  • Internet was mostly used for my people to find each other and do nerd shit. The rest were normies being trolls or casual people that just kind of stumbled through it. Corporations had websites but they were mostly just a one page description of the company and not really useful. Social media was basically chat rooms and message forums. Ads were mostly banners and maybe a few pop ups, sometimes a website would have so many pop ups that your computer would lock up. Search engines would bring up the wildest results. It was basically free and open and mostly unregulated, until Metallica attacked P2P (Napster) sharing and that’s about the time it started to fall apart and the glory days ended.

    The Internet was 95% shit posting.
















  • I don’t recall the names of the games, but I’ve played some that would not let you manually load auto saves. So even though the game was saved you could only load the last auto save by going back to last check point or from resume in the title screen. There have been times when I was stuck but the auto save or check point wouldn’t let me go back so I was forced to start the level/mission over.

    Also auto saves on some games don’t upload to cloud back ups or transfer to other systems but in most cases a manual save can be saved to a physical drive.

    Auto save is a nice cya feature but I need to be able to save it myself.
