20·8 days agoconversely, it’s a bad idea to not keep emergency preparedness supplies like ≥3 L water per household occupant, dried food (beans etc., rotated regularly), a first aid kit, etc.

Even I didn’t know about that! That’s really cool ty for sharing
anything that implies they’ve only learned European and US history (e.g. discounting the global technological contributions of Asia and Africa)
yes
I’m a lesbian, but y’all femboys look fine as hell just sayin

one time in high school my buddy said something outrageous so i tried to respond (jokingly) with “I’m going to slap your face!” and also “I’m going to kick your ass!” but the two options both got shoved into my verbal buffer and that’s how I nearly mass murdered my entire friend group with laughter by accidentally threatening to slap his ass
I had the perfect phone. Sony XZ2 Compact. released in 2018 so not even that old
5" screen. No headphone jack, but I was honestly just glad to have a screen that small. Ran LineageOS like a dream.
Then came the 3G tower shutdown. Now, the XZ2c is capable of 4G LTE calling. Lineage even had the settings option for it unlocked (as opposed to stock). So I call up my carrier and ask them to please enable 4G LTE calling for my phone so that it’ll receive calls again.
Turns out, the major carriers in the US decided not to support 4G LTE calling for the XZ2c. There’s a line of code sitting somewhere that could be flipped to “true” and my perfect phone would work again. But no, fuck me for wanting to resist CONSOOM NOO FONE EVERY SIX MONTH.
Fuck capitalism I’ll never forget what they took from me

In the U.S., according to Census Bureau data, an estimated 163,401 households were using dial-up alone to get online in 2023, representing just over 0.13% of all homes with internet subscriptions nationwide.
(AP News)As far as US households, looks like not many. Most likely very remote locations. I had also read that some businesses maintain a dial up connection as a backup for broadband outages
that is indeed very Jason Steele esque humor, complete with copious horses
