- giancarlostoro 4mo agoDang. That wasn't supposed to be a challenge... That will have eventually become true no matter what tbh.
- Keyframe 4mo agowe're dead, practically.
- Bluecobra 4mo agored rings of death, specifically :)
- pluralmonad 4mo agoTime to wrap us in a towel and put us in the oven!
- Sophira 4mo agoSimilarly, Windows XP's release is closer to the release of the IBM 5150 (the first-ever IBM PC) than it is to today.
- tosti 4mo agoBut the difference in computing power is more impressive between the first IBM PC in 1981 and a new PC from 2001, than between a new PC from 2001 and now. At least subjectively (it might be that software in general got more slower than hardware got faster).
