I'm thinking back to when we were excited over BBS in 1984... It will be interesting to see how this all evolves.

I saw it evolve as an advertising executive. The more you privatize and monetize, the less “free” the speech. By design.

It was interesting to see it's use with DoD and SORTS while I was active into this monster.

👀 And for instance, if you Google “BBS” instead of “bulletin board system” you’re getting rimmed. And not in the way you think. 😉

Ha! My 1200 baud modem has so many questions... So does my old TI-99 and TRS-80

I had a TRS-80C with 16K. Detasseled corn all summer for it. 🙈🤣🤣🤣

Well the TI-99 was a gift. The Trash 80, I did gopher work on rigs for a couple of holidays. In the 80s, we could make tons of money when the oil-field was doing well...
