When you're a kid, you don't realize you're also watching your mom and dad grow up. in c/[email protected]

Yeah. We had our boys in our early 20s. To say we grew up with them is to be honest. But I sure wouldn't change a damned thing.

Elon Musk Urges Mr Beast to Post Videos on Twitter for Equal Earnings in c/[email protected]

Great. Try 32mbps in 2023, with 3-5+ people streaming off it, and/or gaming on it, at once.

I do it too. I do it because our internet sucks and bandwidth is precious. 4k makes everything stutter. Especially if you have more than one thing in the house streaming at once.

The current state of my N64 collection in c/[email protected]

Jealous. N64 is the only retro console I always wanted and never managed to collect. I have NES, SNES, Genesis, Dreamcast, but never managed to get a n64.

How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though? in c/[email protected]

Hahaha, it's an interesting point. Myspace does still exist. But it's a shell of it's former self. We can only hope that someday reddit will be too.

Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds? in c/[email protected]

Eh, idk about that. Matrix has been around for a few years now, and I don't think it's going anywhere. Now, is it likely to ever be as big as Twitter/Facebook/reddit? Probably not. But, I'm not sure that was ever really the goal either.

I guess I'm all 3. I'm 39, tech enthusiast (tho I've long since given up on working in the industry), and have been using and occasionally contributing to the Linux community since the mid-90s.

My husband is afaik, still just on reddit. idk if he's moved to the official app on his phone (he was a rif guy for years) or what he's doing tbh. But, he's not really a geek 😁

The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore. in c/[email protected]

Honestly that's why we joined Cinemarks club. You get a ticket a month, plus another one for $1.99, and then as many more as you like for $9.99. with no fees. And you get discounts on snacks and drinks.
