Dial Up. Yeah I know the sound and I know the time it took to load anything with. But it’s something I won’t ever miss having. I would much rather be on a 1MB connection if I had to choose between that or dial up ever again. I also hated how easy it was to be kicked off, if anyone called the phone, you were off it in seconds.

    They’re just so fussy - like for example growing up we had to use floor lamps everywhere in our house because whoever before us wired up the overhead lights used a really low max wattage so we were stuck with a pissy lumen output

    Now with LEDs? I can stuff 1k lumen bulbs into a 40 watt socket with no problem! I can finally fucking see things now without needing like five extra lights! And I don’t need to worry about heat! (As much).
