I once said that children who steal can be rehabilitated or taught to be productive members of society.

Downvoted to oblivion while everyone else celebrated the death of 3 kids because "all thieves deserve to die".

This was my computer lab at school. Vividly remember the double stacked apple floppy drives and the wood box of floppy discs that you could check out at the school library to use the on the computers.

Didn't have a home PC until the Commodore 64. Still have that one in a box somewhere with way too many accessories.

Also no mention of Spider drive that everyone insists is a torx

In my experience, people tend to not want things that don't benefit them directly.

If they don't use the bike lanes they don't want them to take up what could be a car lane they would use.

Your "surely have some peer-approved scientific sources" automatically makes me think of you as some brain dead meme kid with no identity other than being "good at" social media.

I subscribed to all sorts of newsletters, and at least one was dinosaur specific. I would also write professors at local colleges with questions and usually get a response.

Also worked at the library and could order just about any book available. At that point most libraries would order books if they didn't have them already.

But mostly newsletters and science journals until BBS became more common and user friendly when we first started having available computers.

I worked for a low income apartment complex that started doing AirBnB. It's already a 2-3 year waiting list to get a rent controlled low income apartment but they were taking units off the market because they could make more money renting them by the night.
