There was a time when gooning was supply-side economics because this was how long it took for each nudey pic to load. Now it's demand-side because you spend your time finding a bro to share your jellyfin library with.

Where is that guy who would tell you how in nineteen eighty eight the Undertaker would throw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummet sixteen feet through an announcer's table?

Minor suggestion: mark the gif as non-looping

Personal Computers; Modems: How much Speed Makes Sense?

At one point computers managed to change the world...

I wonder how society will work to now go back to doing everything with paper and pencil, given how you can barely stop the machine from claiming that there are 5 R's in strarwrberry or that 1+1= sorry but you need to upgrade to our premium package in order to continue using your quota of tokens...

I mean obviously we here all use Arch btw Linux (yup, each and every one, no exceptions allowed, dontchaknow? 😜), but if e.g. your bank uses Windoze then when Microdick decides to replace their calculator with a SAS LLM app - and ban all alternative computation apps from their store (whatever its called) - then that will impact you as a customer?

Just like computers used to work fine offline, before MS claimed that it was outright mandatory to connect to the internet. LLMs today are simply a new round in the same old game.

Even add it in an app to mimic dial-up speed once you've been doom scrolling for a certain amount of time.
