Ex Nummis

It’s what brought internet to the masses. That’s what always kills <any subject>.

I’m from the before-times, where loading a single EGA screen in 4 colours took a good twenty seconds from a floppy drive. Printer was dot matrix. Internet was something mythical only possessed by the extremely elite or academia. You better believe I’m still astonished when I see a 4K game load in 3 seconds from an NVMe drive.

Some people call that mindfulness and pay professionals to achieve that state. Others, like me, consider it hell to be constantly aware of this without the ability to turn it off.

This is actually kind of terrifying. Just imagine, all those people went into it thinking the only ones who’d ever know would be the sleazy types frequenting jacking booths or xxx cinemas. And if someone from their inner circle would find out, they’d have to admit to that in some capacity.

Then, some nerd invents internet and before you know it granny’s coochy is out there until the literal end of time.

That’s the neat part…

I dunno, I’d rather be stuck in webbing than having my goddamn back broken.

Only if Reform keeps winning. So make goddamn sure they don’t.

Having just gotten an offer after 9 months of being jobless, I can relate to this. Although the 1k/month hike vs my previous job is a nice incentive.

No. And I’m highly suspicious of anyone claiming to be.

Remember: today it’s “just” the Palestinians and you may not be affected or care. But tomorrow, it could be you.
