Bars, clubs, and restaurants have had public chargers here and there for over a decade. Absolutely wild it took this long.

Those ammunition backpacks are a gimmick. That dude is going to be a heat casualty with a sun burnt head, should have packed water instead.

That is a huge bummer for people that spends months working places with very slow or no internet. It is getting harder and harder to get physical media, and every single device needs to be constantly touching the internet to work properly. I just find it so ridiculous you can’t buy a brand new console, and throw a CD / cartridge in it, and expect it to actually play a video game.

IMO people are naive to see something for so cheap and to assume that there is no chance of it being made of lead or bringing whatever other litany of monkey paw curses to whoever buys it.

This sounds like hell, the movie experience is already awful.

Ugh, what can you do on a tablet other than art or some flavor or business bureaucracy. The mouse and keyboard is the most efficient way to accurately convey information into a machine, and we intentionally failed to teach young people how to even type. I am sorry but if you type faster on your phone than you do a desktop / laptop you don’t know how to type.

I blame whoever gave public school kids tablets and chrome books instead of sending them to computer labs. Now all of society is paying because we only taught one generation of people how to use Windows.

Public japanese toilets have bathroom cleaner dispensers on the wall with a picture saying to use toilet paper to clean the seat. The Japanese are notorious for cleaning up after themselves, as well as having clean public facilities.

Singapore is also beautiful, they slap you with a cane for littering.

Doctored photos were so much more impressive in print prior to photo shops becoming so popular on the internet.

I love that game and instantly recognized the screen shot from one of the secret project videos. Thanks for sharing.

This reminds me of having a palm pilot as a teenager. It played mp3s, and had pdfs, but otherwise you could only take notes and fiddle with settings. I read all of the origonal halo books off of it.

You Really Think Someone Would Do That? Just Go On the Internet and Tell Lies?

That was an incredible phone, it even had a little d-pad so your could tab one character around at a time when texting. Physical keyboards felt so good, but it made the phone a lot thicker.

I would also like to know why Dale Earnhardt is in so many maymays lately.

Worked in Romania to get rid of their last Communist Dictator.

There will never be enough 40 year old virgin memes.

On D day the USS Texas couldn’t physically elevate the guns any higher in their mounts to lob the shells at German positions as they retreated further from the ocean. So they intentionally took on water on one side of the ship, elevating the other side, and enabling the guns to shoot further.

I enjoyed this a lot, thank you for the nostalgia.

Only about 4% of the worlds population had internet access in 1999.
