Computers used to be great. Even just starting them up used to be an entire event. It was both exciting and calming all at the same time.

Now, modern PCs startup within 10 seconds after which you're constantly bombarded with ads every 30 seconds.

i think its wrong to have nostalgia THAT far back. i loved the internet/computers when it was just closed off "secret club" forums, passionate people making stuff like myself. you dont need to go back that far back for when it was great.
the feelings you describe here about it being exciting and calming was just the novelty of it all. but you are totally right they wont get that feeling of discovery because theres phones, laptops lying around everywhere

Libraries used to be great. Even just driving to used to be an entire event. It was both exciting and calming all at the same time.

Now, modern ereaders startup instantly and you're constantly bombarded with ads every 30 seconds.

I fucking wish
I swear my PC 10 years ago booted faster than my one now that's way more powerful with much better hardware

I would swear shit launched faster too and I didn't need a fucking 240Hz screen to see it

I had a buddy who's dad had a computer and he left the Turbo button inactive, I showed them one day what a difference it made and what the intended use was and their minds were blown.

It boots up an entire Minix instance, to spy on you, first. Installing linux won't help, retards.

You fucking people don't know this?
That's what that now very long pause before your bios password (when pause is set to 0) is all about: Minix booting up, so you can be spied upon.

Fucking ZOOMER RETARDS.

Ads are the pinnacle of human innovation. They are the singlemost important factor in driving capitalism.
