Howard Beale posted:When the Sci-Fi Channel picked up MST3K they added a "Caption This!" chatroom where you riffed on live-captured Sci-Fi screenshots. People had more fun bashing the constant commercials than some of the programming, though I remember a Dark Shadows crew who had a whole alt-story going on. You did Caption This! too? I wasted so many evenings in middle school trying to be cool in there.

JnnyThndrs posted:Yeah, floppy discs got crappier, quality-wise, as time went on. The older ones -still- maintain their data OK, while newer floppies have horrendous failure rates. This happens to a lot of physical storage formats when it stops being the dominant one. I have VHS cassettes from the late 80s-early 90s that still play fine but the very last ones I bought in the early 2000s fell apart (in some cases literally) after a few uses.

Ah, those ubiquitous 80s/90s padded plastic office chairs. I remember them well.

On the subject of old Macs I used to volunteer aboard a museum ship where all the exhibits were set up to be more or less representative of 1991, the year she was decommissioned. So the exhibits department was always on the lookout for old televisions, typewriters, and so forth from the late 1980s. Somehow they overlooked one compartment where they had a blue iMac set up. Literally one of the most late 90s computers ever. I was eventually able to convince them to replace it with a first gen beige Mac they had in storage. Speaking of which, ever haul a chunky TV set up and down the nearly vertical ladders that ships use? Not fun.

My mother worked from home in the 1980s before working from home was even a thing people did. She taught me how to type using WordPerfect on a Compaq 8086 without a hard drive.
