This wave feels like when AOL unleashed all its users on Usenet, except instead of turning everything to crap this seems like it's making things better.

AOL? Usenet? Might be dating myself there.

@redenigma How/where do you access it? I thought it all went to archive.

@tdotrob i had Gravity (they stopped support but it worked), & went through Eternal September. it's on my other laptop so i haven't tried getting on in about 6 months... there's not much left but trolls & spam though

@redenigma That was my impression last I visited, but that was at least a decade ago. The flood of ASCII-encoded software file trading there was what got me interested in ITSecurity back in the day. Ended up making a career out of it. So, thanks Usenet, for that at least.
