@x1101 I'll have you know I look the same I did 30 years ago! I'm a modern man. I use anti-ageing cream every morning.

@dick_turpin I was pretty close to that age back in the LinuxOutlasw/DTRS/identica time.
You know how you've gotten older since then? Sadly, so have I.

@dick_turpin Um, are you forgetting how old older millennials are? I absolutely cut my teeth on 26k dialup and taking up a phone line. Watching images load, line by line, and videos buffer for several minutes.
I also grew up way in the sticks, so *some* of my peers did have cable internet. But I still have dial up flashbacks hearing those sounds too!

You Millennials have no idea what Dial-up was like. To find out, try looking at some of these Newspaper websites, especially your local newspaper. Christ, they take ages to load with all the ads they run.
