Wow, this computer has 64MB of RAM, my mind is blown. I'm going to be able to play Doom like a boss.
Wait, that doesn't say MB.
Fuck. I need to go and have a lie down. -
I made a personal home page to show everyone in the world who I am and tell them about my hobbies.
It has beautiful gif animations to make it look very professional and I optimized it for Internet Explorer with a resolution of 1024x768.
I made it with MS Frontpage.
It has a visitor counter and a lot of hyperlinks to the best websites in the whole internet (I swear).
Please write in my guestbook!
Happy surfing! -
@Demolishun I dare to disagree.
Worms, liero, minesweeper, solitaire, prehistoric, atlantis, entity, indy, ...
Bet of all -- battle city. -
@netikras street fighter, street fighter 2, mortal kombat were better back then. True.

kiki356221dah, the sweet sweet times when my drunk grandpa forgot the stroller with 1 y.o. me on the street when it was -35 degrees Celsius outside, and I almost died from a long battle with pneumonia afterwards. Not at all helped by my shitstain of a mother trying to cure it with homeopathy. Good times!

@kiki good ol slavic child abuse.
I remember a girl in moskow telling me that they still have a week off hot water every year to make people stronger -
@kiki also they once forgot me on the gas station on their way to holiday. I stayed there for an hour wondering where did they go
-
@donkulator dude... that was fancy\rich and\or very late 90s...
i remember collecting all the AOL floppy disks they gave out for free to wipe and use them for storage.
my friend's mom's laptop had BSOD so was going to be thrown away.... the BSOD also included the phone number to microsoft tech support, answered by real people in the USA, and a machine-specific code that had to be given to a live rep with the serial number so they could get the code to give you, the professional, to go beyond the BSOD and fix whatever.
After successfully fixing it (and in hindsight still wondering why no one ever mentioned to me that i was a little (7\8) yr old girl bullying tech support) i did get AOL running... on the 4mb of total RAM. -
@SidTheITGuy pretty sure u still have it. itd make so much sense, given your rapid irrational demeanor and persistent aggressive yet nonsensical ideas. tbh, it lines up perfectly.

kiki356221d@antigermanist that one week off thing is a price you pay for the entire autumn/winter/early spring worth of dirt cheap heating everyone's apartment had preinstalled when the house was built, so… fine by me. I'll just get a water heater and use it for a week every year. That's what everyone is doing

@Lensflare not sure if you're being sarcastic... but it does totally seem like something youd do.
i built myself a laptop (saws and solder), taught myself basic binary... fortran and C... wrote the drivers for my frankenlaptop then made a little server to host websites i was building for small businesses. i never actually considered making a personal site til years later and that was for my arts and crafts business... i totally used to have the domain coolcrafts.com (i need to see wtf it is now) -
@cafecortado
duuude...(somewhat irrelevant) look up the music video for TLC no scrubs.
i was trying to explain old 'good'(shit) music videos to this girl that worked for me and randomly was searching and clicked on that. there's beyond a nip slip near the end. totally brought my point home though lol -
figoore24624hawesome! i just received an e-mail with naked pics of Anna Kournikova...
i just need to wait 4 days till i can download and see it (if no-one calls) -
Lensflare1783922h@figoore it‘s very exciting to see those pixels slowly filling up the screen row after row 😂

you went to your friend's house to check if they were there. you had absolutely no plan, just show up and fuck around
*69 was not a sex joke
No cameras anywhere. break into anywhere as a kid, hell yeah
renting VHS tapes by collecting pennies
in Ukraine they sold 1$ bootleg operating system, industry software, video games on random street corners. perfectly cracked
CD disks in cereal boxes
gamestop had no franchises, super cool weird ass games that had personality and intrigue and were like experimental art pieces
I HAD A CRAZY ROBOT DOG. it was like 500$. also a remote control car. I could train the damn dog, that thing was amazing
goosebumps novels!
we would set stuff on fire for funsies also. what else is there to do?
and caught a bunch of lizards, snakes and kept them as pets. bugs. a pigeon once -
SidTheITGuy971212h@awesomeest it's just sad at this point. You trying to epic own me in an argument 1800 days after you were last here, desperately trying to get that last hit of serotonin by writing that and thinking you "got" me.
So sad, it makes me laugh ngl. -
@Lensflare I'm not called Kevin :(
In france Kevin have a heavy baggage as you would be percieved as some uneducated white trash watching too much american tv show -
kiki356228h@antigermanist “In France, they call people like you Les Incompetes.”
— Kevin McCallister‘s sister to Kevin McCallister -
@antigermanist yeah in Germany Kevin also means something like this, but it‘s also a common name.
