I just noted today is my 10th anniversary since registering here.
(I was in lurk mode a few years before that)

I/O, I/O,
It's off to disk I go,
With a bit and a byte
And a read and a write,
I/O, I/O

Cool!

10 years seems like a lot but as my dad used to say , the alternative to getting older is worse. 😀

Congratulations, your membership is now at the lowest point of its price curve. I suggest the rank of Massive pile of SFF P4 office machines that can't be given away 😜

FUCK "AI". It is a tool of fascism. We do not need it. We do not use it.

Nice! Congrats!

I was a "lurker" for several years before I finally decided to sign up. I kept ending up here anytime I went down one of my retro rabbit-holes, so I figured it was about time I start using this amazing resource more actively.

I ditched all my social media a while back and decided to stick to old-school forums, though this is the only forum I'm relativity active on. Heck, I didn't even join Reddit until a few months ago, and I barely use it, and only for a couple very specific things.

same i've been lurking here a while, since 2006/2007, i only got round to registering a few years back, should have done it years ago, i'd at least be an oldbie by now, its hard being a newbie when you're a couple of years off 40, i'll prob never be l33t, like most of my pc's i suffer from memory failure.🤣

Reddit has really gone downhill of late .. the Mods tend to be overly sensitive and many of the bigger reddit are run by the same group of mods.

I actually got sick of their mod team and just deleted my account there and now only use it anonymously with burner accounts.

AI is inevitable, there is nothing you can do to stop it, no Thanos snap to save you this time.
