    Before the days of the Internet, a “'magazine” was a big bundle of paper full of articles you could get shipped to your door, sort of like if you printed out a website.

    Wow.

      Ok but who actually doesn’t know what a magazine is. They’re very much around, you walk by them at most grocery stores.

      Not knowing a home phone or cassette I might understand

        I’m pretty sure Ars has a minimum acceptable level of snark and sarcasm that needs to be met for publication, particularly with things like Google shutting down some service they’re bored with.
