Grew up around central Illinois, the whole area blames Chicago for their problems while the true issue is all the auto manufacturing left in the 70-80s. If they formed their own state they'd be worse off than Mississippi. But hey, they'd get to keep Danville and East St. Louis, two of the worst cities in America.

If you were in a red state during the Obama campaign/presidency you wouldn't be surprised.

Probably doesn't help that Teslas guess which direction you want to go in and you have to change it if it's wrong. https://www.autoblog.com/2021/01/28/tesla-new-gear-shifter-guesses-direction-you-want/

I would eat fried chicken every day if it wouldn't kill me.

I can't order Jimmy John's on my work computer anymore. Why? Because tiktok is blocked on our work network. What does tiktok have to do with Jimmy John's? Well I would have thought nothing expect it won't let you set your delivery option unless it's allowed to send data to analytics.tiktok.com.

Why is a God damn sandwich shop sending my location to tiktok? No idea, but it's definitely not just the video app that's the problem.

100% agree, my favorite phone I've had was the BlackBerry Priv, the form factor was perfect for me. I had a KeyOne but a lot of apps didn't play well with the weird resolution screen.

I couldn't find another phone with a physical keyboard and a full sized screen so I'm now on a OnePlus 10 Pro but if there was another phone released with a physical sliding keyboard I'd be on top it immediately.

That's not true, there were several free antiviruses that were considered good back then. I'd say quality free antivirus were more popular in the mid-00s to late 00s than they are now after Windows defender got usable.

Well and the attachments we did send were rarely anywhere close to 2MB. Uploading 2MBs on dial-up was TORTURE, especially my shitty rural dial-up.

I stream because i enjoy playing single player games and it's nice having people to hang out with and share the experiences. I know I will never "hit it big", I don't have enough time to put in since I work full time. But I enjoy playing video games and it's cool to make a little side cash on your hobby.

The biggest toxicity in streaming is typically from yourself. Always watching your followers numbers and viewership, wondering what you did because one stream did worse than another. I find myself falling into that trap as well sometimes and it definitely makes wanting to stream again hard.

I'm my experience it's mostly 60+ yo adults that type in all caps.
