Yep, software modem.

So if you bogged your system in any way while doing anything online, you'd DC in a heartbeat.

Additionally, the software part was buggy and prone to getting tainted beyond repair.

Driver updates also often borked everything.

And replacing the modem was only 50/50 going to fix your issues with it, so until the internet developed a driver cleaner tool specifically for the USR Softmodem, you often had to reinstall Windows to actually fix the issues.

You cycle through which nostril is dominant all day long, about every 30-50 minutes. This is to allow each side to return to body heat equilibrium and recover.

You pass 10-20k liters of generally colder than bodytemperature air through your nose in a day.

Which is by design.

It literally says 1/16/98 on the order date :)

I repaired about 1000 of these in a single year.

That USR softmodem was an absolute plague.

Exactly.

Yeah, I was coming in here to say similar.

Chiropractors aren't just not effective, they are fucking dangerous.

The universe doesn't care what you think is easier.

It moves, you moving from one point in the universe to another needs to take into account where all the moving parts are going.

Only instant teleportation, where nothing has had time to move, would work. But that would be akin to traveling back in time.

An Israeli firm bought them.

First app I installed with fdroid is Yet another Call Blocker and it's the one app I haven't swapped out for an alternative yet.

And isn't the solar system moving at like 500000 miles an hour around the milkyway too?

Teleportation and timetravel both have this issue where you have to take a fuckload of moving parts we don't even completely understand yet, into account.

You can vote in all other elections too, which would make a re-election of him have less bite.

It's through eroding all systems between local mayor and the presidency that the right wing has any power.

The president has no power if all layers below his position are steadfast against him.

I'll munch that cookie all night long.

Considering the specialized equipment, not her first rodeo.

She has a great deal.

Gets paid millions and once she's out, she can just blame Musk for Twitters downfall.

Yeah, no.

Narcissists and antisocial types have weaseled their way into positions of power since time immemorial.

They will continue to do so.

Doesn't mean fragile ego management and oh my real estate is devalued jackasses won't fight for return to office tooth and nail.

Nah, it'll just force an evolution of adblocking methods and tech.

Hrm, weird that that is the take away from what I said when I made it rather clear I work less now than I ever did before.

I had boredom and depression from having to be at work while not being able to do anything at any sort of pace I wanted.

If I have to be at work, I rather be busy, because being at work is what's horrible for me.

So I eventually fixed that by not having to be at work for anything but the time required to do the work.

At home, I can be idle by watching a 200 episode show in the span of a few weeks without any feelings of boredom or depression.

Sitting around at work doing barely anything of interest, yeah, that 100% causes boredom and depression.
