I'm hooking two vhs players together to commit piracy old.

Older actually. My first portable music format was 8track

No, because my country was pretty much too small and poor to have brand-name sharpies, we just had felt pens with other names. Carioca I believe was the most prominent brand back then.

Record off the radio to cassette and an active market for pirated live shows because we lived past nowhere and it was all we had access to.

This isn't very old lol. That computer could be from 2010 and CD's and Sharpies were used then. Also, LimeWire was functional until like late 2010.

I still use CDs at work....

I'm pinball = arcade games old.

I can still sorta remember as a kid, sitting down at a chunky old Dell PC running Windows XP, while my dad inserted a CD for some Go Diago go computer game.

We still have that old computer. We tried to throw Linux on it to see if we could use it for something but I think it's truly beyond saving.

I'm this old.

I'm older.

Let's just leave it at that

Wrong Dell.

the computer isn't beige enough.

Kids, I played Leisure Suit Larry on a Macintosh II

Old enough to remember using a 3½” floppy disk to boot my first PC and mess around with GW/Q-BASIC and play DOS games.

The disks were strongly perfumed (I guess the guy I bought my pirated games from liked to do that for some reason), and I still remember that aroma.

Pre-home internet I remember running a line-in to my soundblaster card from a clock radio and recording Tool's Sober to my HDD.

The wav file took up a good chunk of the HDD. After a good amount of funking around with encoding it was barely comprehensible and still took up too much room. Was exciting and felt like a glimpse of the future.

Don’t hurt me like this.

My first pirated copy of windows was 3.1.

You don't know old until you've had to change the IRQ for your sound card because wolf3d.exe's settings were different than swotl.exe.

I am not old enough that I was doing this myself but I am old enough that I remember my dad doing it both for himself as well as for me so I could load music onto my mp3 player. My dad had a huge shelf of CDs. Some bought and some burnt

...I'm older.

...Oregon Trail older, motherfucker.

Limewire was the shit. But I'm so old I started with Napster

Im Not even 40. Leave me alone.

Naw. I'm this fucking old:

I'm this old:

Everytime I see limewire I feel left out.

Where are my Kaaza hommies at??

I'm exactly that old.

Edit: The PC in the image is a bit anachronistic. This is the workhorse we're all thinking of:

Don't talk about age... My back hurts and I remember booting dos to run win.com if you wanted windows. Most of the stuff ran fine directly from dos without the added shell.

🤣...
