Damn, this just kicked my nostalgia centers into high gear.

I'm not sure it's either one but I got a headache watching those videos so... Thanks!

I swear there was a Retro Encabulator like video for computers on Youtube where the focus wasn't a thing but a productivity software (or something like it). For the life of me I couldn't ever find it after watching it once.

I know a large group of weirdos that are probably flipping their shit with this. Not only the superior siege engine but the supersonic one too.

One of my a ex-girlfriend's mother was one of the doctors that tended to some of the sick. She didn't like to talk about it, saying the movie covered what she saw but, ~20 years later (at the time we were dating) she didn't l

As a kid, for me it was a place to find fun shareware/free games (like Hack, Rogue's son and Nethack's daddy) and chat with folks from other places in town. When I was 16-ish I built a few small BBSs (online after 10p until 8

If you just want the tech stuff, it's very sparse but I greatly enjoyed the connection between the two protagonists. It was also a nice way of teaching my wife about what the world of computers was like in the 90's.

I clicked on this comment section because I knew I'd cry for your heartwarming stories. I leave very satisfied and thankful for your tales.

Brazil has a tax program that has always been multi-platform for well over a decade. This year, when filing my taxes, that there was also a simplified online/mobile version for folks without computers. To be fair, US's tax code is

I'll admit I bought in to Star Citizen - I am/was in a good place financially and the money spent isn't something I fondly miss. I remember the early days where Chris Roberts would say anything to folks asking for things like

I remember when it came out as a swiss army tool for videos - loved it since the first version I got (off Slashdot) and I've been using it since. Good job folks at VideoLAN! Thanks for reminding me I'm an old fart!

Brits pronouncing Merope "muh-rope" and insisting they're right is the most british ever.

It's quite obvious that you have a greivence against part of the reddit user base since, as you mentioned, you have been the focus of their hate before. I appreciate your opinion on why the other subreddits were taken offline but I mus

This makes me very, very sad. Goodnight Sir Terry, we'll always remember you.

I'd gladly upgrade if they offered something in between, let's say 500G for $5 a month/ $50 per year. Current pricing keeps my stuff on Google, it's not as useful (still waiting for a Drive client for Linux) but it'

So damn cool it's scary and so damn scary it's cool. I laughed as it made me reflect a little on how boring my life is lately.

It's not doomed but it's not doing to well. The last versions have not been different enough to warrant new version numbers and Firefox 8, while being decidedly quicker for some tasks, has been incredibly slow for my mundane tasks. I'm a ha

I still read Slashdot but not as much as I did "back in the day" - it's my chicken soup site, where I go to feel comfortable surrounded by like minded folks. While Jobs' resignation is big corporate news, CmdrTaco's might be bigger communit

I agree, It has nothing to do with Reddit. It's all about how Digg managed, as if by miracle, to scuttle its own boat in a few hours. Digg didn't feel like Digg anymore after the change so I looked for something that felt like digg and fou
