i like you.

totalcommander.exe for the win!

oh the turntables, back in the 90’s the stereotype was the 10 year old showing the 60 year old how to use the “computator”, nowadays maybe it’s the 60 year old showing the 10 year old there are open source alternatives for image editing apps, office apps, and most things with a tappable tablet interface.

yeah, we’d need more Geosities banner ads and <flash/> html tags to go back to the Macweb1.0/Mosaic era. …Sometimes I still visit zombo.com to feel young again.

i share your memory

kind of like when back in usenet days a usenet server could choose to not include certain newsgroups, such as someone not wanting to store all the data for alt.binaries.pron.hamsters on their server or whatnot?

alt.lemmy.shitposting

Thunderbird with Lightning to reproduce all the outlook functionality

cool, good to know. Thanks.

great graphic thanks!

so what happens if the server i have a user account on disappears? does my account disappear and I just make a new one on a different server? do all the posts/comments disappear like if a user deletes their account on reddit?

yes, usenet user from way back, so this all makes sense. So I could start the group “spandex hamsters” all about making ballet unitards for hamsters, and it will show up as a community for all Lemmy users (Lemmings?). ie. everyone has the ability to make alt.hamsters.spandex in the old Usenet parlance.

cool beans, thanks.
