like every now and then i see someone with their age being like 14 or some shit in twitter or some other site and im like how tf r u so young wtf grow up shithead
I remember dial-up internet. I actually remember no internet, even at school.
I had to copy Oregon Trail code by hand because my dad wanted me to learn how to do it on (I think) an Apple II.
my family were early adopters on the internet train, but i do at least remember our teachers asking us if we had internet access at home when assigning projects
I asked this of my students in 2017. There are still a substantial amount of families who do not.
oh yeah for sure, but i lived in an area where you could expect the answer to be “yes” for everybody
Oh yeah - didn’t have internet until, like, middle school. I tried to assume my sacred duty of Posting on Usenet and it was very confusing and tried to play Command and Conquer on null modem but people kept picking up the fucking phone.
We got internet in elementary school, and my dad (at that point) was working to set all of that up, so we were a bit of an early adopter household. So we got home internet around when the school district got it.
But I still never had a console. :(
Whatever, what’s the point in a game you can’t mod?
