It’s been fast like that since the end of WWII.
My parents were born in the early 60s and they saw records replaced with eight tracks and then cassettes and then CDs and then mp3s and now streaming.
Answering machines were a novelty when my parents were children and now we have cell phones.
The internet wasn’t even something you could have imagined in your wildest dreams in the 1970s.

Yep, 37 here.
I found Digg just before the Exodus and hung around Reddit for a decade or so then split during the Reddit blackout.

Seeing as the Jesus of the Bible was absolutely a far-left liberal commie bastard by their standards, I can’t wait to see the looks on their faces when they’re the only ones not raptured at the end.

Don’t forget preventable disease or easily treated medical issues.

A friend of mine had two, named them Amy and Rory

I live in rural Ohio and I drive about 40 miles (65 km) round trip a day just getting to and from work, and that’s pretty average for a rural area.

In the rural areas, which account for most of the land area of the US, things are far enough apart that it makes it impossible to survive without a vehicle.

By sacrificing emissions.
You can get more power per stroke if you don’t care about emissions, and that can get you a better fuel economy, but you may fail your local e-check if it’s tuned.

Volkswagen got in trouble for designing their cars to change the engine tuning when it detected it was connected to a testing rig.

Everything heavier than lithium was created either in the heart of a star over it’s lifetime, or during its death in a supernova. We really are cosmic dust, or as Carl Segan called it, “Star Stuff”.

I live in rural Ohio and everything is far away, I’m about 2hrs from Cleveland, 2hrs from Columbus, and 2hrs from Pittsburgh, so about 2hrs drive is my limit because that’s about as far as I’d have to go in any case.

Yep

2, but make him look more indifferent and less angry I think.

YouTube didn’t exist until after I graduated high school

If it were supposed to be pronounced “jif” it would have been spelled that way, I don’t give two fucks what Stephen Wilhite said about it either.
