My Nextdoor app is full of local events. Maybe yours is too?

I’ve seen Nextdoor for parts of Los Angeles and it’s full of garbage, making it less useful. It really depends on how your neighbors are using it.

The dude is weird and out of touch. I believe everything he does and says is performed without any forethought.

All snoring is bad at any age.

How dare her.

Kids of today certainly lack a lot of “background” tech troubleshooting skills, but understand some of the more nuanced details of modern systems. It’s both interesting and frustrating to watch.

Web “1” and web2.0 was awful. Kids of that time had to troubleshoot it on their own.

“Xennials” probably have the most critical problem solving skills applicable to tech. But 80’s/90’s kids were dealing with really new or bad tech while 60’s/70’s kids were dealing with VCRs and ATMs.

That’s simply selection bias.

Some of the genx built it, but the rest of them were too old (too busy) to learn it. The kids learned it.

X86 was not built by genx if you want to get pedantic.

No. It’s bad for the economy.

Yes, “xennials” probably have their own generation because of this, but I have met a lot more millennials that can manage UI changes over genx.

Switch a genx from windows to Mac and they are lost. Switch a millennial and they seem to be fine. I’ve seen this with phones, TVs, websites, etc.

Genx were young during “dumb” tech. VCR, digital phones, etc. millennials were learning the internet as it was moving from a hobby to its own platform, cellphones as they were first widely available then as they went “smart”, and a lot of other examples.

Don’t get me wrong, a lot of knowledge was lost along the way like manual categorical systems including tabulation machines, phone books, Thomas Guides, even cabinet filing systems/card catslogs. Genx handles these things a lot better than the more recent generations.

A lot of gen x got theirs. College was paid for and was cheap, lots of opportunities while they were young, got a house, a family and are just living. They will get a fair inheritance if their parents die on time, but they are also the first to see that huge nest egg disappear to the current healthcare system.

Their vote never counted. Too many boomers.

They were the first to figure out their parents had it incredibly easy, although it took them a long time. Sometimes they didn’t see it until their own kids struggled with costs and employment.

A lot are conservative but probably because they have assets and don’t like social welfare taking from them, even though their parents set it up for them to lose.

They aren’t as tech savvy as millennials.

There are other cloud storage providers. Dropbox is probably the bigger ones offering personal cloud storage only, behind google and onedrive.

Or you can get a Synology. A 2-drive unit with a pair of drives. Their “Drive” app functions well, but depends on your home internet and power.

Why not buy more google drive? $100/yr gives you 2tb. This might be the easiest for you to adapt too.

I see you have some sort of legacy account but I’m sure you can convert it.

Smaller communities generally have trouble growing. If you were around while Reddit was taking off, they had only a few subreddits to start, and they only created other subreddits when there was a large enough community to support it.

I’d add content to existing community instead of starting a new one.

Your opinion seems valid. I’d be fine with leaving a flat earth post up, locked, with a comment that OP has turd brains.

The “different sides” argument is a fallacy. If 100 geologists say the planet is round, and one geologist says it’s flat, both sides don’t deserve equal amounts of space to discuss it.

Does it exhaust through the wall or just back into the room? Is is set up right?

Every microwave hood that’s come with the apt or home I’ve had has always been installed wrong and has been blocking airflow.

I just saw a post on LinkedIn from a low-rent c-suite that lost their cars and home. Other c-suites were reaching out to help them like I’ve never seen.

Billionaires won’t ever be poor because their peers will help them.

Robocop sort of addresses this.
