It's like "I have a windows computer, I install software on it and use the software. Why would I need more than 1?" Turns into "ooohhh, computers are great. All the things I can run and host. Software isn't just a gui".

It's like learning to love computers again

GUI? What’s a GUI?

It's the thing you run when your Parallel Processing Card is not doing anything and you go - "might as well"

Curses? What's is curses? /s

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

ASCII? What’s that? /me thumps stack of punch cards on table

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Punch cards? What are that? /me grapping my abacus to add up 2 numbers.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Abacus? What is that?

/me grabbing my dedicated pile of stones so I can throw one into ground for each individual sheep I see to make sure I didn't lose any as counting wasn't invented yet

Dedicated pile of stones? Why is that?

/me carved tally marks on a cave wall. And slashing tallies on bones. I will call it tally sticks!
