    I’m guessing people are sharing this intending it to generate a laugh or a scoff and not… you know, an incontrollable welling up of nostalgia and longing where you can smell every part of the picture and you know in your soul you’re never going home again?

    Or maybe a light chuckle or something.

    • Saudade - A word in Portuguese and Galician denoting an emotional state of melancholic or profoundly nostalgic longing for a beloved yet absent someone or something. It derives from the Latin word for solitude. It is often associated with a repressed understanding that one might never encounter the object of longing ever again. It is a recollection of feelings, experiences, places, or events, often elusive, that cause a sense of separation from the exciting, pleasant, or joyous sensations they once caused. Duarte Nunes Leão defines saudade as, “Memory of something with a desire for it”.

      wouldn’t it be great if when we think of something in the past, we could also smell what it smelt like

    Honestly you could tell me this photo was taken in 2023 in a hipster neighborhood in Seattle and I would believe you.

      This is still a struggle today.

      Want to put a file on your iPhone or iPad from a non-mac? Good luck without some 3rd party app.

        Good luck doing any file management on an iPhone or iPad tbh. Tech companies nowadays seem desperate to make people forget how computers work.

        On my Linux installation, I just plug it in, “trust” the PC, and I can open it in my file explorer as I would any other USB storage device. Do you need a 3rd party app to do that on Windows?
