CBS Sunday Morning writes: The internet is ephemeral, with the average life of a web page -- before it's changed or deleted -- about 100 days. And so, the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine has been making backups of websites every day since 1996, with nearly 900 billion pages preserved, available to all. But making books and music freely available has led to several lawsuits brought by record labels and the book publishing industry. Correspondent David Pogue reports.

Aging is a funny thing. You start off young and excited and eager to get older, and then at some point you reach a point where getting older becomes less fun and more…achy. Your 40s is generally when you start to feel aging hit in random ways. Healthy living can help fend off a lot of aging woes, but not everything. And it's not even just bodily aging that manifests in your 40s. It's things like needing to sleeping less, realizing exactly how dumb you were in your 20s and developing a sudden, inexplicable fascination with birdwatching. Or bird arguing, as the case may be. Someone who identifies as Xennial (on the cusp of Gen X and millennial) shared a "Life in your 40s" confessional about an argument they got into with the birds in their yard, which prompted others to share their own mid-life quirks. The post read:"Today I had an argument with the birds of our backyard.I took down the bird feeder to fill it and all the foliage had a cacophony of noises as if to say, 'Took you long enough.' This was not the happy sounds of birds loving life. This was the sounds of demands. I told them I’ve been busy and they’ll just have to wait.I then decided to shift the hummingbird feeder a bit because lately I’ve been banging into it despite having it in the same spot for several years.I shit you not, as I was on the ladder a hummingbird came over and hovered near me giving me the death stare. I told her that I was just moving it and to give me a second.My god what has happened to me?What’s your recent 'life in your 40s' story?Update: The hummingbird has come back several times now rather pissed the feeder has moved 3 inches. She won’t drink out of it, but keeps checking to see if I have put it back.Update 2: After hours of me telling her I’m not moving it, she finally drank. I win." from Xennials Other Reddit users' 40-something stories did not disappoint. Some had their own bird encounters to share:"My husband is hell bent on befriending the local crows. He bought a 25 lb. bag of peanuts and throws a handful out on to the deck every morning. They’re getting more and more comfortable eating closer to the house, and now they 'summon' him with aggressive caws if he’s late putting out their breakfast. His goal is to Disney Princess it at some point. #lifegoals""Hahaha I am the crazy bird lady in our neighborhood and my husband says it's like a scene from Snow White when I open the backdoor to let the dog out. All the birds and usually a chipmunk go flying!"Someone shared this classic:Bird watching sneaks up on you byu/Due-Paramedic8532 inXennialsAnd another added:"Well, I'm glad it's not just me.I'm 42, and last summer I really started feeding the birds, but I'd intentionally let the feeder go empty for a day or two. My goal was that they'd eat some of the yellow jackets that are frequently hovering near my south facing wall. They bitched an absolute ton when I would fill the feeders. They would eat the yellow jackets though.Then, this last fall, my cameras caught me singing 'Muh birds, muh birds, gonna feed muh birds' while carrying my bag of seeds. I was happy as clam. The wifey showed me, and the kids, the footage. Now, whenever I'm feeding the birds, my middle son starts singing it to me.I used to chase bad guys, with a gun, and a taser (I was in law enforcement for a decade, I fix robots now.) Now, I have an eleven year old harassing me because I'm nice to the local wildlife."There were also lots of body betrayal experiences:"If I sit for too long it’s exhausting and I have to go lay down and get some rest.""I slept funny last night, and I don’t think I’ll ever recover.""No joke. I literally slept weird 4 weeks ago and have been dealing with a pinched nerve in my neck ever since. Went from 42 to feeling 82 overnight.""Last week I sneezed while in the shower and threw my back out.""If I feel a sneeze coming when I am in the shower, I sit down. Standing shower sneezes are how you break a hip.""Can’t trust my lower GI to do anything right anymore.""I start peeing the second I head into the bathroom to pee."And a host of other random middle-agey realities:"Complaining about the price of cereal.No clue of today’s music.Go big or go home? Buddy you didn’t even need to ask the question. Home.Lastly, my daily word search.""I didn't make it to the store today, and the window/will to leave my house has passed, so I'll probably go another week without the items I intended to purchase today ?""My friend is having a pool day and I don’t want to go. I don’t want to take off my clothes and I really just want to chill in my house because I work tomorrow and I need a day to get ready.""I went to bed at 4pm and woke up at 11 on the 4th of July. 41 doesn’t hit like 21 did. ?""I’m 45, and my boyfriend is 32. We went through an exhibit Friday and he finished long before I did because I had to stop and read all the plaques and information, which I never use to do.""Yeah I just built a raised garden bed and am super excited to plant squash! Wtf happened to me…."Here's to the joys of aging! May your backs be limber and your birds be plentiful.

We all want what’s best for our pets. Unfortunately, what’s best for them isn’t always what they want. This happens with children, too, but it’s especially tricky since we don’t share the same language as our four-legged friends. Still, we manage to find ways to get our pets to cooperate with us, even if they’re not happy about it. Or so we think, anyway. For example, Samantha Jo was so sure that her German shepherd was properly crate trained… but was hilariously proven wrong. As Samantha explains in the caption of her video, she has good reason for sometimes keeping her pup in a crate. In her own words, it’s for the dog’s “protection/safety,” adding that she “can’t have my baby getting hurt.” Her dog, on the other hand, simply did not care. Watch the unexpected way this adorable German Shepherd kept escaping in the viral video below. @samanthajo1007 Its for your protection/safety! Cant have my baby getting hurt. Two months and the convict hasn’t escaped #crate #cratetraining #escapeartist #dog #dogsoftiktok #germanshepherd #germanshepherdsoftiktok #gsdoftiktok #gsd #escape #fypシ゚viral #fypage ♬ Bad Reputation – Joan Jett I don’t know about you, but I had to watch that video a few times to understand what is going on. Ultimately, though, it seems that the dog was able to bust out of the crate in a way that remained hidden to Mom, as long as she didn’t catch him in the act. Like this dog, you may be wondering: How did Mom even find out that he was escaping, given the fact that there was no evidence of his crimes? When Mom is Away, This Clever German Shepherd Escapes His Crate At the moment, Samantha hasn’t outright said how she came to suspect her dog of escaping. That said, a reply she left to a comment on her video may be the clue we’re looking for. And, for anyone who has ever had a pet, it probably won’t be surprising at all. “My Malinois did this too! Was wondering how my bread was always gone when I never ate it,” the commenter shares, to which Samantha replies, “He would steal my bread too! That’s so funny!” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here! The post Hidden Camera Reveals How German Shepherd Has Been Escaping His Crate Every Day appeared first on InspireMore.

“The first quarter-century of your life was doubtless lived under the cloud of being too young for things, while the last quarter-century would normally be shadowed by the still darker cloud of being too old for them; and between those two clouds, what small and narrow sunlight illumines a human lifetime!” – James Hilton, Lost Horizon The post The Editors’ Quote of the Day: appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com.
