You had profanity filters for SMS?

No, but I think ICQ and some IRC clients had profanity filters turned on by default. I remember visiting a friend once and realising he hadn't turned the profanity filter off. I teased him about it for weeks.

Is that a cultural/national thing instead of an age thing?

I've never had texts censored by texting providers, they're not supposed to read texts in the first place (at least around here).


And still funny today, not all jokes survive that long.

Classical and in a sense neoclassical architecture literally stood the test of time.

Always seems weird to me that "classical" is stark white columns and sculptures. The original Greek buildings were quite colorful, it's only the intervening millenia that are responsible for wearing away their paint.

It is a fact they improved with prolonged exposure to the atmosphere and UV light.

Many of the architectural styles didn't get enough time to stand the test of time!

"Man fears time. Time fears only the pyramids."

They have terrible natural lighting. Wouldn't recommend living in one.

Not to mention the how little usable interior area they have.

That's why I had to enable the "pause updates for four weeks" setting on Windows. Otherwise every second update would break something somewhere and disrupt workflows regularly. With the one-month update delay you'd get the updates that fixed the previous update.

I was on 24H2 and recently went to 25H2 for app compat reasons. I havent even been updating my Nvidia drivers for months, stuck in the 5xx releases because whenever I update to the latest studio drivers which are supposed to be stable, the computer fails to wake up from sleep and hibernation.

Like how one can easily not use snap on Ubuntu? /s

What if they'd retest shoes after 6m/12m and compare certain parameters with the first review? Basically checking if manufacturing quality degraded.

these days it seems after 6 months manufacturers are just going to manufacture next year's model anyways: it's so annoying, you find a shoe that works well for you and you have a year and then the new model changes the cushioning or the dimensions or whatever.

To me this is the most important part of these reviews, what changed in terms of dimensions and fit, bonus would be if they gave them to some 100-120mpw runners to get a durability test and a re-review a month later to see how they're holding up, but don't think I see any site doing that.


Luckily this depends on manufacturer. I've been buying La Sportiva BoulderX approach shoes for around 10 years. I have like my 7th pair or something.

Something like YaCy?

Just like that! I will give it a try

It's still kind of an open problem. There are partial solutions, but not yet really an integrated one. There is Hister: https://hister.org/ that builds some sort of drive-by index of what you're browsing anyway. And there are "true p2p" solutions like YaCy: https://yacy.net/ but it takes ages to crawl the open web (and lots of storage). There's still a lot of optimization to do in this space.
