my first download

for me, it’s the tifa campfire titfuck video

People still can’t name torrents worth a fuck even today. Some groups do it kind of okay like qxr but I still have to rename everything I download before it goes into a collection. The worst is when some idiot puts a bunch of garbage in the metadata for like a music artist’s discography.

Why isn't there more discussion of lost media from Limewire/similar programs? There's so little left over from the early Internet. Pre-Youtube video was a whole different thing, tons of people didn't even know you could watch video online and people barely gave a shit about archiving anything. It's like how most silent films are lost. There had to have been so much weird shit online that is gone forever now.

I always got that adult film where the cheerleader has sex with the dark complexioned gentleman in the locker room. I'll always remember her saying "I've been waiting for this all day." I was too young to have intentionally sought out that particular subgenre of pornography.

>>211665199
The problem with lost media is that it's lost, so relatively few people will have seen it, fewer still remember it, and only a fraction of those people will be present in one place to actually discuss it.

I remember downloading a King of The Hill "radio play" (audio only) back in the day. There was clearly a lot of actors involved and some effort put into it, I remember the person playing Peggy was pretty spot on. it was long too, like 40 minutes. I wonder sometimes: how many people remember this, and does it even exist anywhere anymore?

>>211668326

I stopped playing wow a bit into pandaria after starting mid cata (and hadn't actually reached pandaria yet) because my files got all messed up and it was too much to re-download, I had lost my wrath CDs (and everything after that didn't have data on the disc, or maybe it was Burning Crusade I lost and everything after that wasn't on disc)
I actually did try go back to WoW recently but I was just too disgusted by the level scaling

In my case it was less speed more data caps though, massive fees for my parents if I had gone over.

>>211666301
Until around 2005 or so a large segment of the population operated under the misapprehension that the internet was this niche nerd thing that wouldn't ever cross over into recognition in the "real world." I suspect that this is the same reason why the late 1990s and early 2000s had some many chicks get into internet porn, so a few scenes, and then disappear forever - they probably freaked out the first time someone recognized them in public.

Frankly both P2P and DC options are niche boomer activities. The kids are streaming off some 123movies type site. Not sure what they do for music but I know they hate files (they can barely navigate a file system) so I’m sure it’s some russian streaming shit as well. Or maybe just Youtube with adblock? Or maybe they all leech off a family paypig alternative like Spotify?
I dunno. I try to stay away from kids ever since Limewire made me a pedo. Thanks a lot.

If you know how to search the wayback machine there's a whole fuckton of stuff you can still locate. It's out there somewhere. Hard drives are filled with things "lost" to the rest of us. I've heard if you get into certain groups on the darkweb there are like 10X the available torrents. Just really selective people who don't want to share with everyone or risk other stuff they have. That may not be true though.

Reminds me of when I was playing video games and error messages kept popping up trying to talk to me but I kept closing them and suddenly my game quit and the error messages told me to open note pad and start typing on it and I did. Some hacker randomly targeted our comp. Afaik they didn't do anything and we had nothing on there worth stealing. He did stuff like make the cd tray open and close and made the computer play songs on that weird built in midi hardware computers used to have. It was really cool, I felt like Neo getting contacted by Morpheus. In retrospect I should've tried to learn from him and got into tech. Probably would've found out about Bitcoin and other shit when it was still pennies.

For the price of one of those games you can get a handheld with 20,000 games loaded on it. About half are console games up to 5th generation and the other half are handhelds from all eras.
You can even dink with the settings and make the display look like the primitive handhelds for authenticity.

Anyone remember Goplay? It was like a better version of Geocities that gave you more space and bandwidth, but it didn't last as long - looking at the internet archive it looks like it died in early 2001.

Good memories of using it to make my first website in 1998. I also remember using Geocities, Beseen, Homestead, Maxpages (underrated) and Tripod (which I think might still exist) to make websites in the late 90s/early 00s, back before Myspace ushered in the modern era of social media faggotry.

Also in looking up Goplay on the Wayback machine I noticed their logo (top left of pic) contains those pizzagate symbols and I don't know if that shit existed back then or this is retrocausality or what but its freaking me out.
