Your article about nostalgia in issue 2 of Ear Rat Magazine was awesome man! It really resonated with us. You were able to articulate what it is about nostalgia that is special and yet also something in need of balance.

Oh, did that come out. I wrote it a while back, but earrat disappeared until I happened to check recently. I'll have to check out the others

Waking up feeling tired is how I felt for over a decade now, are you under a lot of stress? You sound possibly depressed... all of those things can cause that. I find lying very flat (no pillows either) after waking up and focusing on breathing snd gentle stretches can help ease any aches and make you feel a bit lighter and more ready for the day. Are you getting enough sleep? Do you possibly have S.A.D.? Take care!

If you’re still under lockdown, can you open your windows every morning? That bit of natural light helps! If mot under lockdown, a little walk when the weather’s best for you helps!

Hey, thanks for the add! I know it's no secret that I am also the webmaster of that other listing site, but I am hesitant to have it broadcasted like that in the description of the the Boutique on Pergatory. I kind of like to keep my activities on that other listing site separated from here. Also the Boutique does have a 88x31 button https://billsworld.neocities.org/images/billsworld.gif Cheers!

I never saw this video, but your account reminds me of those bundled with Windows 95 and 98, such as the tiny trailer for Caton-Jones' middling filmic adaptation of "Rob Roy." Dell's support for their older models is unparalleled, esp. compared to that of derelict manufacturers like HP.

I'm almost as partial to Dells as to Lenovos. For XMas, Annusya bought me a refurbished Optiplex 7010 that runs beautifully (now that FreBSD is installed thereto), and after 18 years, I still use a Dimension 4500S on which OpenBSD is installed for storage, and as an occasional server.

Incidentally, the Internet would be a better place if smartphones primarily accessed services via a protocol designed and optimized solely for mobile devices.

Lenovo and HP, I would say, are also very fine PC vendors, though I especially like Dell simply because it happened that I ended up using one of their PCs (the Dimension 8400) for most of the 2000s. (And running some non-Windows OS on those old Dell models, when Windows is what they originally shipped with? How could you, Robert...)

Very late in commenting on this, but I just wanted to say that I loved this article. I too still reject the idea of smartphones being the future, since they are inherently inferior and restrictive devices compared to PCs. Ever since smartphones became dominant, it feels as if we are no longer moving forth into a bold future, but instead regressing.

koshka, I don't know if you'll see this, but I agree entirely with that sentiment; smartphones are what you use as a temporary computing substitute, for those unfortunate times when you are unable to use a PC. I am also reminded of this image: https://i.imgur.com/IcWEpu2.jpg

I love your site, it genuinely feels like the 90's sites I wandered as a kid! Also, those snowglobe/magic orb gifs brought back sooooo many memories!!!
