This comic was published less than ten years ago, and it's wild how obsolete it is

  • Did you miss the part that said "I'll need a research team and 5 years?" The XKCD character did it! SUCCESS!

  • It's Apple trying to squeeze the last drop from the Lightning connector before its gone.

    • How many people actually dropped Reddit for Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I did! I only end up back there if I'm searching for something like a tech problem and reddit is the only place my particular issue was discussed.

    • Can we prevent cars from sending data to servers if we remove their antennae?

  • The Future: "Hold my beer..."

    • Nintendo Is "Evolving" Into An Entertainment Company, According To Doug Bowser

    Jump

  • I really hope he was the best candidate when Nintendo were choosing a new NOA president (afiak, he's been doing a good job), but I feel his last name definitely made him stand out from the other candidates.

    • When did you finally feel old?

    Jump

  • If it wasn't going bald after high school or turning 30, it had to be when I turned 36 since I realized I could have pressed a magic reset button and relived my first 18 years of life over again within that time.

    • Billionaire Charlie Munger says that in order to feel happy, we need to expect less and that the world is going to get tougher.

    Jump

  • We need to expect less billionaires and that the would would get better because of it.

  • Same, nothing loads :(

    • A concept to redefine the internet

    Jump

  • Yeah, I agree. I wouldn't say it's impossible, but it would be a very steep uphill battle. What we have now works great and we shockingly got the rest of the world to agree on it. The current OSI model provides a lovely blank canvas for all sorts of communication. Can it be improved? What system can't? But from the days of ARPAnet to now was a long journey and this new Internet would have to start at the beginning and come into being like the Internet we all use today. I'm not interested in using dial-up again or waiting years to get "new" broadband. Too much investment is needed for such little reward.

    Also, I feel like the author of this idea needs to brush up in their Internet history because it can't be called Internet v2 for the reason you said.

    • Gender Surgeries Nearly Tripled From 2016 Through 2019, Study Finds

    Jump

  • This is my first time hearing "gender-affirming surgery." What a wonderful way to say it which frames it in the way that it should be understood.

    • why isn't the use of the bidet more widespread?

    Jump

  • IDK because they rock. I love mine. I'm even cool with the water being cold.

    • British nurse refuses to appear to be sentenced for murdering seven babies

    Jump

  • I hope she lives a long life full of mystery and pain, but she'll probably be isolated from general population. I'm not sure how the British penal system compares to the US.

    • 4 year old got her first linux kernel patch accepted

    Jump

  • Man this warms my heart ;‿;

    • New school bus route is a 'disaster,' Kentucky superintendent admits. Last kids got home at 10 pm

    Jump

  • Yeah, but then the damn kids never eat it and then it goes to waste 😤
