I’m in my 40s. I’ve had phones since the 90s. Only sideways by default ones I recall are some Moto and Sidekick or similar. And they weren’t really close to today’s video capability.
What phone are you referring to that is sideways by default??

Holding the phone sideways by default? I’ve never seen anyone do that. My phone doesn’t even work like that.
When the video requires a wide view, yeah that makes sense. But only when required. Shouldn’t be the default since holding the phone that way isn’t the default. Simply makes sense.
When everyone watches your content on a vertical screen, it simply makes sense.
There was a time period before the modernization of video sharing apps when vertical video was annoying because it was primarily consumed on a PC. But that changed years ago.
The only people still making the vertical video arguments haven’t reevaluated their stance in a decade, or don’t get out of the house much.
^ yes, this exactly. It was the equivalent of living on the dark net in the eves. Total Wild West.
Not all > 45 tho. I’d say 40-55 or so who were also “nerds” or “geeks” as kids.
I have a girls name and my last name is a very popular Asian female name too.
My entire life I get misgendered on phone, email, chat. It’s not a big deal. Hell, it can be an advantage - I’ve gotten more than one job interview because they expect a woman.
No damage on friendly fire
Be careful with this dangerous logic. You’ll get pitchforked.
All this sensitivity being mainstream is new to me. It came from all angles in all aspects of life very suddenly.
Yes you can find some things happening in the past, but sweeping changes were made in the 2020-2022 timeframe.
That fact doesn’t minimize anyone’s prior efforts, thoughts, feelings, actions, movements, or otherwise. The attempts to fix the English collective masculine date back to 1795.
As early as 1795, dissatisfaction with the convention of the collective masculine led to calls for gender-neutral pronouns, and attempts to invent pronouns for this purpose date back to at least 1850, although the use of singular they as a natural gender-neutral pronoun in English has persisted since the 14th century.
Yeah, 2020 is the time period I’m referring to. I had never heard of it being a thing until George Floyd and BLM movement in 2020, then GitHub changed in response to that.
I’ve been in IT for 35 years. And I never heard a single negative thing about branch names and master/slave terminology until 2020.
Perhaps you think that was set aside because IDE hard drives are dead.
Sensitivities during Covid ran high. A lot of things changed then. For instance in the software world removing the name “master” from git usage, and on the TV Show Survivor, the host not saying his famous line “come on in guys”. At the same time pronouns became a huge thing, and these seemingly gender specific or sensitive word terms were targeted.
You are correct, there was a round of this in the 90s or so, where job titles like “waitress”, “stewardess”, “policeman” were all adjusted. I see that as a very different round of language change.
3 years ago, “man” in that context was considered gender neutral. More recently tho a lot of stink is being made about little language things like this. Theres no replacement word to use.
Me too. But due to the non linear storyline I typically jump around a lot
Tell you what, though-- feel free to have the last reply.

I certainly didn’t write “if you are tolerant then you have to tolerate me”. However what I wrote I can’t recall. Something about not being so nasty to dumb people. I stand by that statement. I don’t speak ill of dumb people or Trump supporters as a whole. The only reason to do such a thing is to incite anger from a group.

I’ll have a window seat at 30k feet and the person seated to my left will be free fallin’ for a while.
Those addons are fun for about 12 years, but then they become really expensive with micro transactions like crazy, and later ending needing an entire college DLC. Start saving.
FTX was not on a censorship resistant, trustless, globally synchronized ledger. They were a company that promised you they had your stuff on that ledger, but didn’t.
No one should hold funds on an exchange, that’s akin to a bank. These trustless ledger were built to provide a place to store assets WITHOUT trusting a bank.
No one can freeze my native assets held on one of these “blockchains”.
If you don’t understand the difference, I can get more technical.
RUSH’N ATTACK for NES. I remember buying it as a child and being devastated that it sucked so bad.
