green monochrome monitors were so futuristic when i was a little crow

like, you have to understand, coding in quickbasic was so exciting, we only needed 640kb of ram, and floppy disks were actually floppies

ofc, the first thing i did was to crash the computer in the most destructive way possible

i have no idea how i did it, but that cpu burned

@SamanthaCayne big mood :blobnervous:

they're a precious and limited resource

@Chel that was a thing.

my favorite part of that was telling people "yeh, we wrote our own software" and looking at the incredulity and laughter from people

then they saw it and were like, "uh fuck, this can't be real!?"

ofc, none of this matters bc forums are now the old thing and uh... federated stuff is the new hotness????

thinking back to my days running forums and such

...I honestly hated just about every single forum suite I've ever used, with the exception of one that @Scarly made, and I only liked that one because I dictated basically every aspect of it.

@sky holy crap this is adorable :blobsleepless:

the vrchat angle makes it doubly awesome :o

@fluffy yeaaaahhh, the cost of living is just horrific. my partner and I are planning on leaving WA next year due to it >_>

@fluffy oh for the love of...🤦

and here I thought I was just shitposting.

@fluffy was this in Seattle? cause this sounds like some Seattle style shit.

@wersimmon@queer.garden honestly

that's pretty much the struggle when it comes to pasta of any sort

looking at the 70K grant or whatever from Samsung NEXT and can't help but see flashes of every other foss or community lead that turned out to be Into That Capitalism when the corporations call. the juxtaposition of issues around paying mods doesn't help the vibe.

@wersimmon@queer.garden the reminder to take my pills is appreciated XD

food 

@phyrry it turned out very well, I'm happy to say :blobbunhappy:

food 

sloppy joes have been slopped.

simple enough, even with homemade sauce, that it doesn't require too much in the way of spoons to make. one of my favorite low-ish effort meals.

@Scarly same.

though less awkward timing, and more just awkward silence

@desvox I have never seen one of those motherfuckers before in person, and I hope I never do because holy fucking shit that crap is fucking stupid
