Am i the only person who is driven insane by the insinuation that WiFi is synonomous with ‘having the internet’?
No. It’s the Chromebook/iPad generation. I feel like they don’t truly understand the Internet or computers. Having used Windows 98 and onward, my friends and I had to really learn to troubleshoot and learn the innards of the system. Nowadays, everyone is in a protective shell like Chrome OS, iOS or Android. It’s all dumbed down now. Simplicity isn’t always good imo
Edit: Windows was a gateway drug into Linux
Buy AAPL
Then start plotting buy/sell points for bitcoin and GME (don’t want to risk forgetting those over the next 15-25 years)

Make coffee?
I woke up
Then I went back to bed
Said I woke up
Then I went right back to bed
Lay in bed for a moment and listen to the tunes on my sweet Panasonic clock radio alarm before slapping the snooze button. Then suddenly wake up to realize I have a clock radio alarm again.
None of you said, “prevent 9/11.” For shame.
As a non american, this would have never crossed my mind
I mean, I feel like that one has some cascading effects that really fucked things up for pretty much everyone on the planet, so if you ever find yourself hurled back in time, you might consider it.
Well now I’ll be thinking all day on the thought experiment of how one could actually prevent it, assuming they’re only a US citizen.
I guess you could send in an anonymous bomb threat on the morning for both towers, but that still wouldn’t prevent the tragedy of all those onboard.
We know where they went to flight school. Intercept and eliminate those hijackers. You will go to jail for murder, but you will change the course of history.
Turn the TV on.
Use the bathroom.

When I was dead broke, man I couldn’t picture this

Go online, just like I did back then. I’ve been online before the web. And it was more fun. And no ads.
I didn’t go online when I first woke up. I often though would check see how my downloads did overnight. In 95 I was still using the local collage dial in.
At least, we had a leased line of 38400 bits per second for the whole department. ;-)
For a time around 1998-2000 I ran the internet connection for a multi county agency on one 56k dial up and squid proxy server. It worked and it worked pretty well. We did however love it when the local cable company finally rolled out two way cable internet.
AOl, or the BBS’s that I was a member of.
Invest in Apple.
Apple, Amazon… Plenty of others to choose from that were considered joke stocks for some reason
Probably play some Crash Bandicoot, or go to my nine o clock lecture.
