What the hell is Usenet, and how can I use it?

It's like the deep web for old farts and you have to pay for it.

All the ancient neckbeards are hoarding their 35mm scanned prints of star wars on there.

You only have to pay if you are retarded. I mean it's Usenet. Even AOL and WebTV users used to manage to use it without paying extra for it.

what is it? a distributed message board system. its what we used before the www. lookup nntp and inn if you want the tech.

use? look up usenet newsreaders. hint: trn is god tier.

access? you need access to a news server, there are companies you can pay who will provide that.
