Smartphones weren’t really all that popular until 2007, and none of the ones before the iPhone 3G or like the Blackberry’s could really run Facebook all that well. The iPhone never really blew up to the level it’s at now until the 4 arguably, which didn’t come out until 2010 or 2011 (think it was 2010). Facebook had already been pretty infected before then.

Kings Quest 4 on like 8 disks I think?
It’s been corporate the entire time. The rise of the www literally fueled a global economic bubble.
I had a geocities page all about skateboarding. I’d give you the url, but I neither remember it, nor doubt your phone is wide enough for a url that long
Nope. You got the time period right, but I would like to posit it’s when they started letting our Parents, drunk uncles and dumb ass aunties on Facebook.
The problem always has, and always will be, Facebook.
The only thing I wish I could deny is the 40+ part
Why, are your feelings so hurt that you can’t create and form logical thoughts for yourself, but instead need to be guided by internet rage?
Do I like or agree with JK Rowling and her views? No. Do I think her work on Harry Potter had an absolutely large positive contribution to literacy? Undoubtably so.
Sometimes the people who create and leave the largest legacies and contributions to society, are also people with unpopular opinions and viewpoints. Again I’m not defending or trying to justify this woman’s viewpoints, but I also can understand the fine nuance that learning from and reading Mein Kampf doesn’t automatically make someone a Nazi.
If you get enjoyment out of Harry Potter, knock yourself out. It makes you no less of a person, and OP so much less of a person for trying to make you feel that way.
Sorry you can’t offer a contribution, and instead feel the need to act like an absolute child.

I’m sorry for completely trashing the next month of your life, but I’m not sorry because it’s really fucking good. It has a bit of a slow start but just gets better and better and better.
Halt and Catch Fire is so slept on, it’s not funny. It’s in my personal top 10.
The bigger thing is just the whole virtue signaling of everything and anything. I try to do my best about all of this too, but I don’t protest, I don’t brag to my friends. I just kind of try to do good things (to the best of my abilities), and otherwise just shut the fuck up about it.
