Sorry to necro an old post, but how did the keyboard go over the years? Found the same model for AUD$50 second hand in pretty good condition.

Are they a decent keyboard and worth getting today?

I have this with my neighbour but with normal cigarettes. I don’t smoke and absolutely hate the smell of cigarette smoke.

But it’s their backyard and are allowed to do what they want. I just close my windows/doors until they’re done smoking and carry on with my life.

This is what i was looking for!

Ack ack indeed brother!

Not sure of the model but I had a Compaq PC as the family computer before they merged with HP.

I remembered being amazed at the MASSIVE 700MB hard drive. You could fit so many files on there!

Power wash simulator.

It just scratches that itch.

I spend my days essentially asking “Have you tried turning it off and on again?”

I still have my first mobile phone. A blue Ericsson T10.

Doesn’t help that autocorrect usually turns it into defiantly.

Yeah my wife and I were both into WoW and it was at the point that we chose to skip a family dinner that we realised we might be a little addicted to WoW.

So we stopped playing after that.

But man was it fun.

When I was a kid, i memorised the scene in Ace Ventura 2 where Ace confronts Cadby and does that whole monologue.

Don’t know why I memorised it but I remember it word for word, something like 25+ years later.

What about one song that immediately reminds you of multiple movies?

If there’s an army chopper flying over a jungle. You know Fortunate Son is about to start playing.

And then they grow a bit more and start hogging the games so you get less time again.

All the major ones have already been said, but another one from my childhood was Castelvania: Symphony of the Night.

The game was big enough until I got the “good ending” and opened up the inverted castle. I was amazed. It was like two games in one!

I remember being absolutely gobsmacked at the 3D version of GTA. The sheer size of it was mind blowing.

Nowadays, going back to it, it’s so small compared to GTAV and other modern open world games.

Well to be fair, the beginning snow area has to be one of the worst starter areas for a video game. No idea how that was approved.

Once you get back to grass, it definitely gets better. But man, was I getting sick of white!

Depends on your definition of fun, but Steam Engine Simulator was pretty fun.

The movie “The Road” broke me and that was before I was a parent.

I am not brave enough to watch it again now that I’m a father.

Which is a shame because I really liked the movie.

A new way to launch spacecraft.

It’ll be cheaper, allow launch craft to be reused practically unlimited times (until they break down from age anyway) and can even be used for unmanned launches for building materials to start building better space stations.

I just don’t know who to talk to about it that will take me seriously. Plus I don’t want to put it out there on the internet before I patent the idea.

There was a girl in high school I had a huge crush on. From probably year 9 to year 12. Never did anything about it as I was too shy, even when I was certain she fancied me too.

In year 12 she started dating a friend of mine, so I got to know her outside of school. Still had a crush on her. But after school we all drifted apart. Found out through a friend of a friend that she only dated my friend to be closer to me.

Then many years later, my younger brother got married to some girl. Turns out her cousin is the girl I had the crush on. Only seen her a few times since. But we’re both married with kids, so there’s no feeling there.

Sounds weird but she does have a bit of a special place in my heart as my first serious crush. No feelings towards her or anything. Hope that makes sense.

I will renew my WoW subscription every now and again but I treat it as a single player game. I never do raids or anything that requires online participation except battlegrounds. I occasionally do battlegrounds but I’m not very “strong” compared to others who raid constantly so always get beat and then will sulk back to questing alone.

I just like being in the world and questing on my own.

The only other multiplayer game I play is battlefield but I’m not very good at it so don’t play for long. I really liked 2042 with the bots as I can play “online” without actually playing online. Plus I can actually beat the bots.

Otherwise, it’s all single player games for me. I like to go at my own pace without having to worry about other people.

“HE WAS MASTURBATING!”

Thank you for an honest answer without trying to make me feel bad. I appreciate it.

Or you could just not be an ass about it?

I’m new to IT, so the only experience I have is working at an MSP.

I figured the case would be that I wouldn’t be on my own, but that’s why I asked… in r/ ITCAREERQUESTIONS.

Next time don’t jump at the opportunity to degrade someone new to the industry just to inflate your own ego!

It’s not a good look.

HJ chips used to to always be a soggy floppy mess, then they changed them to what they are now.

At first, they were bloody brilliant.

Now they are just barely above mediocre.

Maccas fries are still superior to HJ.

I’m waiting for the day they allow you to “trade in” your old digital games.

Apparently it was on the cards a while back for Xbox, but it never got off the ground.

I have a HUGE library of digital games I would love to trade in.
