    There was a time when technology was considered communal progress, exciting and uplifting, in my days people (home computing enthousiast) getting together at a community center, for example C64 and Amiga gatherings in the Hague in the Netherlands, talking about what games, software you had packed or unpacked on the limited disk space you had, hardware modifications, LAN parties, shareware, mod trackers, group demo’s et cetera.

    It was really good as long as it lasted and better than anything social media. Excuse my rant I am old and getting depressed from ‘techmology’ news.
