Yeah, Google today feels like the end stage of many of the pre-Google search engines. They were ok for a while, but eventually SEO tricks took over and ruined everything for everyone. What I worry about is that back in the 90s, everyone had a healthy dose of skepticism for anything you read off the internet. That’s not true today, and there’s a whole lot more incentive to put false information out there these days.
- otherotherchris 5y agoGetting on the internet in the mid to late 90's required a fair bit of intelligence to set up a modem and drivers, "kids what the hell is UART", configure DUN settings, download and maintain browsers, etc. I blame the iMac G3 and specifically Jeff Goldblum for all of this mess. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0QK0JfHzhg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0QK0JfHzhg
