      Is Bieber a has been? Didn’t he just headline at Coachella?

      source
      • Zorcron@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        It’s fascinating really. He went directly from a wanna-be to a has-been, directly bypassing the state of “being”. Scientific studies have been conducted on the phenomenon, but it is still a mystery as to how this happened.

        source
      • wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I don’t know what ‘headline’ or ‘Coachella’ means so that’s a yes. Unless headline as in newspaper and Coachella as in a line of sex toys… which wouldn’t change the answer to the question.

      Skibidi Toilet isn’t really a comedy tho. It’s just giant mech fights and apparently the creator of it, some racist Georgian🇬🇪 zoomer lost all the rights to it after being fucked over by some company he signed a contract with.

      Yeah, wild lore both in the show itself and in the background. Got into it because my niece fucking loves it and just… no shit, it is a wild time.

    As a web dev, I feel awkward reminiscing about the things period of web history when IE was a solidly built, standards-compliant browser.

    It was like the IE team saw their history was causing them to lose all market share, and committed to fixing misdeeds since they held an underdog position. But for most, it was too little too late.

    For several years, I tested in IE, not Chrome, because it was most strictly standards-compliant, and I could be sure that if it worked there, it would work in other browsers. (Now, if you use Edge, it’s just a repaint of Chrome)

      • hansolo@lemmy.today ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I loved Opera for a good couple of years. Came back to it around 2007 and I was shocked at what it became.

        source
      • Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I rather enjoyed 2002-2003 opera. It had tabs and mouse gestures.

        source
    • tempest@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I didn’t start dev until after the chrome hegemony but I assume ie was only compliant because MS was the one writing the standards. Much like how chrome is essentially the defacto standard now.

      source
      • Katana314@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        At this point in time, Chrome was jumping bounds ahead of the others with standards, and most websites were specifically written for webkit, even beginning to disregard Firefox. Worse, Chrome was often going back and forth on how a certain new standard should implement, leading to, for instance, CSS files declaring 7 or 8 different ways of doing a linear-gradient.

        Your sentiment on Microsoft isn’t unique, which is part of why the web consortium wasn’t actually keen on listening to them most of the time. Them having monetary/OS influence didn’t actually lead to a lot on the W3C - they went ahead of them for most ActiveX work.

      It was really hard to use ie at the time. I worked at lockheed making a javascript repair sim, and it took 3 minutes to load in IE vs 10 secobds in chrome

      I agree; I was thinking the exact same thing. Maybe the original creator of this image lived somewhere where what memes were popular there was lagging a few years behind everyone else, haha.

    source
    • absentbird@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I heard it was in part a push from the pork industry. They were struggling to get grocery shoppers to keep buying bacon during the anti-fat fads of the 90s, so they spent millions lobbying fast food places and restaurants to make bacon a premium add-on ‘bacon makes it better’; then the fast food marketing machine slowly brainwashed a generation into bacon obsession.

    I remember a YouTube channel with some folks drop testing a bunch of phones using a drone - and some Motorola smartphone with a polymer display (IIRC) survived a much bigger drop than the 3310 did.

    I think the 3310 got its reputation because it was ubiquitous and at the same time somewhat tough - but it’s nowhere near as tough as say some Ericssons before it or some Siemens models after. Maybe this is also backed by the fact that phones got progressively more brittle after that.

    Naturally people reach for the low hanging fruit to make a joke.
