I remember my 1st Tandy Computer and downloadable porn
I seem to remember the Canadians were really into it, I had nothing but them asking to friend me .
Really Bad stuff, I told one guy I was calling the Mounties , I mean it was Bad.
 
Sorry about your compy GW. My Mac is over ten years old and has gotten slower than molasses in winter but Iike it and will keep her as long as possible. My phone and tablet are much quicker.

My computer geek tells me that by conspiracy or accumulated shit, they all get slower and the only way to fix them is to completely download them, programs and all, and start over.

What does it taste like? The straight booze at 70 proof is like Bacardi White rum. Identical. Charcoal filtered = vodka. But back then even, you could buy various potions that faked it up to taste like bourbon, or Scotch, or whatever.

The 130 proof reminds me of a tasty 130 proof brandy, but after only one more distillation in a pot still to 140 proof it tastes more like straight alcohol. I could see making 130 proof strictly for drinking purposes.

49F @ 82% RH, partially cloudy, and predicted to reach 64F.

Still struggling with bringing my old computer back on line while my "new" Dell is being temporarily fixed. I'm managed to access most of the sites on line that I frequent, but far from fixed, and will be checking out my backup drive today to see how much was saved if resurrection fails.

Looking forward to taking a hammer to the Dell that has twice forsaken me in three years, once I have it downloaded and a new computer on line. What a total POS!! It lasted less than thirty days the first time.

Heard a lot of bad stuff about Dell, but I don't have any first hand experience. Nothing but HPs for me, outside of the first desktop, a Commodore 128D. Still have it kicking around here somewhere. I've heard there's actually folks that collect the old stuff.
 
By the way. 4-13 was this threads 1yr anniversary. 👍

Whoop, whoop, ahroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations to those who made it happen!

More Portland riots to commemorate May day 2021. A major Portland human trafficking ring bust, inside restaurants shut down again, and this years Renaissance Faire canceled.

Breakfast out with Grayfox and friend and progress sorting out my old computer while my new one is fixed again............ Limited without access to most of my data, but limping through.
