And now the PS5 doesn't even have a(n easily accessible) web browser.
Kept getting exploited to hack consoles because Sony sucks at using hypervisors (although I'm anti-DRM, so...).
XBone and Xbox Series still haven't been hacked, outside of a barely used escillation bug in devmode since MS uses hypervisors for everything, which essentially sandboxes everything into their own VMs.

! Core memory restored !
Porn was by far the best thing I ended up using my PSP for. It wasn't advertised for that purpose (luckily), but I'm sure a large portion of younger owners found out that was the true purpose of the device.
I mean, boobs are pretty great, but have you tried Renegade Squadron?
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker also, but at least Metal Gear knew the true superiority of the device was boobs.
I have watched porn in 128x160.
I watched porn on the hustler I found in the woods
Pshh that’s nothing, I had to wait for the steamboat to arrive and keep an eye out for any ankle while harlots descended down the ramp.
pixelated nipples glittering in the dark off near the Tannhäuser Gate...
I have ejaculated whole waiting for a naked woman loaded line by line.
It was picpost.com after my parents went to bed. 640x480 jpgs that you got to see line by line. And if you could find a postage stamp video filmed on a potato, it was maybe 10 seconds and you put that on repeat until you finished.
I used to have some JPGs stored on Zip disks lol
I have used.. my imagination, and it was harder than you might think.
I used to be able to remember about a dozen phone numbers, now I barely remember mine.
I still remember my parents mobile numbers from 2008.
I do not know their current numbers.
I remember my friends phone numbers from the 80's, and I have no idea what their numbers are now. Like I don't even know a single digit in their new numbers. I've never even seen the numbers. We tapped our phones together, and I magically had their contact card.
Ah, fond memories of tying up the house phone line all weekend for a 48 hour non-stop Starcraft marathon over AOL, getting pings on battle.net that were embarrassing then but are probably considered warcrimes today.
I played Descent against my friend by dialing into his computer directly. Worked amazingly well considering the specs of the machines. We had a rule that if he got disconnected because his mom picked up the phone we'd have to restart the match.
(I was already so chronically online by that time my parents had sprung for a second phone line.)
It's amazing any real-time gaming worked with all that latency.
I routinely played Quake 2 with 200-300ms ping. I had to abandon hitscan weapons entirely, relying on rockets and grenades to do any damage. I never dominated any pub matches, but I usually wasn't dead last either. Anyway, forcing that much latency on gamers nowadays is disallowed under multiple UN sanctions.
I remember my friends and I would all be in a waiting room to load a command and conquer map when we played online.
While waiting for everything to lead there was a progress bar so you could see how far along you and your friends loading bars were.
One friends dad as in IT and got high speed internet before the rest of us.
It blew my mind to see his loading bars zoom to complete almost instantly.
lost my virginity in a AOL chatroom

16/f/ca u?
For some reason my brain read this in the exact way that Humpty said "I once got busy in a burger king bathroom."
Ooh this is a real one, I lost my cybervirginity in a IRC chat before I even cared about losing my IRL one. In fact I was a bit late on that one (19 y/o)
I once ran up a $300 AOL bill. Back when they charged by the hour.
I rang up over a thousand dollars in charges for using a number outside of my local exchange, which was at the time considered long distance (same area code). I had spent a couple days camping out in an IRC channel.
Ah yes when "local long distance" plans were an unfortunate thing.
I guess it tracks that the type of person who would beat their son over an internet bill would also beat their dog. Some people have no business having kids or pets.
Right? What a horrifying metaphor
I remember putting stuff infront of the router to hide the internet LED when i played Maple Story and told my dad that all those others are NPCs
When I was twelve I was able to forward AIM to my SMS. Backs when texts where 11¢ a piece... $350 that month.
$350 back then is probably like $550 or more now… goddamn
My favorite Boomer porn stories.
One kid paid for a copy of Playboy with seventy five pennies he'd saved up.
Military kids knew when 'snap' inspections would be carried out. They'd warn the troops, who would hide their porn and beer in the woods. Then the kids would search out the stashes and abscond.
Getting in trouble for calling long distance...
Oh man. I have a nostalgia for old cellphones like the Nokia or flip phones, but not the cell plans. There was initially no internet, but when it showed up it was super limited data. Limited texts. Limited minutes. But you could get free texts and calls after a certain time of day, like 5 or 6 in the evening. Plans were expensive. If you went over your allotment of texts it was a ridiculous fee like 25¢ or 50¢ a text. Same for call minutes. You were constantly clock and usage watching. I got one bill for almost $500. Ouch.
My little brother ran up an $80 texting bill and I wanted to beat him like a dog, but I didn't.
Man, of only Wet Ass Pussy existed back in those days, I feel like actually finding porn on a .WAP site would have been incredibly easy.
I had a Razr myself; after having a Sidekick. Going back to that shitty mobile web browsing experience fucking sucked. Even if you managed to find boobs on it, they're gonna be low resolution and lack a lot of color.
Unless the dude means the smartphone remake of the Razr? Or he used the OG even after the iPhone came out? He said he racked up a data bill but, like... They didn't have "data" service back then. They had talk and text. Maybe 3 or 4 phones even had real internet stuff for power users, and it was slow as fuck because you're using the incredibly slow cell network.
it was quantumlink (aol's predecessor, for the c64) chat rooms for me. dad was long gone by then. qlink was linked to my own bank account, so i felt it in a different way. for 'porn' the most accessible thing was a simple hack for c64 strip poker so they started out nekked.
Did you happen to watch Halt and Catch Fire?
It was clear that Mutiny was Quantum Link.
