The Great Fire of Rome killed a lot of people and destroyed a lot of wealth, but was inconsequential to the Empire as a whole. This is more Emperor Honorius bribing the barbarians not to invade, then stiffing them and pissing off to feed his pet birds as Rome was looted for the first time in over 700 years.

That's impossible. You would've died of dysentery long ago!

Back in The Day, you'd write on CDRs with sharpie so you knew what each one contained.

That or the ol' tan cased dinosaurs.

The gray Dell helped me through many-a "100 Games!" disc...

 

This was cutting edge tech... I remember the excitement of replacing floppy discs with CDRs...

But the extent to which the fediverse seems to like to do this stuff just seems really extreme to me, and a lot of times what it’s based on is just weird petty bullying nonsense.

Not saying that it isn't a problem, but as someone who's been Around(tm) online, this is pretty par-for-the-course stuff.

Ah, to remember the glory days of Livejournal and Tumblr... and don't get me started back in the days when every fandom had a dozen sites which all hated each other for vague and extremely personal reasons.

Stress helped me lose 20 pounds in three months last year ^.^

I wouldn't recommend it.
