That obsession with weirdly shaped windows with no window manager decor
Mmm… Sonique.
I remember downloading like a 1GB RealVideo video (over 56k dialup) of a South Park episode as a kid because we didn’t have Comedy Central and I wanted to see it since everyone was talking about it at the time. I remember nothing else about the format aside it being advertised as super high def but the files were also massive and hard to find in the first place because NOBODY used it.
Realmedia player. They tried so hard to make people like it…
It would have been better if I had something better than dial-up internet.
This was lovely! Are there any other communities that share interesting posts from small blogs like this?
apps had so much soul back in the day.
I remember updating the bios on my igabyte motherboard in 2018. The utility program for updating it was stylized as an oblong ellipse with green slime animations, blinking lights, and this was probably written in 2012 ( the time amd fx was a thing), so I guess the style didn’t fully disappear even in the age of windows 8.
