Had to have the "Porn Discussion" with my 14 year old. Bloody hilarious really, he was mortified. Poor little bugger... Totally unrelated note: did you know that Kindles have a basic web browser that can display grainy, grayscale images?!? 😂

Back in my day we used to print out jpegs 😁

Yep, that took like 25 minutes to download...

And like 10 minutes to print out. Felt like mission impossible trying not to get caught.

You should try browsing the web using a terminal-based browser sometime, it's quite fun. :)

Lol, that's great

Which one are you using, I haven't found one that clicked for me yet. I've started using Toot TUI for mastodon and its great. Extra steps if you want to open photos etc, but given its just a text medium it just works better for reading. A TUI for RSS feeds is probably the next thing to grab for me.

This is elinks, I alternate between this and w3m. It's nice for browsing text-heavy sites like Wikipedia, or if I want to quickly look at a search result without needing to deep dive into the links.

Haha oh boy, there are always new challenges when you have kids.

Oh yes. And just when you think you've got your head around things, it all goes changing again
