Youtube was around in 2005, realtime chat hasn't changed, cloud services and facebook suck anyway, and I had file sharing long before then.
"Everything is encrypted" is fine as well.
I hear you on "everything is bigger now," but I don't see much benefit from it.

- znpy 10y agoI am not saying nor implying that bigger is better. Come on, people! I am clearly stating that pretty much everything is bigger today, and old PCs hsve become slow because they weren't designed to handle such s volume of data. My post was only an explanation.
