  • I don’t feel like they’re the poster child for enshittification; I still use Facebook the same as I did in 2006. It got worse, true, but it’s not enshittification worse. It’s worse because every cunt with a phone can get on from their phones. I don’t feel it’s enshittification as there’s no fees and it still serves the same basic function of keeping in touch with friends/family and uploading photos. How do you feel it was enshittified?

    If they were charging for photo storage or a certain number of friends, or fees for business pages, I’d agree. I don’t see monitization or the ruthless pursuit of profit as the main force behind why Facebook sucks these days.

    Overclocking via jumpers was intense. That first boot could let out the magic smoke if you had the orientation of the half dozen jumpers flipped.

    K6-2 300MHz to 400MHz was my first PC build. 64MB of RAM and a Voodoo2 8MB. I was 12 years old, a stack of Boot PC magazines was my build guide.

    The reason I built that PC? I fucked up a BIOS flash on my IBM Aptiva and the local guys couldn’t figure it out. Shitty BIOS led me to a lifetime of building PCs.
