@th3j35t3r use to use the TRS 80 in the student lounge till I got my Commodore 64. Dad had on of the first IBM PCs
@mhsheikh @th3j35t3r mom and dad bought us a TRS-80 COCO in 1980, I learned to program and never looked back...except now. The microcomputer and Internet revolutions held so much promise. Now, for the first time in my life, I'm thinking it has broken society. Not us as a species, we've always been broken in some ways. But social media in particular has brought out the worst in us. We have figured the ratio all wrong.
Thanks mom! And I'm glad you're not alive to see all this...😢

@hallmarc @th3j35t3r absolutely. It has allowed bad actors ti take over the narrative and use the first amendment as a weapon.
