@markmetz @atomicpoet @dotnet @fediversenews and the most mean thing on the internet in 1996 was the Flamewars list run by @geekboy it was super funny. @fediforum @atomicpoet @dotnet @fediversenews @geekboy Ah the frothy early 90's... Folks were calling the internet 'Mosaic', not understanding what a browser was... PGP was a clunky but effective form of private communication... Mondo 2000 was the bible, RU Sirius and Queen Mu were royalty. Terence McKenna was the psychedelic philosopher... The 'Phuture' was sure to be bright and shiny. "All Your Base Are Belong To Us" would have been the first 'meme' And Jerry Garcia was still around. @Mark Metz ✅ @Fediverse News
Ah the frothy early 90's... Folks were calling the internet 'Mosaic', not understanding what a browser was... Exactly as people today are calling the fediverse 'Mastodon', not understanding the difference between the software they use to access the network, and the network itself. |
