Tick tock baby ducks

bill gates has nothing on this dream boat, he's got a bright future
There's this weird WorldWideWeb thing that's being a particle collider lab, should I buy a NexStation to run it or just keep with my BBS?
>>107528108No, it's a nothingburger
>>107527731In 1991 the amiga absolutely was destroying PCs
>>107527843mac still is terribleit's only redeeming program is logic, because audio data is relatively small enough it's not all fucked up
this could be your desktop
Go back to alt.4chan.pol. Fucking dissolution tourists.>>THE SOVIET UNION FELL! COMMUNISM IS OVER! NO MORE WARS! NO MORE CONFLICTS! NO MORE TRAGEDIES! THE END OF HISTORY IS HERE! LIBERAL DEMOCRACY IS INEVITABLE FOR THE WHOLE WORLD!>>THE FUTURE WILL BE A TIME OF PEACE AND PROSPERITY FOR ALL!
Check out what mom got me for Christmas!
I can't wait until GNU/Hurd is released!
What calculator does /g/ use?
>>107527791The Turbo button ran your CPU as full clock speed (eg 66MHz). Some older software (like games) from a 25MHz 386 would run too fast for you to actually use them.Turning off the Turbo button would downclock your CPU to around 25MHz so you could use older software normally. Warcraft II Tides of Darkness is one example I remember needing to be downclocked.
>>107529070ackshulley they would just say "GNU" in 1991 since they thought they would be making a complete system
>>107527458Fucking TV posters
>>107527410In 1991 we had a Tandy and I was scared of Wolfenstein

>>107527845a blue LED? man, you gotta lay off that pipe
>>107528959Based, on the powerful POWER architecture
>>107529212Your supposed to pretend it’s 1991, Warcraft II Tides of Darkness won’t be released for another 5 years
>>107528277Stop toppostingLet me guess, you’re here since September
It took me 25 minutes to load this thread on my 56k because you guys keep posting huge images
>1991>using Emacs AKA Eight Megabytes And Constantly SwappingI seriously hope you guys don't do this.
>>107527779thanks but I will stick to DOS, windows is a bloated slop
>>107530674I can wait to have ISDN with 128k
>>107530674>he doesn't have fast internet at the officesucks to suck
>>107530694delete system16
home computers living their last years.
>>107527410You should learn Pascal, Ada, Lisp, and Smalltalk because that's what everything is going to be written in for the rest of the decade and the start of next millennium until we get better languages. Also did you hear about those Lisp machine expansion cards they make for Macs? Finally I'll be able to have a Lisp machine at an affordable price. I can't wait to run some AI programs at home.
>>107531245Nice
>>107527410>/g/ in 1991Which month exactly?Depending on the time of the year I could be a fetus or a baby
>Turbo: ONlet's gooo
>>107527470cow computer

>>107527827yeah. anon was feeding the c64 data scraped from 4chan, acting as a read only terminal. you couldn't post but you could read things>>107527731>rajeesh doesn't knowgood morning sar!

>>107527410lost my connection while downloading my 500kb naked janeway bitmap. day totally ruined.
>>107532209>Friday 15-Jul-94This nigga from the future.
>>107528247HTTP is bloat. I hear Gopher is the future.
>>107530550sorry, I'm only 8 years old and blue is my favourite flavour
Hey guys, I was looking through Usenet the other day and found out about some Finnish guy making his own free operating system. It sounded pretty cool.I wonder if we'll ever be able to run a full operating system consisting only of free software.
>>107529212>Warcraft II Tides of Darkness is one example I remember needing to be downclocked.Our memories conflict. I definitely didn't play Warcraft II with my 486 66MHz downclocked.
>>107535798>monolithic kernel>needs a 386Disgusting bloat. Hurd will be out soon anyway.
i can't fucking wait for the SNES guys
time for some gamedev, lmao at EGA shitters
So what do you guys think about this new CD-ROM thing? Will it ever catch on? 650MB sounds like a lot. I can't imagine they'll ever make games big enough to use all that space.
eastern bloc bros, I have a feeling we are all gonna make it
>>107536024Nothing will happen
>>107535798It will go away soon, free software is just a fad
>>107536024You can change the regime, but you can't change Russians being Russian
>>107536024>>107536630>>107539542Go back to alt.4chan.pol
snapped a pic in the city! my dad says one day i'll be working in those tall ones lol
My mom just bought me a pentium 100 with turbo to 133! And it has 100MB of storage! That's almost 70 diskettes!
it is now desktop thread

>>107528247I had this Eizo monitor from like 2002 to 2004.It was standing on the curb for e-waste, took it home and it served me well for those years. Since it was a 21inch monitor from 1990 or so the tube was already really tired and dim but still a great monitor. Thing was an absolute BEAST with its flat tube. Heavy as fuck you can't even imagine.
>>107527410just playing lemmings
I'm thinking of developing my own OS based on unix, any tips?
sorry guys my mom had to make a call so i haven't kept up, what did i miss?
>people using PCs as if Sinclair was going to disappearkek
>>107535957Floppy disks just work.
>he fell for the CD-ROM meme
>>107527843Mac II was great, just ultra expensive to max out the system (like $10k in 1988 money)
>>107527410You are 23 years too late to.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJDv-zdhzMY
>>107529212It was the opposite anon, you pushed the turbo button to downclock the CPU. Then again it may have been different between makes. My first PC had one and I had to push the turbo button or the incredible machine would run too fast.
>>107529212I thought it usually downclocked to around 8 MHz FSB, doubled to 16 if you had a DX2, making it perform similarly to 16-25 MHz 386.
>>107532074No, it starts up at 66 and you push turbo to make it go slower.
>>107528247NextStep was a strange DE
Just upgraded to 8MB, cost me 300$I can't wait for the future when it's so abundant it will become dirt cheap!
>>107527410bros I just sold half of my real estates for this, it called a mobile phone, isn't it so cool? surely this is worth itt. third worlder
>>107544212I am eavesdropping on all of your analogue phone calls
>>107544235I remember using a ham radio and letting it scan frequencies and coming across peoples phone calls occasionally. They switched frequencies a lot though.
I'm 4 years old and what is this
