Ahh autocorrect 🤦

Go for the pain tier (even though it’s FOSS) 100% worth it.

WFH > Office cubicle > Open plan chaos

I remember the fear any time something was greater than 1MB. My first download on any new computer was always a download manager to try and avoid the constant drop-outs and restarts.

Loving the discussion & history here.

I started my online journey on a bleeding edge (and very expensive) 28.8k modem. I still remember the amazing feeling of speed migrating to 33.6k and eventually 56k. We were semi-rural so while the eventual availability of DSL was game changing, our lines were so bad it was less reliable that dial-up. If it rained we had no internet whatsoever.

So glad things have moved on significantly since then.

When I was 15, my dad purchased me a plaster saw (still have it) and handed me his drill.

Then told me to make it look neat, but “don’t fuck up because your mother will kill us both”.

I ran about 4 network points through the house.

Nothing like fear to produce a 100% perfect finish 😉
