Welcome to Computer History.
We are nolstagia driven with our choice of posts and discussion of the impact of technology.
A lot of what ends up posted here has a bias towards the 1970s' up until now simply because "we" experienced a lot of this "new" technology directly as it was released.
Our community goal is to become more than just a collection of links-- we want to be a community of shared experience.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.capebreton.social, are as follows:

Who the heck writes cents as a fraction?
As an American, it would be weird for me to see it as a decimal, however I can't say I've ever really thought about it. It's just "traditional" for checks to be written that way here, and how we're taught in school.
Also American and I've always used decimal in the numerical box and the fraction in the spelled out line.
