    I’m not gonna gatekeep, but was it on a floppy drive? We played it in school on 5.24” floppies.

    I recently played a Floppotron video for my 7 year old and he was skeptical that computers sounded like that when games loaded.

    We didn’t even get into the 14.4 modem sounds it took to see a webpage.

    Edit: Oops I meant 5.25”, but TIL apparently actually 5.1”. Fun fact I learned back in college, is that CDRs fit into 5.25” floppies if you cut a slit and remove the disc.

    I regularly wear safety glasses, and regularly put them up on my forehead when finishing a task. There are regularly already a pair of glasses up there when I put the ones I’m wearing up.

    Having more than one copy of a tool is bad for me, because it allows me to not find it before grabbing the backup. The plus side is that once I’ve lost all the primary copies, I have to pay attention again because I only have one copy left.


  • Total CO2 will go up if we tried that. If we were smarter about reuse, like say, washing processing and resealing glass containers instead of crushing and remelting them (at best) we might be better. But plastics are much lighter, space efficient and durable. Which makes them less carbon intensive in many cases.

    Really we need less one time use or single serving containers of any material. Which isn’t likely unless society collapses and we have to live in local communes to survive.

    Cetirizine (Zyrtec) is pretty good and I think a tier 3 antihistamine. Allegra might be too.

    If you need Zyrtec D, save a ton of money and get a separate Pseudoephedrine and Cetirizine. We get a 20 pack of generic Sudafed for $6 and a huge bottle of Cetirizine that last a year for cheap. The big bottle is around the price of a small pack of Zyrtec D.
