I mean, it may be subjective, but Internet was open to public in '93, and divs were specced in '97.
It was more of a joke anyway. The layouts were often tables long after divs if I’m not mistaken - Comment on Websites: Then vs Now 2 days ago:
Yeah that’s not how I remember the early Internet.
More like gifs everywhere, wild colours, you have to have that fancy html marquee! And terrible layouts, because aligning divs is difficult.
Good times - Comment on Steam store pages are now required to disclose kernel-level anti-cheat 6 days ago:
Does anyone actually have a suggestion for a less intrusive alternative?
Do you realise how difficult and ineffective server-side anti-cheat can be?
Although it would be the only way to actually try and detect someone using a second machine for hacking/inputs.
All of this will become an increasingly uphill battle for the devs. - Comment on Blessica Blimpson 3 weeks ago:

That is fair, it’s what cashiers are there for.
I was referring to people who retort with rudeness to a simple offer of self-checkout.I usually go for the self-scanning guns with larger buys - I get to bag my stuff as I go and skip the queues and self-checkout bothers, so for me that’s a win win.
- Comment on Ok boomer 5 weeks ago:
I agree, but the argument is that this should go both ways.
Ok boomer is hardly offensive, unless the target is found to be rather fragile - Comment on Ok boomer 5 weeks ago:
Some people are too entitled and think everyone else exists to serve and fawn over them

What a resource hog
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 1 month ago:
That’s not up to you, or any of us.
Not maintaining non-js version makes sense for the business, considering how few people are affected.All we can do is move away to something better.
- Comment on Google now requires JavaScript 1 month ago:
It’s far more than that. Even on a basic search page. Ever expanded the ‘Peaplo also ask’ section, for example? It loads more results based on your scroll position or interaction.
There’s loads of little things like this, you may just not notice or care about it - which is another discussion. - Comment on Bitey 1 month ago:

Why did they not print the whole of ‘Affecting’ on a new line, that’s bothering me

Putting used oil into food when it’s not even good enough for frying anymore doesn’t seem like a recipe for success.

I’ve just had a DHL package today.
I have a camera doorbell- very prominent on the door, and the button lights up as someone approaches.They just knocked on the door… I was lucky to have heard it this time, but come on…

- Comment on Sony Increases PS5 Controller Prices in US, Europe, and More 2 months ago:
You’re still rubbing a conductor against a resistor - that will wear out due to physical contact no matter what.
Calibration would be a good.
- Comment on Sony Increases PS5 Controller Prices in US, Europe, and More 2 months ago:
They keep getting stick drift at insane rates (anecdotal evidence), which sony ensures is a great pain to get fixed, assuming you’re in warranty.
Ive just replaced one stick in my friends ds5 with the hall effect type, which should outlast the rest of the controller and cost £1.50 (which I’m sure would be less wholesale). - Comment on Anon misses something 2 months ago:

Just wait patiently for the realisation that’ll pop into your head 2 years later just as you’re falling asleep . - Comment on Posting the shopping cart theory because people had questions in a separate thread 2 months ago:
UK here, no coins in any shop’s trolleys.
I’m outraged at the number of people leaving carts everywhere. Do they have other people wiping their butt for them too? I don’t understand. - Comment on Jackhammer 2 months ago:
The way senses are processed is almost unbelievable.
When your eyesight is partially damaged (by a laser, for example), your brain will fill in the spots, so you won’t even realise there’s a problem until it’s too late.
As the above stated, there’s a blind spot (although I don’t think it’s smack in the middle) - there are tests online you can try to ‘see’ it.
Your sight also automatically enhances objects it thinks are important, e.g. a baseball you’re trying to hit.
There’s also no colour in peripheral vision, although the brain does colour it in. - Comment on the number of spam calls i've received since i started using this sim card 2 months ago:

People be hatin but I agree. in instances where the only goal is for a human to read the date, dd-mm-yyyy or even dd mmm(m) yyyy are better UX.

All too common, until I installed a camera doorbell.

Err, I don’t think that’s right. That’s physically impossible. Only electrons are small enough to visualise molecules and atoms, which is why you need electron microscope to see those.

It’s only small if no-one ends up being hurt

I didn’t consider that at all.
Glad you’ve managed to work things out in the end. - Comment on Thanks to science, men can now locate the clitoris with micrometer accuracy. 2 months ago:

To be fair, there may not be another option if he needs to get that to his flat and there’s no ground storage.
Horrifying. - Comment on Against all odds, an asteroid mining company [AstroForge] appears to be making headway 2 months ago:
I don’t think that viewpoint makes sense.
It’s like saying you shouldn’t throw out food because people elsewhere in the world are starving.
The two things are divided by a large gap of unrelatedness.
