OK, it's time for another "Nothing fuckin' worked" tale from Drop-In Time today in case you have gotten the wrong idea about my skills or knowledge. Five people. Five (at least partial) failures. It happens.

Marge had an Android phone filthy with pop-ups and thought she had a virus (narrator: of course she didn't have a virus). We booted it into safe mode and started pulling apps off of it. Marge is 87 and had 193 apps because she has grandchildren.

The most succinct and accurate description of the Old Web I’ve seen to date.

The old web isn’t a platform, an aesthetic, or a technology. The old web is people creating and sharing because they are intrinsically motivated. Everything we hate about the current web comes from extrinsic motivations. Good luck removing them.

A meme showing a knight in full armor and a cape, standing on a rocky mountain peak and looking out at a vast, cloudy landscape. The text overlaid on the image reads, "Sometimes when I talk I can physically feel myself pick the wrong dialogue option."
