A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.
- Wait at least 2 months before reposting
- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca
- Merkitse K18-sisältö tarpeen mukaan

Internet used to be so slow that you had a tv next to the computer so you could keep yourself entertained until the funny picture loaded.
I remember downloading an mp3 took about as much time as listening to it.

Youngin. I remember downloading a song took an hour. Want to download an album? Better clear out your weekend and hope no one else needed the phone
I think my first modem was a 14400. It was so slow, but somehow I was so patient. If I was getting 3KB a second, I was happy.
Downloadlng kinky pictures, you'd better have a kink for hairstyles or eyebrows, because it'll be a while before anything else displays.
Bitmaps loaded from the bottom up! Tomorrow.
You could literally hear the bytes passing through your modem if you wanted.
