ScrubblesNow there’s a face I haven’t seen in a long time
Who is it?
Heather Harmon… or so my friend says anyway.
Oooooh! I didn’t recognise her as a brunette! Now that brings back some memories…
Hmm. Time to Google (I still don’t recognize her)
You’re in for a treat… Or so my friend says anyway.
I’ve told this story before it’s funny so I’ll repeat it… It was the early 2000s and I heard a song on the radio where a man made a bunch of funny sounds with his voice and the only lyrics I remembered were “I’m the scat man”. I was interested to see what else he made…
I went on to kazza and search “scat man”, found a video I assumed was a music video and downloaded… Several hours later (56k modem)…
My childhood was lost forever.
Can definitely relate. Exploring rotten.com made quick work of my childhood innocence

What I remember (I think it was the eDonkey software) was the ads were just photos in a folder.
What I did was found dummy ads, renamed them to the names of the legitimate ads, deleted the original ads, and set the folder to read only. All I ever saw were the joke ads.
Man, that brings me back. That and the software that would update your trackers automagically every x amount of minutes.
devfuuuSo many hours. So many music I downloaded from there.
Buffalo Springfield’s ‘For What It’s Worth’ first piece of music I ever pirated when I was a little scrub. Though that was using Napster.
v_krishnaI am almost 40, and have been a VP of Engineering at multiple silicon valley based tech companies. Still I have an uncle who I’m quite sure doesn’t trust me to touch any of his computers because in the 90s I definitely bricked more than a few of his PCs by fucking around and finding out.
Breaking a few eggs to make the omelette. Unfortunately for him it was his eggs.

How could you not recognize the OG throat GOAT?
I wonder if she’s aware about how many computers she’s taking part in destroying
Avicennagod the anticipation of waiting for that download to finish
When Kazaa killed Kazaa Lite, I was upset until I got on Kazaa and downloaded Kazaa Lite.
