Some of my coworkers were talking about using RSS to read blogs, which made some of the younger folks in our team ask what it is and why we keep using it.
Some still use iPods to avoid subscriptions and streaming services, my favorite was one of our sysadmins who showed me Gopher.
I’m curious about others though, thanks!
i thought i was the only one. i use one occasionally to keep downloads (ahem, updates) or streaming from sucking the internet connection dry… so i have some left for more important things, like doom scrolling and games. other times (or when the hub’s being used elsewhere) i just manually configure the os (in windows, ‘speed and duplex’ via device manager) to use a slower connection on the lan port. either method comes in handy here where the internet speeds range from “kinda sucks” to “at least it’s faster than dialup”
Oh yes, I’ve been doing that as well. I’ve trolled myself by forgetting and wondering why everything sucks. Haha
Glad to hear another person does the same. I too wondered if I was alone.
