we didn't pay pop-ups back then. damn you ethan.
Me in high school giving my computer aids after downloading music off limewire for my cracked screen iPod nano.
I had roommates with this issue.
Didn't even had a computer back then. I could code some BASIC that i learned at different friends who had computers. I myself was still on NES. 😐
That's how we learned. The hard way 🤣
