I feel old.

> But I was there, Gandalf. 3000 years ago. Talkers. MUDs. MOOs. IRC. FTP, Archie, Veronica, Gopher. I remember being amused when “HTTP has now overtaken FTP as the most popular protocol on the Internet.”

A look back at the early days of the CFL on the World Wide Web...
The CFL's website in 1995/96 is kind of what got me excited about the Internet.

I love watching curling during the winter Olympics (much to the disgust of Teen). However, when the teammates yell at the sweeper to more! more! it reminds me of that dumb early internet game where you're beating (and cooking?) eggs while an animated whisk yells "Pisk! du pisker, du!" and other snide remarks.

Does anybody else remember that?

It's been one year and I'm still waiting for Tara's new video.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C+ students rapping in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those memes will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Wow, the dirty punk anarchy machine is still around! This is really awesome, it's been around for 22 years and still as fun as ever.

realising now that one of the reasons the internet felt so different for me in the 2000's was the lack of video content.

I didn't have the bandwidth or internet cap to watch videos a lot, mostly got them from gaming magazine cover discs.

Hi #fedi, I am looking for the silly, AI-free, algorithm-free #internet.

I miss the internet of the 90s and early 2000s.

Realised I am visiting the same websites, which feels such a confinement, given the vast expanse of human creativity that inhabits the online world.

I am all for #serendipity, #blogs, weird facts, even silly games.

Do you have any recommendations?
