    67 did it for me. I tried to understand it and reflexivity said “well that’s fucking dumb” before realizing that’s literally the point. And we’ve all done anti-authority shit at some point. This random act of nothing is what a constantly surveilled generation does to elicit a reaction against a system that has proven it can ignore everyone.

    These youngunns and their docker containers…

    It’s fine and all, but I prefer to run stuff without them

      depends on your job role but for my job we have 1 project that’s not containerized and each time we have issues with it I want to crush my fucking balls

      containerization is incredibly wasteful but it does solve some problems

      I was the same and then I rebuilt a server that originally took me forever to get up and running with all it’s weird requirements and had it going in docker in like 30 minutes with my old settings imported in.

      I still compartmentalize individual programs into their own VM/CTs though, even when using docker.

      Still have no idea how to package one together myself though.

      If this is Android, you might investigate Settings->Display & brightness->Font and try sliding the Font size slider there.

    Any sport injuries or faceplant that would have been a mild 2 day annoyance in your 20 is now a permanent damage you can still feel after 3 months or more.

    I refuse to support or use subscription software, because back in my day we paid for software once and if we wanted a newer version we had the choice to just stew in our bug ridden version lacking the latest features forever and WE WERE HAPPY TO DO SO

      I miss the days where you would actually own a copy of what you purchased. I also miss going to movie rental places.

    “I used to be ‘with it’, then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’, and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary to me”

    I’ve always been an old soul, and unfortunately an old body as well. I had shingles when I was 10, developed cataracts at 30 and arthritis at 35.

    EDIT:

    I think it was 12 not 10 that I had shingles. I also had shingles again a few years ago.

      Sounds like a speed-run of living to be 100.

    Making noises when sitting down or getting up, as if it was an effort to do it. :)

    Im not doing it yet but it will probably come in a while.

    I’ve turned into the work mom for the younger ones. Guess it’s all the tattoos and piercings that make me more approachable. I have a collection of young adults. I want scream “I’m not old enough to be your mother yet” except…well, 38. :/

    It was around 2016, I was about 25, and I went camping with some friends for a few days.

    Up until that point, I felt like I had managed to stay relatively “with-it”

    But we had little to no Internet access for a few days, because that’s how camping works.

    I came back and dat boi was all over the internet.

    I had no idea what was going on with that meme, it never quite clicked for me

    And from there it was all downhill, more and more new memes just stopped making sense to me.

    I notice more stupid kids nuances and realize it is not a cantankerous perspective, but rather the naïveté of adolescent minds with dichotomous scopes of self awareness regardless of age.

      Someone who was my age when I was a stupid kid told me that me being 16 and them being 40 meant they had 22 years experience in being an adult, and I had zero.

      It took a while to realize how right that was.
