I’m one of those old assholes who just remembers the stories as they happened. If it tells about those, it should be a fun journey. Those guys have been through a lot fighting for the ability to torrent!
Very cool! Wish I was around during those times too! But yeah, they really have and still are I guess. Kudos to all of em ✊
No ya don’t, lol. Internet was slow af, and there were no smartphones! Shit sucked! Tech is way better now, although it seems we’re constantly on the brink of wwiii. And everything is impossibly expensive. But we have electric cars and we’re maaaybe goi g to mars?
The future is t what I thought it would be.
I'd rather go back to a free and wide open but slow web compared to the corporate big brother kernel level anti-cheat world we live in today.
Back then it was a place for us nerds, techies, early adopters.
Now it's a place dominated by the rest of the world. Including all the bad stuff like politics, big corporations and ads.
It was nice for a while... We need a new place :-)
