    Full circle back to the first days of the internet that only universities and the rich could use. Also high storage prices again when we’ve had it dirt cheap for decades.

    Nothing new.

      the majority of people access the internet on their phones or smart devices. almost exclusively.

      desktop computer internet is going the way of the doh doh in terms of traffic. it’s for nerds.

        Crazy isn’t it!

        I stand by, phones are for consuming, computers are for creation. Of course humans thirst for consuming is unending, like an insatiable Godzilla.

          Yeah well i’m a social pariah for not being a phone person. I’m over here like it’s 2002 consuming most of my internet on a desktop, not even a laptop! I spend maybe 15m a day on my phone.

            Awesome. I do much as I can to live in 2003 (mostly using CRTs, watching my vhs tapes, playing dreamcast, ha!)

            I do like my phone for on the go, but I’ve done all I can do de crapify it. Excited to get a pixel and graphene next year.
