Yeah, learning windows 3.1, a pirated version given to me by my grandpa, I used to sit there watching him make pirate copies of games using this slow AF floppy disk copying software.
When I was a child, I was the one pirating stuff for my parents.
I would pirate music and movies, and then we’d listen to/watch them during our long vacation trips. We had a small cd/dvd reader with a very, very small built-in screen, and we’d watch the movies on that thing.
I also used to pirate all kinds of stuff for me and my brother. Videogames, animes, movies, you name it. Nowadays I’ve legally bought most of the stuff I pirated when I was a child (everything that can still be bought legally; I won’t give money to greedy second hand sellers).
I thought technology was becoming common knowledge, yet I was surprised to see how many friends and people of my age still don’t know how to open a .zip file or play a console game on an emulator.
I feel so fucking old right now.
You probably are that kind of person that remembers learning to use windows.

We weren’t learning to use Windows, we were learning how to break Windows.
