Nice. I remember discovering ROMs via torrents in middle school and feeling like an absolute chad playing any game I wanted anytime.

I miss the ZSNES days.
remember xbox 1.0 modchips?
Yes, I had one. I was quite involved in the softmod scene too, making how-to guides and software packs to make it easy for others. I modded ~400 OG Xbox myself, didn't work a real job for a year or two thanks to the money earned 😅
Always learning new fun shit about your Ryan. Neat.
At $200 a pop it kept the bills paid 😗👌
It's also why I initially learned about Linux. Some tools needed it, and you could turn an Xbox into a capable file server for media.
In 2002 my house had a central server to store torrents, and you could watch them on any TV in the house through XBMC on modded Xboxes. I was already living in the future.
I put team xecuter chips in 4 xbox's
i was one of the early users of xbmc kodi, halo 1 via xbconnect, halo 2 was leaked to the scene before it came out
good days
I wish I had nostr as a kid
It was called IRC back then.
What is that?
Internet Relay Chat
Idk what that is either lol
Something with more users than Nostr 😂
mIRC was awesome.
Still is! nostr:nprofile1qqs8eseg5zxak2hal8umuaa7laxgxjyll9uhyxp86c522shn9gj8crspz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgjwaehxw309ahx7um5wgerztnrdakj7qgkwaehxw309a3x2an09ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5hsvlnggv has an IRC server running with Nostr identity login.
That emulator was sick
I remember finding roms too and going back to beat super mario world for the first time haha I was just always paranoid about getting in trouble for it like I was on limewire 😂
