Biopic when?
>>81666135
He's still my only friend
>>81666135
Moot first.
>>81666135
Anyone ever check their myspace account recently? I haven't looked at mine in years. I wonder if it's still even up.
>>81666699
Who?
>>81666603
It was cool how he automatically became your friend.
Myspace at its peak was way better than Fakebook- those customizable themes were the best.
Easy to pick up chicks too there.
>>81667312
Yep- my old music page is still up. Still have 3k+ 'friends'. Zombies at this point I'm sure.
This has always bothered me:
Why did facebook become so popular over myspace, which had much more customization?
Why was Zuckerjew hailed as a pioneer? Didn't myspace come first?
What did facebook, especially the earlier iterations, have that myspace didn't?
>>81667916
Jewish ancestry
>>81667815
I miss the 00s.
They were horrible but better than now.
>>81667868
Did you have a cute emo fringe?
>>81667916
>which had much more customization?
Because every stupid girl on myspace filled their page with tens of megabytes of animated gifs, autoplaying mp3s causing the loading to chug and become unreadable. People aren't designers, much less 12 year old girls.
>>81666699
Shii deserves one more imo.
>>81667916
Myspace was fun and you could get creative. Fakebook is blander than bland. I don't understand it.
You would think with all the self-worship ppl do on Fakebook they would make the interface more comfy. Guess less money in it for Zuck then.
I wouldn't doubt that Zuck and his 'team' was behind the myspace buyout and then let it whither on the vine.
What is really hilarious is all the shit ppl talk about myspace. It was a freaking trailblazer- similar to 4chan where you could easily communicate and befriend ppl all over the globe. Now it's like "do I know you?"
>>81667312
they nuked the entire site, you can log on but you can't access your photos or do any customization. it's like a ghost town. I think they must have lost tons of money somehow because it's nothing but shitty music ads.
>>81668145
I never had a problem with the site loading slow. It didn't take up that much bandwidth- unlike now with Fakebooks auto playing videos of people's stupid kids. As a musician it was neat to see who embedded one of my songs. It added to the play counts as well. There was a feature that let you know. Made me feel good. Now I'm an anonymous old loser.

>I never had a problem with the site loading slow. It didn't take up that much bandwidth
It wasn't about bandwidth, it was about the site becoming unreadable with giant flashing fonts, animated backgrounds and whatever teeny bopper song was popular at the time. Don't even bother arguing, you weren't there.
Facebook fixed the mess myspace was by letting people communicate more clearly, and that's about it.
>>81668737
Yes I wasn't there.I'm the guy who posted Who?
>>81668737
This.
Every other faggot posting ITT was never around for Myspace in its prime. It was a fucking mess. Letting every scene chick and nigger customize their profile was a mistake.
I hate the idea of Facebook, but it allowed clear communication and a clean, streamlined experience, and that's why it succeeded
>>81667916
there were facebook like sites before myspace
>>81667916
How big even is Facebook anymore? Obviously still gigantic but I wonder if it's something that's even going to persist into the 2030s and beyond.
>>81669891
>Letting every scene chick and nigger customize their profile was a mistake
heh.
>All those women wanting to hook up
>those bedazzled photos
>dat angle that tricks you into thinking a girl is hot
>>81668206
People just got lazier, Facebook is so popular because it's all about the reconnecting, updating everyday about your life, etc. I suppose they just didn't see a point in needing a layout you can edit, a playlist, flash games on your page when people just want to look at what you're up to. That and going in to the 2010's a lot of websites picked up this "sleek, minimalist design."
>>81669891
Thanks for the info Zuck
>>81670019
facebook has become an old person thing at this point.
>>81668737
All social media sites are about one thing and one thing only. Getting da prime pussy.
Once you understand this you will understand everything.
Facebook became popular because you had to be in college to sign up at first. That limited the pussy to prime college pussy. MySpace was lost to emos and faggots while the real pussy went on facebook.
Instagram is the same now, it's where all the girls post shit of themselves. Snapchat also became popular because teens could send naked pics of themselves. All social media sites are about teen sex and "hot" girls. Wherever the pussy is, the site becomes popular.

Looks like it is controlled by Facebook Corp now.
im convinced tom saved all the absolutely cringy shit everyone did on myspace and is going to blackmail people with it someday. Somewhere in some dark dusty closet is a hard drive with all the failed messages I sent to girls from school. Fuck me those were bad.
>>81670305
Nah people from all demographics still use it apart from millennial uber normies, even then I'm sure a few of those people log in every once in awhile
>>81667241
does that guy have a source on that claim?
>>81670718
At least you gave it a shot and actually sent msgs instead of losers today who just stalk and beat off to pics on her FB profile.
You could actually meet girls in person during the early days of myspace. What a different world it was.
I always wondered why it says my name on the board behind him

