I have a physical copy of this book. I don’t recommend it.

Next time someone asks about activitypub and fediverse
We all had to learn somehow. Some of the Dummies books were pretty good.
I still remember the first time I heard the word “email.” Two friends that worked for the city government were discussing an email they recieved from a supervisor. I remember asking, “what the hell is, what do you call it, E-M-A-I-L?”
I remember the comedy in class when Hotmail came out and nobody heard about it yet in school. The uncontrollable hilarity when the teacher announced he had a hot male on the Internet.
As opposed offline electronic mail.
Look, don’t shame me for mailing my pen pal a kobo with the letter on it
I have a copy of the first edition of “The Internet for Dummies.” It’s worthless, just like the Internet.
It’s just 400 pages and they all have one word: don’t
How old is it?
The internet is over 20 years old and electronic mail is still in use today!
I am not sure if you are joking but the Internet is significantly older than “over 20 years”.
Yeah more like 50+.
The web, almost 40?
I no longer have email I just use my twitter dot com DMs like a cool guy 😤😤😤 (the IRS is still hunting me for sport)
Nirvana, Alanis, new oasis album, biggie and Tupac got shot, kinda in there
Sorry. Need to check my handy style book, but E-Mail is probably most correct usage
Not anymore
What about that file transfer and encryption?
WinRAR’s password and archive-splitting feature, I assume. 7-Zip was around since 1999 but not as popular.
We had pgp and ftp in the 90s
I mean from the books cover :-)
