OT: Sens Lounge -The four seasons edition

[Micklebot]

What is actually very good is Perth Brewery's "Play" non-alcoholic beer. I think for me it is a bit of a game changer. I am starting to feel more effects of alcohol and they reaffirm that this stuff while delicious, isn't really good for you at all. I think moderation is fine but in general I think I am starting to get the message

I'll have to try it,

In all honesty, I more often than not only have a single beer, so not enough to really get much if any impact from an intoxication aspect, but I'm still paying all that sin tax. I've never been big on non-alcoholic beer because i've never had one that is as delicious as the real deal.

The Guinness 0.0 is a super solid option too. Tastes basically the same as the original

How many people in here are still using Netscape Navigator as their web browser?

Just wondering

Netscape Navigator? I'm still using Mosaic, and get off my lawn!

From people who know more about me about non-alcoholic beer, I am told the secret is leaving at least .1% or .5%, as it changes the flavour and the realness of the beer...just passing that along! I had a couple 0.0% and they were shit. This Perth one at 0.1% tastes like beer

My sundial tells me it's time for my afternoon nap, but once I wake up I'll make sure to get off your lawn.

The only one I've had that wasn't complete ass was Farm Boy's NA Pale Ale.

I've heard the same, which is why I was surprised about the Guinness 0%. I'm a big Guinness guy myself and could barely tell the difference.

I'll have to check out the Perth one though. I've had a few from that brewery that were very solid, Last Duel being my favourite.

I'll have to check that out as I do really enjoy Guinness.

Errrr, didn’t summer begin Thursday, June 20, 2024, at 4:51 P.M. EDT.?

Errrr, the thread wasn’t created yesterday.

That’s my point… a new “Summer” thread should have been created…. It’s no longer spring.

Well create it, if you want then.

Is that better for you?

Not a Guinness guy but I liked the blond one ok. I just can't get past the texture and I can't seem to get it cold enough for me to get refreshed by it. Flavour is ok, but the stouts has that caramelly, foamy feel to them. If stuck will drink it! Also feels like it may have 500 calories

Ottawa was once cutting edge when it came to the internet.

That was my moms era. The only stoners I know now are all professionals. Lawyers, accountants, doctors, etc.

I only work with one of those groups of ppl. But most don't smoke a lot of weed. Maybe a few times a year. They do drink though.

The Grolsch (? Sp) non alcoholic version is pretty similar to it's alcoholic version. I've had a few good ones when I was pregnant, but honestly I can't remember what they were

Have used Firefox for decades, on all PCs and now even on my Chromebook (using Linux Development Environment)

I think you'd get a more accurate gauge if you asked something like:

Have you used a typewritter?
Have you used a rotary phone?
Have you used a standalone fax machine? (probably some lawyers and doctors would answer yes to this one at a higher than expected rate)
Have you used a pager?
Have you used a non smart cell phone?
Did you ever own a CRT tv? Was it black and white?
Name the slowest baud modem you've ever used? 110, 300,1200, 2400, 5600 14.4, 28.8 ect,

Yes to all of the above….. except any type of mobile phone… never owned one, no plans to anytime soon

Typing class, in high school, was where all the girls were….

So Long as You Carry a Cellphone, the Government Can Track You

A phone in your pocket may as well be a GPS beacon strapped to your ankle.

Yes to all!

Not sure of modem specifically, but I remember the early days of dial up.

We had it for 6 months and it cost $40 because my uncle signed up for a year.
