I miss the $50 phones …

Now it’s a payment plan for X number of months for the phone - no interest on the amount, or a free (or reduced price, I think) of the phone if you have Y plan for Z months.

Memphis design for the colors and patterns, Y2K for the colorful translucent electronics, and Frutiger Aero for the GUIs.

I just bought myself a pair of parachute pants! They’re not nearly as loud as the wind breaker suits of the 90s and early 00s, but I love them.

Almost daily. I have treatment resistant radial styloid tenosynovitis so when that flares up nothing is easy to play.

Initially the games were those on the lighter side, but now I’ve moved on to more graphically intensive games (sometimes having to tweak settings, sometimes not).

When I want a bigger screen I bust out the dock and set up the portable monitor I bought for it - and, depending on what I’m playing I’ll either get out the mouse and keyboard or the controller.

I don’t have a set space for my setup so having the ability to pack up everything is a huge plus.

I have the 512GB LCD model and recently put in a 1.5TB SD card and am loving being able to install bigger games. So far I haven’t noticed any real lag vs it being installed on the internal SSD. That may be an option for you.

When funds allow I will be upgrading my internal SSD to a 2TB, but, for now, the SD card works fine

The demo was fun. Apparently I’m a mediocre heartless monster.

I remember us having an Atari computer along with some Compac computer running DOS in the late 80s. The computers I grew up with were models that we got for free from my dad’s workplace whenever they upgraded. We ran Win 3.1 until about '98. Win 95 was prevalent in the house until the mid '00s. Due to my dad’s job, we always had a computer of some sort in the house.

The computers in my elementary school’s computer lab were Apple 2es - in the 90s.

I didn’t get a cellphone until around 2004/2005, and then it was a hand-me-down from my older sister. The Nokia 5110 - the brick, complete with extendable antenna.

I appreciate this, and now I’m just waiting for it to show me family library games when browsing the store. I have games on my wishlist that another family member owns. A flag that says “family library” would be appreciated - similar to “in library” and “on wishlist.”

• I don’t see it when I browse the store on my steam deck or the mobile app. Unsure if it would show this to me on the desktop app.

Same here, but within the past year or so we’ve had to reverse course so we can stay within our grocery budget.

Blinkies - those small gifs that blinked to give the impression of glitter.

iframes - precursor to divs, but definitely added that “only works in IE” feel.

More contrast between font color and background image - it’s too easy to read.

12pt Times New Roman font - gotta squint to read and default font for everything

Flashy gif banner at your header and footer - bonus points if they’re the same image

All urls default to underlined blue and purple.

Mouse cursor with trails. The more sparkles, the better.

Clip art. Clip art everywhere.

As a woman who still has her uterus and ovaries but who has gone into the “it’s dangerous to get pregnant at your age” territory: I’m scared shitless. My last pregnancy ended in a stillbirth and that in and of itself has scared me. I feel horrible for being thankful that it happened months before RvW got overturned. I’m just ready to get everything removed so there’s not even an iota of a chance of pregnancy.

Some people started singing it not knowing what it was

And they’ll continue singing it forever just because …

Hi. I’m a millennial raising gen z and gen alpha children.

For something totally different: tuna patties

• 2 cans of tuna, drained
• 1 egg
• 1 sleeve of saltine crackers, crushed and divided
• Worcestershire sauce, optional
• Favorite frying oil

Crush crackers into crumbs. Set aside approximately 1/3-1/4 to bread patties. Put remainder into a bowl. Add egg and drained tuna. Add a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce if desired. Mix together and form patties. (I usually get 2 to 4 patties per can.) Coat outside with cracker crumbs, fry in oil until outer crackers are golden brown. Serve and eat.

Can also be made with canned salmon. My kids like eating them with ketchup or steak sauce. This is actually what I’ll be making for supper tomorrow night. You could totally eat this up with spicy ketchup.

Our whole economy here in Arkansas is tied to this organization, so you can’t really get a fair trial

I think I may start quoting this when people ask why I don’t like Walmart. I think the article helped convey how much sway the company has over the state. It’s scary. Glad I no longer live there.

And now I need some eye bleach

Not sure if this would count, but here it is:

• Stovetop stuffing
• Canned chicken

Boil water amount on the box in the electric kettle. Drain canned chicken. (Some brands need to be rinsed because of the amount of salt in the broth they’re canned in.) Add stuffing, butter (amount according to the box) and chicken into a bowl. Stir to incorporate. Add boiling water, stir again, and cover for 5 minutes. Fluff and serve.

I suggest using the low sodium version as there will be a lot of salt between the box of stuffing and canned chicken. Can also use leftover cooked chicken.

They left her waiting, knowing the baby was already dead, increasing her risk of potentially deadly complications. I see no problem here. The dead baby should have been removed.

She should not be charged with anything. There is medical neglect going on here and it’s obvious to me that her life was in jeopardy the longer she carried the dead baby.

I lost my last pregnancy at 20+ weeks due to premature break of my water. I didn’t even realize it had happened, the pregnancy was wanted even if it wasn’t planned, and I am still dealing with the trauma (and the hospital bills). All I can think of is I’m thankful it happened when it did and my doctor didn’t hesitate to induce labor - a medical induced abortion - so my life would be okay. (And I was able to get a copper IUD placed because I know my mental health could not survive the potential loss of another child.)

This poor woman… She is traumatized and our trash legal system wants to fine her and jail her. She needs support and love, not more debt and punishment. I screamed and cried in the hospital surrounded by support medical staff. She was in her bathroom…

This makes my blood boil. The government should have zero say in private medical decisions. Abortion is no one’s first choice.

Task failed successfully.
