That's an 8" floppy, not a 5-1/4". It's unlikely you had Oregon Trail on that.
Comment on Scientology Protest Mask (2008-02-06 19:12:49)
Ah. Sorry that was confusing. I didn't intend the reader to make that logical leap. Read the last sentence where I refer to Scientology as a "fringe philosophical movement", rather than a religion. The Anonymous NYC protest is about Scientology suppressing our Freedom of Speech on the Internet. My point was that if you really care about your liberties and freedoms, you should be paying attention to what recognized religions are trying to do, rather than wasting time on Scientology.

Who called Scientology a religion?

Know what's scarier than scientology? Recognized religions like Christianity. Get your f&@king priorities straight, people. Real threats to your liberty are coming from theocratic nutballs like George W. Bush, not fringe philosophical movements like Scientology.

That's part of the Tour of California. Some of the parts of the ride in San Francisco are unbelievably steep.
Comment on Acoustic Coupler (2008-01-30 19:05:20)
I never really thought about the age of the people that come to this site until now. hoi1ma - Modems used to use acoustic couplers to connect to your phone system. Exclesior - Yes, modems modulate an analog carrier signal in order to transfer digital information. Modem is short for MOdulator-DEModulator. Am I the only one who reads this blog who has actually used one of these before? Does anyone else remember when we thought a 300 baud modem was really fast?
