly for those that somehow missed that memo! Legend! :-)
Just for a bit of context I was “surfing the internet” in 1994 via Gopher, an early alternative to the web as we know it now and I used it primarily to find and download apps stored on computers connected to the internet.
In 1995 I was using the Mosaic browser and later Netscape to surf the World Wide Web mostly via webrings that were individual webpages that had links to other wepages of similar content linked to them.
I don’t recall and am not aware of anything that would resemble a meme from that time? This is a year or so before Dancing Baby which is usually considered the first viral video and even then that was originally shared via email forwards.
This feels like it should be cross-posted to !minecraft@lemmy.world but I don’t know how to do that? 🤔 Hopefully a few people start looking around for an alternative place to hang out. Even if 0.5% of that sub moved over to Lemmy you’d have a really stong community here!
You MUST re-open the community you helped build over the years for free so that we can earn BIG monies on teh ads!! Make us monies for FREE slave!! We pay you NUTHIN! You work hard for USSSS!!! Work when WE tell you too!!! foaming at the mouth with rage
I used OpenOffice then switched to LibreOffice in recent years. I also use Word and occasionally BBEdit but mostly stick with OpenOffice for as I only need simple text editing, basic tables etc Edit: to add that I also use Google Docs and Google Keep when I want something quick and dirty that’s going to later be available anywhere I might possibly need to access it
This is really great! I’ve also been quite lost but am enjoying the learning process!
One thing I’ve just learned is that all the different instances don’t neccessarily ‘federate’ with each other in real time (there can be some lag in content showing up in your instance) or at all. Only instances your instance federates with sync up? I think? :-) I see beehaw.org have had to cut ties to a couple of instances to help with the flood of new users and content happening right now. It seems while you can still view their content from your instance you can’t comment or post to it? I think? :-)
Yes, this is key, fewer but more vibrant communities rather than many mostly empty ones.
Oh he definitly WAS. Still can be on occasion. But the debate, trailing of into incoherance. Recent major gafs mixing up Putin and Zelensky and mixing up Trump and Kamala Harris?! His interview after the debate was better but not great and the harsh fact is that he’s as good as he will ever be right now and only going to get worse with time. As for the other person I was really mostly referring to, Trump has been a babbling, gush of incoherrancy for years!
