I think those kids are drinking age now

Because we should wipe away 2 decades of history and pretend the next thing is flawless on release?

Edge came in with a freight train of baggage, and didn't make it. It's absurd to frame this otherwise.

And Google established a lot of the standards that were both open and long living.

Yeah, Google has strayed far from the "Do no evil" philosophy in the last decade. But this rewriting of history to praise IE and demonfy Chrome from that era is ridiculous.

[-] Wrench@lemmy.world -3 points 1 day ago

Rofl. So let's white wash the browser history before chrome, then. Back when IE reigned supreme. You must either be too young or not in the industry to champion that.

Huh. There's an employee program that has small rewards for meeting exercise goals.

Yeah, the one saying that was claiming that after your initial deprecation after driving off the lot, trucks tend to hold their value for a long time. So might as well.

He's also the guy that's last minute panicking about saving for retirement in his 50s.

Go figure.

I just picked up an early 2000s used truck because I have a hobby where a truck bed is useful. $7500.

People were trying to tell me that I should get a new one, I can resale it in a few years and it'll retain it's value.

I don't need a shiny new truck. I'm going to throw wood and sheet goods in the back. And I can actually see out of the damn thing, unlike anything recent.

Yep, the people whose entire personality is combating the "woke liberal left".

You know, the people they portray is foaming at the mouth woke crusaders. When in actuality, 95% of left voters consist of people who don't give a shit about all this besides listening to the oppressed minorities problems and proposed solutions, and showing the smallest amount of empathy.

"Oh damn, I didn't realize you dealt with that shit. Yeah, ok, gender neutral bathrooms are cool. Whatever you need, doesn’t bother me."

Right: "screeeeeeeee!!!"

It's almost like building regulations are there to protect the people at the cost of unscrupulous businesses.

But nah, regulations bad. Free market will reward builders that voluntarily do things right.

Suuuure.

Wow.

She's not a fire fighter, so I can kind of understand her thinking that's even remotely plausible or effective.

But as a botanist, she should absolutely know that the undergrowth needs that decaying leaf litter to support the complex ecosystem that keeps the soil fertile.

Because they themselves are idiots. Either because they hear what he says and believe it, or because they only consume the propaganda that omits this word vomit entirely.
