EVEN OLDER!
I had so many burned CDs with games and music... This was back when ADSL internet was the hot new thing with incredible download speeds of 30kb/s
Yes
Tell your kids we used to burn cd for entertainment, then proceed to take a torch to the cd.
To be fair I've done that too haha.
Don’t hurt me like this.
I actually remember albums. They were these physical discs that actually existed within our 3D world. Made entirely of vinyl, they played on a modular device designed entirely for their use and their use alone. In comparison, they were close to the same thickness, but considerably larger than even the ancient CD-ROMs were!
And they sounded SOOOOO much better than anything you’ve ever heard.
I still do this, minus limewire because it doesn't exist
Where are the speakers, that warned you about incoming calls?
My first pirated copy of windows was 3.1.
I remember doing that...
last year (besides limewire, I needed some CDs to copy to minidiscs)
8088 era is in da house.
The good old days of getting music from IRC or MP3 download websites found with Altavista.com
Just to play them back with WinPlay3 on a computer that used 100% CPU just to play back a file and dropped audio frames anyway.
Tech culture is around 10 years late here in India. So I can say I have worked with above tools. But CD Roms are now thing of past. Pen Drives, HDD and SDD are now tool of the game now.
Okay okay but why sharpies? You can still buy and use those today, did you know?
Don't you know? Kids these days only know something twerk something eat hot chips something be bisexual etc..
1st computer I used was an Apple ][e in first grade. Figured out how to make Spirographs with logo.
Laughs in IRC.
Giggles in BBS.
Two day downloads because kermit was the only download protocol that working with the endpoint due to noise in the connection. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kermit_(protocol)
What was a I downloading? A bmp of a topless Samantha Fox.
Edit: I decided to take stroll down memory lane and have discovered that there were two Samantha foxes one was in pornos and the one I'm remembering was a page three girl in the UK. The page I found had them as the same person even though they look nothing alike.
