#youtube I made an amazing discovery last night. Each of us probably has YouTube on our computer. To me, it is a neat tool to watch videos and learn how to do various things when I have to make repairs, etc. I discovered last night that there is a lot more to YouTube. Elena is a fan of very obscure foreign films sometimes going back decades. I watched an obscure Italian film from decades ago. They were not speaking Italian as we know it. The actors were speaking an obscure Italian dialect. Elena next found an Indian film from the late 1959s in Hindi with English subtitles.
Right there, I began to see that if one is patient and persistent, YouTube is a treasure trove with almost limitless possibilities. Please take the time to do some serious exploring. There are some wonderful surprises there.

My first computer i bought at discount auction. It was something akin to a Mac 5200 CD series with 500 Mb hard drive, 14 modem, and 8 Ram. That was in 1996. It was worth learning because I later set up my office in just a few days, including ethernet networking, printing, etc. with cheap macs (Filemaker Pro) a few years later.

It's funny the younger generation jumped into this before the older generation. I expect you got into it kicking and screaming, for me, being able to bounce around a square dot on a home version of pong was amazing.

My sister, the cunt, lied to me and said she was able to make the square "ball" spin. I spent like a week trying to duplicate it. What an asshole she was. I bet she has no recollection of that, but do.

I only really got one and learned because I knew I would need computers to make my office and my accounting/billing efficient when I got a business. Using the modem to get into AOL at the time was bog slow, but still fascinating as introduction to the internet.
