- Comment on I was wondering why the €40k printer at work was choking with "simple" Canva PDFs 5 months ago:
I worked in that industry (for a company that used Fiery print controllers with some products), and this is standard practice. Our machines took forever to boot up because of limited RAM and slow CPUs. Even their latest machines, which we have at my current employer, struggle. One can only imagine what newer ones will be like with the current RAM situation.

- Comment on In the US we have signs that say No Shirt No Shoes No service. When did this become a norm? Also if I am wearing a shirt and shoes but no pants can I still enter? 5 months ago:
I want to say this came about as a reaction to hippy culture in the '60s, but I’m not really sure. It was definitely around in the '70s, though. America has become more and more relaxed about dressing in public since the '60s so stores and restaurants wouldn’t have needed to post such signs prior to that era.
- Comment on The original Gremlin 5 months ago:
One of the ugliest cars in an era of ugly cars. AMC, undeterred, followed it up with the Pacer. It easily outuglied the Gremlin.

I’ve been getting Reddit ads on my Fire tablet (that I only use to play games on). They fit in just fine with all the other crappy ads Amazon forces on you.

AI? Or a failure of the educational system?
- Comment on Would you want to go back in time when you were a kid? 6 months ago:
Up until a few years ago, I would have said “no”. Growing up during the Cold War meant always wondering when the nukes would come. Every day at noon the sirens would wail, reminding you of what you’d hear as you rushed to the closest fallout shelter. Car radios had special markers for the Civil Defense stations you would tune to when it happened. It was a lot for a kid to have to deal with.
But the nukes never came. The sirens stopped wailing at noon. The shelters, and the signs that advertised them, are long gone. The supplies they were stocked with expired and were thrown away. The great enemy collapsed under the weight of its own incompetence.
It was an unsettling time, but we didn’t have to worry about being apprehended walking home from school, or having someone from the government break down our front door with guns drawn. The government, to some degree, seemed to have our safety in mind (even if some of those measures would have been ineffective). It wasn’t a golden era, but it was better than what we’re in now.
So, my answer is “yes, yes I would.”
