I’m not sure, but I think part of the problem is that the votes are “real”. Since every instance has to have the same number of up/down votes they can’t get away with fudging the numbers. I have no hard evidence that reddit does, but I suspect they do to increase engagement.

There are a few nuggets that are still only obvious when you actually think about it. Like don’t fight with a hill behind you because you might need to retreat, do fight with a forest behind you for the same reason.

It’s hard to have this argument without coming across as advocating for eugenics, but I completely agree. The fact that increasing women’s education is so strongly correlated with decreased population growth is not a coincidence.

The difference between a eugenicists and whatever the hell I am is that I think the solution is to educate more people, not to control their right to reproduce.

Nice

And I wanna eat yours out?

Never tried. Apparently yes, but I sound like a child reading each word like, “yeah, that’s definitely’vested’ I’m sure!”. I doubt the next generation will except a few people.

I see your point, but I’m not sure I believe somebody could lie about it’s contents even in the distant future with how many legible copies there are.

On another note, this website exists which is super cool! https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/downloads

I find cursive is very useful when writing notes that only I will ever need to read. Reading and writing another persons cursive has never been easy for me and it has never impacted my life with one exception. I cannot read post cards from my aunt. Oh, and that time a decade ago when I had to fill out the “I will not cheat” pledge on the back of the SAT.

Turns out if you need to write something with speed we have these things that are like typewriters, but they don’t even jam!

That always goes well, I’ll make the Kickstarter!

I’m an American late millennial, I definitely remember this. I’m guessing it’s 85-95 millennials.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out why they got rid of playlist radio. It makes Spotify so much worse and I can’t imagine it saves them any money

You’re missing the only one that actually works for me. Get up at roughly the same time every morning. I won’t do it, but I should.

Graphing is still necessary for the blind, but it’s more common to use a plastic sheet on a hard rubber clipboard with a stylus that causes the plastic to rise up when it’s pressed with a bit of force. (Though while googling for it I found plenty of examples like yours so maybe less common than I thought)

Brother is my current second favorite major brand. They are breaking a lot more than they used to and the parts that break aren’t worth replacing. Canon is putting out alright printers that seem a bit more robust to me. But honestly if you just put in the money up front even hp isn’t total trash. To get a not trash hp will cost $400, and there’s no guarantee that it won’t get a firmware update that makes it impossible to use third party ink, but it won’t require hpsmart and make you want to kill yourself. So yeah, spend more on your printer, don’t get an hp, and if you’re not gonna spend more on your printer get a black and white laser Canon imo.
