Did the voice on the payphone say: You must please deposit 25 cents to place your call LOL I think that's engrained in my memory
Fun fact:
Once touch tone phones became the norm there were actually games you could play by just calling a number. There was also a number you could call and get the local time and temperature. Oh, and lets not forget Mr. MoviePhone!

Rotary phones weren't even that long ago?!??! I still remember the swooop, click-click-click-click sound, oh, and the ear shattering ringing bells. I am happy that in our lifetime we've come so far that kids don't understand tools from just a couple decades ago. I remember my father showing me a stack of punch cards he used at work and warning me not to touch them - but what I also know is, that those kids better get the hell off my damn lawn!

Mid 40s, and I too feel old now - at first I thought OP was setting us up for a joke. The local phone company still delivered phone books to everyone in my city until a few years ago.
I think it was an old legal requirement for any phone company providing landline services to also provide phonebooks. Unfortunately most weren't even recycled, they were either burned in backyard firepits, or just thrown out

Thanks for the suggestion! I think that's how I'd describe A man called Otto, and I love that movie

I've forgotten about that movie! It's as if every fear, and suspicion, I had about the people working in restaurants came true 😂. It's been a while since I've seen it's memes...going to have to dig into the old meme folder and get posting

How did you like The Holdovers? I've been wanting to add that to my streaming queue
These are older stories, but I just found out about this place. Here is a 2nd article: https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/experience/theme-parks/2024/05/12/morgans-wonderland-theme-park-accessibility/73660563007/ I also just [read ](https://sanantonioreport.org/morgans-wonderland-to-open-ultra-accessible-hotel-in-2026/) that they're planning a hotel geared towards families with disabilities A one-of-a-kind theme park that’s fully accessible to people with disabilities is back to life complete with new rides and attractions after undergoing a multi-million dollar expansion. Morgan’s Wonderland, an inclusive theme park in San Antonio, recently reopened after four months of improvements and upgrades. Following the $6.5 million overhaul, the park now offers a first-of-its-kind 4-seat zip line that can accommodate riders in wheelchairs as well as those who need extra restraints, respiratory equipment or other special gear. Another new offering is the wheelchair-accessible Jette’s Wonder Bikes which features glider-style cars that riders can make go up and down using pedals or hand cranks. There is also a lake cruise and a 4D cinema that offers riders in wheelchairs a roller-coaster experience using a video screen with motion effects.

Baby beavers have been born in urban London for the first time in more than 400 years, a conservation project said. The family of Eurasian beavers were introduced to a nature reserve in Ealing, west London, in October as part of a project that aims to get the public to engage with nature, to study biodiversity improvements and to monitor flood mitigation effects. Project leaders said the fact that at least two babies, or kits as they are called, had been born on the Paradise Fields site in Greenford showed the beavers were "happy" with the habitat. Dr Sean McCormack, one of the volunteers behind the project, said he and the other volunteers were "totally over the moon, thrilled, excited".
The largest solar grazing project in the U.S. will reduce mowing costs and emissions — and make for some happy sheep.

I used to watch this on PBS in the 90s, it stars Lenny Henry. If you liked 'The Bear' I think you may also like this. Someone has posted clips from various episodes (just so you can get a taste): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB32A14286F5B026F
In an effort to redeem myself I was going to post Island City (1994), but [Dr Wesker](https://lemmy.world/u/wesker@lemmy.sdf.org) beat me to it by about 2 months. So I give you [Bablyon 5 (1993-1997)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtrUhIuEqdY) , S01 intro. I remember seeing the pilots for both B5 and Island City on UPN(?) on the same day

I have an old Synology 1819 NAS that was the unfortunate victim of the Intel Atom/Clock bug. I would like to repurpose the case as I like the compact form factor. Has anyone tried replacing a synology mobo with something else (ex: an ITX board or a Raspberry Pi), and using an alternative operating system?
