Old school internet.

More like old school web but YTMND … not that old.

Back in the dial up days Remember how long it took to us too download that cracked version of Leisure Suit Larry?

True. But relevant as far as ‘turning points’ in internet history.

It’s my memory, and you can’t beat it out of me.
Believe me, I have tried.

Keep milking that snake. #FuriousMilking

Getting white screen 5500 ERRORs when trying to access the TRGs today. Once again, this is the oldest bit of internet going.

I remember using a version of the Mosaic browser that was less than 1.0.

This old school Internet forum is really slowing down. A lot of lag and frequent bad gateways.

Not sure how much longer the box fans are going to keep running. Maybe the network manager for TGR is out hunting for a robe?

Why don’t we have a Redit community?

I still have Netscape and Yahoo email addresses with my full name.

I was just wearing my old Napster tshirt last weekend and was bummed noticing it was getting pretty threadbare. I bought it from the Offspring’s website

Somewhere, I have an old hard drive loaded w 4gigs of music from back when it to took fuck knows how many minutes per song to download off Napster

I had a temp job on campus during Napster’s glory days (pre-lawsuit) that gave me a T3 connection, a Zip drive, and 2 hours of work in an 8-hour day.

This was a classic. Not all the original pictures are there anymore, but it works for nostalgia.

Gotta love the ol' dial up connections.

Back in the early days of the interwebs all we had at the UW-LaCrosse computer lab was........telnet!

My go to for bulletin board service was the University of Iowa's telnet service. Text messaging unknown strangers from across the globe.
