Gen X is 1965 to 1980. I suppose 43/44 could just about be considered "early forties".Down with racism. Long live miscegenation! -

I still use it, it's great for getting info from & interacting with people/subjects I'm interested in, e.g. my local community, hobbies etc., and also keeping in touch with friends & family I rarely see. I'm not aware of any other widely used tool or app which offers the same.Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostFacebook is still a thing? Weird.Comment

I’m getting friend notices swamped by ads these days so it’s getting less and less useful for me.
I don’t mind some ads but when there’s more than anything of interest I tune out."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."

And my last contact with the Sun newspaper was sitting on on one while on a rainy train station while waiting for a train. When the irritated owner came back to retrieve it he was less than happy when I pointed out that it was mostly dry.

Oh try reading it online, the story is about a quarter of the page covered by ads and it takes too long to load, crashes Chrome as well.Originally posted by cojak View Post

Some people don't appreciate the finer things in life like a dry newspaper!Comment
