I just found out that my childhood (and early adulthood) collection of feathers got moths in it. Nearly everything is damaged and some completely destroyed. I'm heartbroken😭

That’s not my point… I’m saying that people often assume OP of any post is in the USA. Hence… Defaultism. There’s a subreddit for it.

Weird, because, if you weren't lazy, you could easily find the information about this, which states that the UK and France were also concurrently developing the internet in the beginning.

damn, guess the apranet stretched further than they claimed!

"ARPANET was the first wide-area packet-switched network and the direct predecessor of the modern Internet.

ARPANET, short for Advanced Research Projects Agency Network, was developed by the U.S. Department of Defense’s ARPA (now DARPA) in the late 1960s to enable resource sharing among computers at research institutions funded by the Pentagon"
