Can't find a decent screenshot of it. But Hippie97 was how I learned HTML 20 years ago. Wish I could go back to those days

But now it's all online streaming trash.

The internet is still great, in fact in terms of the technology it's the best its ever been since even a bad connection (like I have) is far better bandwidth than dial-up. But what is being rendered and posted is so junk that it still takes just as long.

oh my fucking god qmodem. I haven't seen that since I last used it.

Here's a pic I took of my old CD tower the last time I visited home. It has gone untouched since about 1998.

Qodem is releasing 1.0 soon.

I was making a point more about the intended method of data transfer rather than capability to save for later.
