Cid Vicious

First one I used? Either a ][e or ][gs at school. First one our household owned? A 286 (not any particular brand). First one that was “mine”? A mac LC2. First one i paid for with my own money? Uhhh I just remember it was a Dell, probably a pentium 4?

Well the “list” part comes from classified listings

Yep exactly. Luckily I’m not longer working at one, so I can uninstall it.

It’s definitely iterative but the newer eInk screens are higher res and color. Dunno how refresh rates compare on the color screens.

They were subsidizing them to establish an ebook marketplace. They’re no longer doing so.

I still have my Kindle Keyboard. It still works but the front lighting on new ereaders is a big upgrade. The software was pretty primitive back then too.

I’ve worked places where they required specific TOTP apps. That’s the only reason I had MS Authenticator on my phone

For anyone thinking of investing into Luckey’s company, I invite you to consider the fact that this man has access to the most expensive stylists in the world, and yet he chose to do that to his face and hair. Is this a man whose judgement you trust?

That’s actually the chickadee’s warning call so it probably would not work for attracting them. Fun fact, more dees means more danger.

The lyrics go “chicka dee dee dee”

I’m actually kind of triggered by the multiple bulky key fobs.

Not that I follow very closely but yeah I believe the original arrest was in Romania. Big cases like this can take years to resolve. Not sure how extradition laws would apply here.

I’m willing to bet that someone involved had lived in (or had a friend who lived in) an apartment with an awkwardly placed door like this and thought it was the perfect detail to convey how crappy the apartment was supposed to be.

Not stealing the pie.

Yeah, you should definitely have a massive hangover in the morning, too

I dunno anything about styling longer hair, but I’m going to guess that the tighter curls on the right look less messy. But it does seem like a pretty toxic attitude displayed.

It’s illegal in the US too. But there are still places that do it. Post-COVID a lot of places will have some sort of percentage surcharge that is not a tip but people assume it is and don’t tip.

For some reason I have strong memories of my childhood dentist having this song on. They almost always had a “soft rock” station on, which to young me was very awful.
