  • Woah, core memory unlocked! As kids, we put DSL on business card shaped DVDRWs and kept them in our wallets. We could take them to the library and boot into DSL, bypassing the software security.

    At the time, libraries had outrageously fast internet compared to home. I would plug in my ORB drive and write as much Napster to the tape drive as I could (2.2GB @ 5-8MB/second). I’m sure everyone there had the worst connections because of me.

    Great memory for me, thanks! 🙏
