Nobody had personal computers when I was ten.

Not even a RadioShack TRS-80?

[-] eleitl@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Not even an Altair 8800, at least in my country.

Living in a university town with a much older, tech-savvy brother meant I first used the internet in 1990 at the age of 13. I used the internet before pretty much anyone I know other than my brother, but I was on MU*s and Usenet like it was home and then I discovered IRC...

I'm not saying I was smart, just lucky. In fact, I was pretty stupid about the internet. I remember seeing an early website in 1993 maybe and saying something like, "it's cool, but it will never replace Gopher."

That's an impressive level of early adopting :-)

Gopher was brought back to life later
