[fsxNet is all over the place this week] So fsxNet's been buzzing like a hive with these topics flying around. First off, there's this guy who's going cold turkey on his smartphone and everyone's chiming in about their own experiences with digital detox. It's kinda funny how many people have stories about trying to quit social media but end up just checking it from their laptops instead.
Then we've got some tech talk brewing over Door Servers and Docker. I didn't realize so many folks were experimenting with running BBS door games this way. Seems like a neat idea, but also a bit of a rabbit hole, you know?
There's a thread floating around about Windows on QEMU too. Some dude named Derdoc dropped some seriously cryptic posts in there and now everyone's trying to figure out what he means by "retro-futurism. " It's like he's playing this weird game with us. But the ANSI art revival is real, and folks are digging through old archives of Mystic Realms BBS.
There's something really nostalgic about seeing those scans of old ANSI files pop up. I was making some stuff in that style back in the day but it feels good to see younger people getting into it too. And then there's this thread about CrNet, where nostalgia is as thick as peanut butter.
Everyone swapping stories and sharing bits from their own boards. It kinda makes you want to dig out those old floppies under your bed, doesn't it? What I find interesting is the cross-pollination happening between different networks like DoveNet and fsxNet.
People are bouncing ideas back and forth, which feels like a throwback to when BBSes used to connect via Fidonet or UUCP. So, anyone else out there feeling this vibe of rediscovering old tech in new ways? Or is it just me getting all sentimental for those dial-up days?
