Usenet and FTP were how we did it. Then we found Hotline in highschool (we had a Mac and a modem back then), and found some pretty sick servers to grab 3D software and games.

Yup I was there at the edge of that (about a year before Mosaic released on a Mac).

Aol added usenet in 93 and we got on a lot of college servers, also with FTP, gopher and a little later, Hotline. So much warez and shareware games! I was in 8th grade then, had a 14.4 modem and life was pretty great.

We’re all neckless after being cremated.

But if we end up on a necklace, does that make it ironic?

Hydro also creates methane releases as the flooded forests rot in the water.

They had incinerators in women’s bathrooms for burning sanitary pads, before tampons came around.

Trading for a shitty enough VP that Dems might actually be afraid to impeach him.

Trump aught to be impeached for the emoluments after the first month, but if a full fledged fascist is set to take his spot…

If your kids Aren’t too big, Hey Duggee is a good one too!

My kid still say squirrel like the b narrator from that show and it’s annoyingly cute.

I’ve done some dovetails for a puzzle design before. They were meant to assemble and disassemble in multiple orientations.

Depending on the layer line directions the problem I had was getting the fit tight enough to not fall apart, but not too tight to remove. I abandoned it because the PLA absorbed water and they became stuck after sitting in humidity for a few days.

Never knew the origin of corvette, in fact I didn’t know it was a common noun!

I’m more of a car guy than a boat guy, but TIL, thanks for sharing!
