Yep. It's always sad when a scene group goes away, it's always a big loss for data preservation.

It's not surprising, honestly, that's where everything is headed these days. With that said, I still find it a little bit odd seeing the robot cleaning machines that go around Walmart cleaning the floors.

Class actions in general are such a sham, I hate them lmao

It's not a good excuse for not learning to code, especially when you consider that AI can actually help you learn how to code and help explain things to you. It's a learning tool, but it's not a complete replacement for programming/engineering/etc.

That is honestly seriously impressive dedication. I don't know how someone would have the patience to do that lol

I mean, I do remember the time before smartphones and the Internet becoming truly main-stream, I remember the days of dial-up. Things were so different back then, and yeah in some ways much better. Still though, I still think the Internet is amazing years later. It's kind of incredible how much of everything there is out there, all for free. The possibilities are basically endless. I do kind of miss concerts pre-smartphones but it's also kind of cool to be able to record concerts too so you can relive the experience, in a small way at least. I wouldn't want to live in a world without the Internet, honestly. It really is pretty great. I can see how people would prefer life before the Internet too, though.

How fast it dies will be up to its horrible CEO, but it's definitely on it's way out. I think the final nail in the coffin will be when they inevitably remove old.reddit, the new interface is still horrible years later.
