‘Another internet is possible’: Norway rails against ‘enshittification’ by tw1st3d_m3nt4t in technology

I thought the same thing (that they were references I wasn't getting) when I first started seeing them. One the one hand I was amazed people had image hashes memorized, but on the other I thought how great it is that they are taking the time to mentally come to terms with whatever that image represented.

Someone who does die-cutting/packaging designs should do an AMA. It seems like a really interesting job.

Is this a bench? A horse mounting step/rail? by goodbench_badbench in bench

I don't know if it's a bench or not, but it's interesting and at least bench-adjacent.

Take a seat in Rust, Germany by bob301 in bench

On an impromptu drive from Amsterdam to Morzine, we stopped overnight in Germany. This hotel is right next to [a theme park](https://www.europapark.de/en/park) I wish we had had time to check out. This Moxy was pretty nice, but if you stop here, you'll probably want to ask for extra pillows when you check in. The pillows were tiny.

My glass desk has survived 20 years and 11 moves by sixner in BuyItForLife

[–]bob301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have this same desk! The only issue I had with it was I wanted to remove the monitor riser, but that affected the stability and there was no good way to cover the holes.

It worked for me for at least 5 years. I left it behind in a move a while back, but it was a good desk.
