minus-squarecomicallycluttered@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up17·2 years agoAh, a traditional forum. Makes sense. Since we’re talking about forums, who here is old enough to remember the IMDB message boards?
minus-squareChahk@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 years agoI’m old enough to remember dialing into different BBSs with my 14.4 Kbps modem. These days my teenaged son is complaining that his 12GB Fortnite update isn’t downloading fast enough and he has to wait a whole 20 minutes.
minus-squareJitzilla@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoI too remember those bygone days of the modem handshake sound. I wish all these kids would get off my lawn.
minus-squareAntikaon@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoOoooh! Look at you with yer fancy 14.4k modem! 13 year old me was pretty excited after swapping out a old 300 bps modem for a “blazingly fast” 1200 bps. BBS menus loaded almost instantly! Prodigy running on an IBM XT with 640k was almost usable!
minus-squareJames Kirk@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoIn all fairness, it probably did take less time to load messages on BBSs than it takes to update Fortnite :)
