Wait how? That sounds useful to know.

I think I’d be able to agree with you if new notepad didn’t take a noticeable time to load. It used to be the 2nd fastest thing I could launch, after the Run dialog itself.

Every time I read the wiki list on this, I find new ones I didn’t know about.

I figure they are just joking, using the opportunity to pretend-razz a boomer as satire.

I remember someone telling me they uncapped their modem and got 133 megabytes per second on an ICQ transfer. I called them on their BS, but it’s crazy that with Nvme and Fibre connections we’re finally there.

I don’t understand that either! Sometimes I think people are so numerally illiterate and emotionally butthurt that they completely disregard carrying and opportunity costs.

This is an over generalization. How can you support that this is true other than for yourself alone?

Sometimes the unfiltered things I discuss in private are for the purpose of getting feedback. A brainstorming space without any of the regular inhibitions censoring free thought. I’m not looking for affirmation, but genuinely want to see what the unfiltered feedback would be, and am ready to change my option on a dime.

Take this to the next level: you do this in your own mind / imagination before you speak. You think things that you don’t say. So is everything in your mind, even things you think are wrong and choose not to express, your true self? And you should be ashamed of shameful thoughts?

Also what do you even mean by “true” self? If I act differently around different groups of people, which one is true?

For one liners, this is the way.

Just a nitpick (I’m still against trickle down), but how do we know those sectors boomed from the stimulus, vs from people using those services more because they were quarantined? Video conference platforms also took off—that wasn’t from gen pop citizens spending their stimulus.

Yup! That’s what I use for all restarts and shutdowns
