I miss mIRC, maybe it is time to take a look back.

You Really Think Someone Would Do That? Just Go On the Internet and Tell Lies?
I don’t think about programming at all, no offense.
That was an incredible phone, it even had a little d-pad so your could tab one character around at a time when texting. Physical keyboards felt so good, but it made the phone a lot thicker.
I would also like to know why Dale Earnhardt is in so many maymays lately.
We don’t need to forget how great Hong Kong was up until a few years ago.
Everything after ascii art was a mistake. It feels childish to use emoticons, a lot of users here grew up on platforms that only had text and to see emoticons is jarring. Needing to use an image for emotional context is poor writing.
Does it have longer legs than starcraft and warcraft 3? It is amazing how they got that one game perfect, and they still tweak and add more civilizations to it.
I am imagining the horrible graphics of Red Baron 3d (1998) played at a ludicrously crisp frame rate through VR goggles. The game had fast forward and play buttons because it took so long to fly over to the trenches or to ascend to a decent altitude. Solid idea though, it would be hectic with numerous biplanes dog fighting over France.
Edit: there are youtube videos of players using VR headsets and flying biplanes on IL-2 Sturmovik: Flying Circus (2019).
I enjoyed this a lot, thank you for the nostalgia.
The ongoing support for Age of Empires 2 is proof that the RTS will continue to endure, and they got it 90% perfect a couple decades ago. Microsoft was even able to do it without ruining the previous versions of the game… looking at you warcraft.
Only about 4% of the worlds population had internet access in 1999.
The thought of having your digital foot print live on forever was kind of neat, but most of it wasn’t worth remembering or will probably get deleted after a few decades anyways. Future generations will ever know about the witty banter on yahoo answers.
Disc drive consoles are great for people who go months with terrible or no internet. People in the military, or just about anyone who goes out to sea can get a disc mailed to them. It is nice to have physical media to play the games off of.
I am pretty excited to slowly repost all my old content here over the course of several months to reap all those fake internet points again. It isn’t reposting if it is a new website.
I wish it had the same effect as version 4 of digg. He is probably still over there, editing posts he doesn’t like.
Singapore is also beautiful, they slap you with a cane for littering.
