My first porn was on floppy disk
There's something poetic about using a floppy disk to get hard
I wonder if they could now make floppy disks with the same form factor but modern tech
Like this?
I thought it was gonna be a USB drive but this works too
Haha, that's cool
If you put a small, double sided optical disk inside, you could probably get a few hundred gigs in there, maybe even up to a terrabyte or three. If you put flash storage, you could fit a few dozen terrabytes. Hell, you could build that yourself if you just bought a bunch of microsd cards and soldered the contacts into a different form factor
My first porn was probably NNTP (newsgroups) before I even had the actual WWW. Had to learn how to stitch images together from multiple posts in the early-mid '90s.
4chan... I rolled the fucking dice and lost I guess.
Forté Agent was a blessing
I thought the name sounded super familiar, but I had to look it up. My dad was into BBS and CompuServ in the '80s. He eventually got AOL, which is where I got started with NNTP. I really need to get his history on these things. I know that, when I was super young in the early '80s when they divorced, he was often spending a lot of time online. I'd really like to know more about that era as my memories are scattered and fractured.
UUE decoding!
3.5", 5.25" or the monster 8" is the question...
I downloaded my first porn from Kazaa, over dial-up.
