- Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions. 2 weeks ago:
Unions are for states which are run for pure profit growth governments that focus on corporate health over humans.
Countries which have this baked in at the Government level typically don’t need them because the government is the union.
That is not, and never has been the case in the US.

Um, NTA?
Not bad at all. I’m in my 50s and constantly disappointed there are none. The more I learned about actual reality as I grew up the more disappointed I became.
That’s why books, comics, movies, games, even cartoons/anime are so popular.
Don’t feel bad, keep looking for the magic.

What’s a mysterious atmosphere?

Not weird, information dense.
To think the average American who can barely explain the politics they support without having the talking points repeated to them night after night could pay attention to something that makes them think is a bold take.
- Comment on Enthusiasts bond twelve 56K modems together to set dial-up broadband records — a dozen screeching boxes achieve record 668 kbps download speeds 4 months ago:
My first modem was an AT&T 300 baud acoustic coupler. My last was a USRobotics 56k for the BBS I ran till the early 2000s.
I later switched to DSL for my Internet, but the reason we never did this sort of thing was the ISDN was just easier to get bandwidth and the tech existed to do what you needed with a few of them.
12x POTS lines, or 6 full duplex ISDNs.
My 56k never actually achieved that, most of the time it was 33.6 or 28.8.
This is neat, and fun to see them still being tinkered with.
