This has happened to me so many times and there’s like 17 seconds of absolute panic and then, nothing
the most embarrassing part of being a “100 tabs open at once” guy is when you inadvertently close them and don’t even notice and there are absolutely no negative consequences

Yes, all that pointing!!! It was absolutely required for all ads back then. ROTFL!
What's up with the kid pointing at a screen that has nothing displayed on it?

It's Xmas 1982, and the family that points together plays together. Or something. Either way, this extremely early Computer Supermarket ad was basically a mail order outfit for Texas Instruments, peddling its TI-99 computer and various speaking learning machines.

Anyone from #Sydney and/or #Singapore here, especially those who made it from The Bad Site?
I had to log into it earlier for Hololive stuff, but I can't wait to be able to ditch it.
(Maybe I should use one of those services that matches old follows across to here?)

@stilgherrian.com So glad I can follow you here when Other Networks get to be too much!
(I also owe some financial contributions too… once the shock from the home loan deposit and first mortgage payment subsides, I’ll set up something recurring).

Someone at this coffee shop talking about how Bluesky is the most-downloaded social app for the last week.
I'm on Mastodon (bsd.network/@Rubenerd) most of the time, but I'd *love* if Twitter folk moved here too.
Come on #Hololive, open official accounts here, you know you want to!
