You heard it that way because that's because that's the end of 1 Corinthians 13:11:

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

C.S. Lewis is playing off of a Bible quote and that became its own thing.

I've had an impressively easy time finding particular messages as long as I had a decent idea of what servers it might have been in and at least one of the following:

  • Who said it
  • To whom it was said
  • At least a word that was likely said

Which has been way better than most other things I've bothered to search through like Reddit, Beehaw, or Mastodon (especially when it was limited entirely to hashtags). Lord help me if I want to find a particular post or comment on TikTok or Youtube.

Both Gmail and Outlook have dipped into having 2+ sidebar menus, with one of them permanent. And for both, it's to shoehorn in features/flows that aren't the thing I'm there for (e-mail).

First time encountering one! I'm almost impressed how you can write about something as technical as Linux in the writing style and cadence of shady medical supplement ads for the elderly, including bolded accusatory questions and poorly-supported italic statements placed mid-sentence.

Content rate needs to go up, I agree, but the biggest source of content in comparable social media came from something I'd like to avoid: power users.

Well, I guess it's better than trying to paywall stuff that was previously available.

Also don't think X calls would be worth using free, let alone for a fee, so we'll see how that goes.

Yeah no shit those metrics will skew towards Gen Z being more victimized if you’re lumping cyberbullying into the mix!

They're high in each of those categories individually, not (just) if you add the categories together and compare the totals. Millennials are slightly higher in Romance scams and identify theft though.

BUT these numbers are also self-disclosed. I'm not sure how you'd correct for this in a survey, but I could easily believe that these two generations are simply more likely to realize they've been victimized, and have a higher exposure to the internet (and thus to scams).

I'd be more interested in something like a sit-down test, to be honest. It'd be easier to account for time spent online and self-awareness of victimization, and more likely to isolate "internet street smarts", as far as I can tell.

Kailh box royals baby! Get the beefiest tactile feedback and avoid the high pitched noise.

I always sort of read those jokes as illustrative as GLaDOS being a bad person fielding weak material more than like, an earnest expression of the game writer's values. Like, the game itself doesn't present the remarks themselves as funny so much as GLaDOS being rude, snippy, and actively incorrect given that Chell is mega-fit.

The one bottle I bought, I've had since 2010, I think. I have a few other bottles that I've picked up for free (conferences, college housing promo) from ~2012, ~2015, ~2019?

Thanks! Yeah, it looks like it covers T-mobile minus the GHZ/ mmWave bands, which is good for me. A solid consider, especially if they (eventually) drag it over to the states like the Fairphone 5.

Their website doesn't seem to specify which GSM bands it has (simply "More Bands and Band-Combinations for better reception"). I want to know how much of a given provider's spectrum I'd be missing out on trying to sneak one of these to the states.
