  • Yeah, the ubiquity of it made it even more attractive to advertisers. Even more attractive when everything went from being individual forums to Facebook groups or subreddits.

  • Not exactly, but there was an "I'm feeling lucky" button which was similar enough.

  • Doctor Who fans circa 15 years ago. I enjoyed the show for a while after the reboot. They were insufferable and I stopped watching at some point.

    You know, that's what they act like come to think of it. A toxic fandom. They've got something good that I occasionally enjoy. But I'm not as into as they are so I'm not welcome. And that's fine. With Doctor Who I just stopped. With veganism I'll make myself some cool ass meals and never share the recipes.

    America is drinking more coffee but less of it from Starbucks

    Jump

  • There are two mom and pop food trucks with pretty good coffee (bean grinding, not Folgers) within reasonable walking distance of my house. There are a bunch of both food trucks and sit down joints with coffee, breakfast pastries/sandwiches, and good branding within reasonable driving distance. Even my shitty hometown has a coffee shop now and that place is garbage.

    Starbucks showed that there was an appetite for coffee that isn't just white label drip diner coffee that will strip the paint off the walls. It normalized it so that it wasn't as pretentious looking. They normalized coffee shops. But you're absolutely right, it's just terrible until they add 1000 calories of dessert to it.

  • Why did Bill Gates have to ask Epstein for secret antibiotics for his STDs?

  • Like all the incredibly salacious but unsubstantiated docs from when he was running for or already president that were included in this dump. Poison the well so none of it gets taken for truth.

  • You must have lived down the street from me. We had a few mom and pop joints, two local restaurants, and "the plant". They didn't get Walmart but now they've got the world's worst Dairy Queen, the world's second worst Sonic, and two different brands of dollar store.

  • Money and time. I was on the grind for 20 years and poor as shit for the great majority of my life. I didn't have the time to go do all the things I do now.

    So I'm the middle aged guy riding a motorcycle, playing in bands, drinking too much in public as long as I'm not driving, going to every concert of nearly every genre I can get to.....you know, living. I'm not in crisis, I'm having the time of my life. I'd say the last 8ish years have been the absolute most fun of my life.

  • Cop gets 20 years for fatally shooting woman who called 911 for help

    Jump

  • Agreed. I wouldn't let one of them shitbags in my house if they were offering me a sack full of cash and a harem of consenting porn stars unless it was absolutely required by law. If I get burgled I'm just going down to give my statement so I can get a case for my insurance company because I know they ain't gonna investigate it and by allowing them in the house my odds of dying increase greatly.

  • It feels like he's just coming full circle to Nebraska and deciding to go more raw. I think he's always wanted to be this guy and has just finally decided to stop making it pretty.

  • You're right as far as devices go, I was just adding a year or two because most people don't switch phones immediately at release.

    The other side of that is I'm probably a little biased because I was using the weird usb-b 3.0 micro connector (the long ass one) until a couple of years ago on external drives until it got too painful to open up my sample libraries on spinning platters.

    So maybe 9 years ago and my view is colored? Or between 7 and 9 years ago depending on how you're measuring popularity?

  • Football can be described in so many fun ways.

    Years ago when my rep was cosponsoring some bill about how video games were killing children my buddy sent him a letter. I don't remember the exact contents but it pointed out the rich history in Texas of folks wearing different colors violently defending their turf from rivals. Schools are training high schoolers to how to be in a gang as a sponsored activity every Friday evening.

  • Well, the good news is that it wasn't really popular in 2014. It probably didn't become popular until about 7-8 years ago and that was thanks to smartphones.

  • Same. Music gear (although my recent stuff has started going C), printers and scanners since USB became a standard, older networking hardware, older external hard drives (most of them before USB 3.0), and every piece of medical equipment I've ever dealt with. It was ubiquitous from the time USB started in the 90s until USB C got popular after 2014.
