While I'm from the generation that grew up playing with that first GameBoy, I also can't allow myself to rage, because I'f you had asked me at age 10 if I liked the toys from 20 years earlier (with the exception of wooden building blocks, Lincoln Logs and the sort) I would probably say that shit was boring as hell. I definitely felt that way about old TV shows. Howdy Doody could have kissed my ass a child. You young one may need to google Howdy Doody, but you get my point. Off to play some more vidya. Enjoy life...

No? Then I don't care.

I grew up with the Gameboy. I didn't know nothing about NES or stuff like that. I occasionally saw a SNES but didn't much worry about that. N64 was my console.
Now that I'm 24, I start to dig up the gaming past and learn and appreciate older consoles like NES because there interest me. I would never expect little children of today to know that I grew up gaming with a Gameboy when I was child. That is so fucked up. Only autists would expect that kind of audacity from little children. Yall should be embarrassed of yourselves! If you teach your children about old consoles and gaming devices that's fine and cool, but don't expect the majority of children to know about these things.

>> No.2660689

Eh, everyone knows by now these shows are just about the kids making funny faces and whatnot. For any kind of actually interesting comments from them, we have to wait for them to grow another 10-20 years so they can start to form their own opinions.

>>2660483
I would love a dot matrix to go with retro computer. Just haven't seen any in recent years.

Actually the last printer I bought was a black & white HP Deskjet 500 in mid 90's. Pretty nice workhorse printer that lasted me many years. Eventually replaced it with some lame "all in one" inkjet that are common these days, and overcomplicated junk that are hard to find Unix drivers for. That thing was a PITA to setup and use, and some of the functions didn't work at all (but it was a free hardware someone gave me when they upgraded, so whatever). I also had a big office laser postscript printer that was nice, but sucked up tons of power, and sometimes the pages didn't feed correctly.

Overall I was much happier with the design and just dead simple parallel port interface of the old faithful dot matrix printer. They were easy to fix too, if something mechanical went wrong.

I had the flippin' CD version!

It didn't run because EMM386 had the NOEMS tag set up and DOTT required an EMS frame for its audio. Remove the NOEMS line and it worked.

They don't have to know what you did 20 years ago. They discover this unknown world because they are kids. You'll probably blame kids that don't know how to use a CD or how to plug a USB stick in the computer in 20 years.
It's not late to discover them old technology, though.
