One thing that was missed was how many times you got something completely different. Downloading Thief? You get Black and White. Ren and Stimpy? Aurora Snow throatfucking video. (my first proper exposure to porn)

I appreciate the internet of today because I know what it was like when it was taking off.

You were lucky if you got a 31kbps connection. Then you would set your computer to download that videogame, which would tie up your phoneline for 3 days. That's why you downloaded one of those FREE DOWNLOAD MANAGER 300% SPEED BOOST programs.

The kids whose first contact with computers will be through VR goggles will be so jaded.

Dr.Caligari posted:But back on the topic of most pirated files, I remember my first pirated album was Rage Against The Machines Evil Empire and it took for-goddamn-ever. It was in .ra or .ram or some other realaudio format and sounded like poo poo. If I took all the hours I spent trying to download that WHOLE ALBUM , and started raking grass or something, I would have had enough money to buy the cd 10 times over. It's the journey, not the destination.

I finally successfully connected and got into filling out a registration form. I got stumped on the "ANSI or ASCII" question when suddenly the screen went blank and a message slowly scrolled across. It dawned on me that someone was typing the message out in real time and it terrified me for some reason. "you are the worst lamer i have ever seen. never call here again." lol

mycomancy posted:While all of those are words I know, I'm not certain what that combination is supposed to mean. The first porn I had was a particularly disgusting deepthroat video masqueraded as a Ren & Stimpy episode, but I still liked it because it was the only piece I had. I assume others have had similar experiences.
