A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
This was cutting edge tech... I remember the excitement of replacing floppy discs with CDRs...
I remember my old car stereo that would run mp3 files off of a CD, shit was so tight! Didn't need to transcribe the music as audio tracks so you could fit so much more Linkin Park tracks on a CD than ever before, god those were the days
laughs in IRC, magnetic disks, and a 486
Older sister's emo phase. Mom's Honda Passport. 'I Write Sins' blasting through cheap car stereos. Mandatory trips to the mall. Those were the days.
Barely but yeah
No, because my country was pretty much too small and poor to have brand-name sharpies, we just had felt pens with other names. Carioca I believe was the most prominent brand back then.
How did the Sharpie get dragged into this? I still need to use one of those for work.
Anyway, i fit the description. Win.com, Soundblaster IRQ, Audiogalaxy, BBS, etc. It seemed like it was more fun back then. Marketing ruined everything. 🤷♂️
If you aren't this old I don't think you can be called old yet
We still have Sharpie.
I think it's listing these as one item, not four. Use LimeWire to download the songs on the PC, burn it to a CD, then label it with the Sharpie.
This is a direct attack. Defederate this motherfucker!
Ouch. I'm used to "do you feel old" posts being relatable, but the black theme on the computer tower and the 700mb disc hurt me. I remember feeling sci-fi as fuck when I finally got rid of my old off-white/beige tower for a black tower, and scoffing at the idea of removable media holding more than a few mb of data.
I'm so old I remember when disks were floppy, came in the 7" size, and were an awesome replacement for punch cards.
Still haven't beat Zork tho...
Hell, my daughter used limewire.
bruh 💀 my grandpa had me burning CDs for him forever
I made one the other day, though I bought the music from HDTracks instead of "acquiring" it from Limewire or Kazaa. Burned it to a CD because the bus I drive has a CD player but no SD card slot or anything.
I remember lightscribe and thinking it was going to replace my need for sharpies but it was just a gimmick and while cool not very useful given the cost of disks
Wow, lime... Those times
People that age will see this and say "hell yeah"
