1·1 year ago10/10 my dog would love to eat these snacks XD
3·1 year agoI will always remember that dial-up sound, how long it took to connect (if it did at all), and waiting for like 5 minutes watching a picture loading inch by inch on the screen. I was like 7-8 around that time I think? So my sister and I just loved searching for unicorn pictures lol
Ahhh yes, I remember the transition from the discman to the mp3 players - it was amazing! No more disc skipping when listening in the car! You suddenly had winamp in your pocket, it was so great. I had one of the cheaper ones, couldn’t afford the ipod but it was still so great.
I remember storage sizes getting bigger and bigger, and how 100s of songs on one mp3 player was mindblowing.
I also remember cameras going digital - those blew my mind. You could take as many pictures as you wanted?? And it did take up a valuable spot in your limited roll of film? And you could see it??? Holy shit, man. Then also watching the megapixels start getting better and better.
I’m not sure seven is enough, honestly.
Not only this, but women have been suppressed for most of history and not allowed to participate or taken seriously. This means even in those societies where we were paying attention, we were listening to at best only the 50% of (generally white) men in that fraction of the world.
Different field than the post, but Mozart’s sister comes to mind. She was also a prodigy, was toured around with Wolfgang and got top billings as a kid. But as soon as she was “marriagable age” she was not permitted anymore to pursue any career in music. She had to marry, have kids, and was a piano teacher the rest of her life. What incredible musical compositions could we have had from her, if the patriarchy had allowed?
