It is, and there's plenty of small communities built around them: https://tildeverse.org And yes. Gopher is ususally included. :)

I'm neither a historian nor an economist, but as far as I know, there's been quite a few ups and downs like that throughout history, with Florence and Spain being the most prominent examples that comes to my mind. I'd guess t

Ah, that makes sense. I'm fortunate enough to live where we have unmetered SMS/calls/data so I've never had that issue (at least not while WhatApp's been around).

This. Some games would have a handful of different renderers for different setups, while other games would only support one specific card type (and if you were lucky, a software renderer). Those days sucked. Bigtime. If we can avoid doing t

There was actually a scandal about that in Denmark recently. Some journalists managed to get new SIM cards for other people without proper authentication. Repeatedly and from different providers.

I just don't see the appeal. MMS works well for things like pictures, doesn't it?

That sounds like an excellent idea for a tiny project! :)

I sleep for 4-5 hours, get up for about an hour or so, and then try to sleep another 3-4 hours. Previously, I'd wake up after 4-5 hours and spend 2-3 hours trying to fall asleep again. An hour of activity during the night seem to be mu

Pretty much, yes. But the situation is even more messed up here in Europe and I am especially happy that I'm not a native German speaker. It would cause a bunch of other problems, of course, but it would be nice if we could just have a

> Middle-class in developed countries, and largely specific to the United States From what I've seen, it's a phenomena in most of the Western World, and not just in the States. But you are right, of course, and as I mentioned t

> people care that it’s worse than it was 40 years ago Agreed. And since we're currently in an unprecedentedly long period of prosperity it's only a matter of time before some people will be taking quite a few steps back. My la

I'd argue that the major change is that people often aren't allowed to benefit from their property the way they used to. That places us in a situations were we are limited in a manner that I guess could be compared to feudalism. I

Blogs aren't dead, but they've become a niche product the last 5 years. In 2006, pretty much every stay-at-home mom with an Internet connection would have a blog, but as social media gained more traction most of those with small r

Yeah, it's annoying as hell. I especially despise when sites force me to manually select another country from a list, in order to get an interface in my native language. The country selection itself is trivial, but often the content wi

In a very long-term perspective, this is pretty much it. Off-site backup -- we don't have any redundancy when it comes to our own environment. There are also a bunch of other benefits but they pale in comparison to this one.

There's plenty of businesses selling business card web sites built on WordPress. They usually install it on whatever hosting the customer orders and then leaves the rest up to the customer.

For us techies, no, it doesn't really matter. For average business owners who buy a WordPress template and some 5€ hosting in order to set up a business card web site on their own, on the other hand, it matters a lot. So if your projec

This is the one thing that cannot be emphasized enough. Smart kids simply don't fit into modern society. Any kid who's ever tried to point out errors in the text book to their teachers can probably attest to that; teachers prefer

Didn't that have an impact on the amount of listeners? Sounds like commercial stations must have taken a big hit.

Yes, and it will take weeks before we have decent numbers, so it's dangerous to draw any conclusions just yet. The numbers aren't looking pretty, though: https://www.euromomo.eu/index.html
