LOL but akshully, I am glad.

I feel like I have better context and foundation understanding of technology and software because I grew up while all of it was rapidly changing. Now everything is stagnant, and technology and software are updating to keep draining the capatism tit of tech and not investing in or even allowing actual innovation anymore. Which was welcome before.

Fuck I miss the old internet. Nothing compares

And also, we didn’t spend nearly as much time on old computers than you can now on your phone. Even with a lot of games it would be hard to stay entertained. Now you have thousands of infinite content feeds.

Speak for yourself. I did ~8h sessions with games like Creatures 2, Elite, King's Bounty.
