Hi-res pic loading about as fast as you could print them back then XD

Does anyone remember how much midi ringtones used to cost?

I used to download a lot of stuff from a nice Spanish man named War̃ez.

Still remember my father’s face when he realized I was sharing all his personal documents with Limewire.

My internet was so slow that I was tweaking all the settings and doing pattern analysis on bandwidth traffic with nonsense tweaks. So I probably tweaked that setting and felt the internet was 10kbps faster.

I also recall placing the modem under a blanket because I thought the internet was faster when the modem was warmer. My father’s face when he saw the modem had melted… and the flabbergasted repair technicians theorizing that our house was probably hit by a thunder and it caught fire somehow. Little did they know.

I was just a desperate kid willing to try anything to be able to download 1 song per day.

I lost all my mined Bitcoin in 2013 because my niece downloaded “free_robux.exe”

I tried to download a music video on limewire once. I was pretty computer illiterate back then and around 13 years old at the time when a friend at school showed me how to download things.

That music video turned out to be a woman being murdered at point blank range. It was ~5 seconds of my life but that video has never left my mind. It was far too early for video editing and far too ‘amateur’ to be a movie production. The way she begged for the guy to stop before he pulled the trigger, it was definitely real.
