I think I can say that I beat everyone here when it came to using the internet.

I had access to it in 1984 at an Air Force Base in Arkansas. My dad's best friend let me "talk" to other military installations who happened to be chatting at the time.

It only had limited availability to the public at that point..

Sounds like a messaging system to me, not part of the TCP/IP network.

You didn't beat me, in any case, because I had access to the Usenet through the uni in 1984.

When I think of all those ancient systems I managed to acquire, still working...that I scrapped.

Only question is which stink would you rather surround yourself with?

Do not vape. It is the first world equivalent of huffing jenkem. The scent masks the stench.

Even if that was true, it's still a hell of a lot better than smoking.

I don't think "vaping" means what you think it means.

Odeon is slowly turning I2 into WP. It's okay I see a number of factors for this and have discussed it before. It is shake your head disappointing but not the end of the Earth
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.
