Although I don't use them day-to-day any more, cassette tapes are what I have the most warmth and nostalgia for because they're what I grew up with. Messing around with tapes and making mix-tapes were a big part of my childhood and teenage years, difficult to sell to those who never experienced it but I can't think of any other format that allowed that same level of playfulness and creativity.

"Square one" sounds good to me!

4.20 still feels like yesterday

I'm surprised at that, from my experience I think it's still more normal than not to have analogue clocks at home, and I would always prefer an analogue watch.

It just adds another layer of abstraction when my file manager works just fine. I think it started back in the iPod days, and now you have a generation of people who don't know how to manage files.

I think you're right then, and honestly I can't say I've noticed.

VLC because it works with everything and it doesn't try to organise my music collection for me.

I've never heard of sugarcoating pills, is it a US thing maybe?

I was mildly interested until I saw "designed for creators". Seems like a meaningless marketing term that gets added to everything these days.

Beehaw is my favourite instance, if it left I would stay with it but and also use a different instance to use Lemmy.

I would worry that Beehaw couldn't sustain itself outside of federation though, it needs to be either bigger or fill more of a niche and it doesn't do either. I would give it some time to grow more first if it were up to me.

Because anything truly outside of our senses (or ability to measure) is non-falsifiable, so if it can't impact us it's essentially meaningless. If it can impact us then it can be measured and become science.

That didn't exist when I tried TW, but that's something I'll at least try out on a second machine at some point.
