Thank you for engaging with my beige content!

I learn a lot of things scrolling (with the keyboard arrows) on one of those.

At the time it seems that you could have actually read all the internet.

Hardware was pricey and software crashed a lot (We were on windows everything), but each peace of software was small and straight forward.

To have anything working (local network, share the printer, having the hacked exe of warcraft to launch…) it was hours of trying, testing, randomly putting numbers in shitty designed config files, until it works.

Downloading a movie was a days long task. Blocking the phone. And if it fails you’ll have to start all over again.

And we didn’t know how, but it worked.

Now we can instantly access an immensely vast amount of things by just taping and subscribing and the browser remembers the numbers of our credit card.

Creating a new software can be done in one or two hours.

We just tap a button for the network to work.

There is an app for everything,. particularly what we have not asked for.

And everything on the internet tastes like shit.

The LED will come back. Or all tech thingies will become minitel 2.0

Maybe we will roll back to papers.
