@gabe_saltar It worked well under PC-BSD #BackInTheDay but would auto-log you out, losing all your work for you. Good impressions otherwise.

Back in the day, when children were quiet, it usually meant one of two things—deep focus in play or plotting mischief. Parents learned fast: silence wasn’t always peace, sometimes it was the calm before crayons hit walls or cookies disappeared.

Ohh hell yeah! I just took some #Ibuprofen just now =D

Do you remember debugging why a new drive didn't work in the computer and then realize you needed to set these suckers to a different setting?

As I was saying elsewhere my old Palm had an app called Gizmo still on it. Used it a lot way back. Entirely forgot that they were bought by Google.

With my niece entering her final year of high school, I got to go with her and see the school for the first time in 15 years. I'm lucky to get the chance. High school was a rough period for me, but also a great one at the same time. Walking these halls one more time hit me with all the nostalgia. Funny enough I even looked back fondly on some of those bad times, too. It wasn't really so difficult, in the grand scheme of things.

A picture of my old high school, which I got the chance to explore for the first time in over fifteen years. This is an outdoor seating area where my friends I and spent much time.

Lately, I can’t shake the feeling that in about 20 years, the '80s, '90s, and 2000s (everything before 2010) will be remembered as a kind of “golden era.”
A time when technology hadn't fully consumed our lives, and the world felt more real, raw, and human.
The music, the movies, the fashion, street culture, even the TV commercials — they all had a certain warmth and soul that’s hard to find today.
Do you think future generations will look back on that time with the same kind of nostalgia we feel now? Or are we just romanticizing the past?

32 years ago, on the evening of May 26th, I was kicked out of the walk in freezer, at the old #Fuddruckers burgers joint, with 2 skater friends who used to work there, for smoking joints.

The Fuddruckers used to be in the plaza at Blanshard & Hillside. It was famous for their hamburgers & self-serve cheese sauce. It closed around 20 years ago & the space is now occupied by a liquor store.

Youngster don't know this, but back in the day we had to defrog our hard drives regularly. That's because frogs would be naturally attracted to the drives and would nest in there. There's nothing slower than a hard drive full of frogs.

@nygl It could have been AppleLink—, we distributed via all the online services, including AppleLink, AOL, Bix, CompuServe, Delphi, GEnie, and Prodigy. (I can't believe my fingers still remember all those words.)

@adamengst I remember getting TidBITS in my Inbox back in the 1990s when I was with an Apple Reseller. I imagine it was email, unless you had an AppleLink account :) Too long ago!

David Mullen: "Spotted this MG IM5 being driven into Longbridge. Wonder if they're planning on launching in Europe any time soon? Touches of Cyberster in the design."
