Omg, this is the best early-morning laugh that I've had in a long time. Mac-nerd, here. From childhood. Also a Linux nerd for servers. This is so great that I immediately sent it to friends in tech. I'm still laughing like a nut.

My first usage of tech was my parents Apple 2E. So I don't know what that means... It wasn't Windows or Mac (the 2E is pre Macintosh).

"When I was a kid the computer didn't need some filthy OS!!"

ZX81 - C64 - Amiga (that wasn't an OS, it was just for launching stuff! /s ) gang

What about TRS-DOS?

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 6 points 3 months ago

I started on Commodore (Vic20 that I don't remember much, C64, and A500) mostly with a tiny bit of Atari and then was on Windows at home for decades (I tried installing Linux (Mandrake and Redhat) back when it fit on a floppy, but without a lot of success). I guess I'm too old and not neurotypical enough?

A home-built (from a set) one-board computer counts as what?

Fun. I didn't grow up issuing a Mac, not did I grow up using Windows.... Nor Linux.

When I started on computers, we used DOS.

I'm old.

I'm not old enough to remember punch cards, I was solidly in the x86 generation, but still.

For the record, I do IT support now. I'm the one that helps you with your printer.