>>81670847
It's abnormal, but you're among friends
>>81671096
Instagram and snapchat are already the new hotness
>>81666135
The site is current and promoting the usual stuff. Wonder what the game plan is?
tfw searching for sluts in my area like the ole days...
>>81671136
Those don't let you rant about your important political views though
>>81670847
I fap to anime characters I liked ten years ago does that count.
>>81671136
Funny because just a few weeks ago I heard a coworker say "people still use that?" in regards to Snapchat
so pretty much I don't trust anyone's views except the numbers on what social media platforms are still popular. "hip" is another thing
>>81671136
"new hotness"
You meant going stale bread?
That's why I think myspace is laying in the wings, waiting for a correction... everything old becomes cool again.
>>81670847
Chicks love any and all attention. Maybe she wants you back. Get her back and put her on a diet dude.
>>81671268
Lots of old farts are flooding on facebook like family members. Basically today the kids can't rant about their mundane lives without a family member intervening.
>>81671206
Good. That's why I bailed on Fakebook. Plus the memes are weak. Firefighter cousin posts firefighter memes day after day. We get it bud, you are a freaking hero.
I miss emo boys.teenage boys in general are awesome
Is there a way to recover these old profiles?

Still playing around with my old page. The search feature is freaking lovely.

It's my very own time capsule. Thank you based Tom
>>81671268
Snapchat and insta are currently popular for young kids and college students. I couldn't see anyone above the age of 27 enjoying snapchat because nobody is sending them nudes but it's still extremely popular, even more so now that Vine is dead.
>>81671740
Looks like there's still some hot, available honeys in my area.

>>81667916
Remember when Facebook was only for college kids? It was garbage then, but I can't believe how shitty it is now.
>>81673531
I still vividly remember watching the news story of that on a TV in a Subway.
>>81670371
Close. Twitter kicks ass for the potential to connect with the big leagues. One time TMZ was glitching, the intro was mute for the first 10 seconds or so. Sent a twat to Charles. He was super concerned, asked for details via private msg. Next day problem fixed.

>>81667916
Because Myspace was full of viruses, browser hijacks and some of the worst ads I've ever seen by the end.
Not to mention any page looked like a fucking horrible mix between a LJ and Geocities page at any given moment.
Everyone forgets now, but facebook, for years, had no ads at all. The uniformity made people understand what was on everyone pages and it was hands down, the easiest way to talk to other people and see their photos because there was no bullshit in the way of that.
MySpace dug its own grave.

Yep. He is an alleged part owner.
>>81667916
I recall Facebook had a "not cool", "only my parents use FB" kind of stigma. But with the rise of mobile those kids grew up and they had kids, so it's the "normal" thing I guess.

>why did MySpace get replaced by Facebook when MySpace was sooo cooool
Because the average person doesn't actually enjoy HTML customization, and Facebook heavily encouraged using your real name. MySpace was a fun place to meet online acquaintances, but Facebook was related to your actual social standing. It blew up because people wanted to show their IRL friends how much of a social butterfly they were.
Looking back I haven't made internet friends in a long time
Myspace sucked, but it was at least funny, Facebook is just boring.
>>81672692
Man, whatever happened to this guy?

You're probably right, but that doesn't mean the 2010s isn't a shit decade, just that things might get even worse.
The whole 21st century is turning out to be a disaster, but the early years of it were comparatively fine.
>>81674945
I'm not saying it wasn't a good way to get pussy, just as an actual website it sucked.

See you then in Dream World duplicate me.
http://www.simulation-argument.com/simulation.html
This paper argues that at least one of the following propositions is true: (1) the human species is very likely to go extinct before reaching a “posthuman” stage; (2) any posthuman civilization is extremely unlikely to run a significant number of simulations of their evolutionary history (or variations thereof); (3) we are almost certainly living in a computer simulation. It follows that the belief that there is a significant chance that we will one day become posthumans who run ancestor-simulations is false, unless we are currently living in a simulation. A number of other consequences of this result are also discussed.
>>81678205
I. INTRODUCTION
Many works of science fiction as well as some forecasts by serious technologists and futurologists predict that enormous amounts of computing power will be available in the future. Let us suppose for a moment that these predictions are correct. One thing that later generations might do with their super-powerful computers is run detailed simulations of their forebears or of people like their forebears. Because their computers would be so powerful, they could run a great many such simulations. Suppose that these simulated people are conscious (as they would be if the simulations were sufficiently fine-grained and if a certain quite widely accepted position in the philosophy of mind is correct). Then it could be the case that the vast majority of minds like ours do not belong to the original race but rather to people simulated by the advanced descendants of an original race. It is then possible to argue that, if this were the case, we would be rational to think that we are likely among the simulated minds rather than among the original biological ones. Therefore, if we don’t think that we are currently living in a computer simulation, we are not entitled to believe that we will have descendants who will run lots of such simulations of their forebears. That is the basic idea. The rest of this paper will spell it out more carefully.

the 'feed' to be honest. Myspace was your profile. Then you had friends you could go to their profile and see what they were doing.
Facebook allowed you to, while staying on your own profile, check blurbs of your friends. Giving and getting little instant gratification likes.
Simple really.
