Retro style, part 7 – retro gaming
Post originally meant to be posted in December of 2017, but I hadn’t finished writing it. It’s finally published, didn’t take long, did it? Moving on…
Oh god! Didn’t it end in the unnumbered post (#6) after Retro style, part 5?
Well, it did, but I decided to milk the cow a little bit more.
Toward the end of my 3 months without a decent computer, I started getting tired of listening to audio books. (in fact, I haven’t listened to another one since)
So I had to look for alternative entertainment. All I could do on my 2nd PC was listen to audio files (music/audio-books) and read text (plain text).

So, my travel into 80s geek LARPing has come to an end last month.
Finally, was getting tired of listening to audio books.

Retro style, part 5 – more books
Part 5, will it be the final one?
I wonder.
I’m afraid I’m starting to enjoy LARPing as a 1980s nerd.
The lack of the dumbening warmth of flashing images (or at least a severe reduction of them) clears your mind.
I had already dropped TV some 10 years ago, but then jumped into the dumbening warmth of the computer. (in part that’s what weaned me off the tv)
And now without the computer (let’s be honest, without moving pictures the computer is boring as all hell)
But yeah, under penalty of sounding like a soft cunt, it’s actually been good mentally.

Retro style, part 4 – Still on books
The last one should have been short, it wasn’t.
As if I wasn’t verbose enough already, listening to all of these books is making me even worse.
I need to go back to the dumbening warmth of flashing images, I’m starting to think that for society to move to a healthy paradigm we need to get rid of the nice flashing images as they atrophy your brain.
Hell, I need to return to the flashing pictures quickly or next I’ll start calling Ted Kaczynski “Uncle Ted”. (perhaps I already do in secret)
Let me break this talk before I actually start talking seriously about my feelings on the cute flashing images.

Jurassic Smartphone – Android torrenting Apps
So, here’s the next instalment in my series of adventures LARPing as a 80s nerd.
Sorry bro, I need to see pictures of things (mostly big breasted midgets, of course :lol: ), the command line doesn’t cut it.
So I sometimes use my smartphone.

Retro Style, part 2 – books
Still haven’t decided what to do about my main computer.
Plan B of buying an old Atom itx board to use as a Linux LAN server/temporary shitposting machine is still a possibility.
