ok
>the same 20 shit beige pcs that they didn't even take the picture of, it's someone else's, these pics never change because it is deprecated garbage
>"I found this next one in a fucking dumpster because someone THREW IT OUT."
>pretending to be from the 80s when in fact you are some 90s kid, nothing wrong with that except that in this case you are the EXACT thing they hate so you are pretending to hate yourself
>muh usenet amiga bbs sekrit club, muh september
>special kind of retard where you are so out of the loop that you only remember hating 70s "dinosaurs" and "90s kids" and conveniently have no opinion on 60s or 00s+ shits
>"emulators are bad because they are too good, you have to drop $2k on hipster ebay sales in order to jerk off"
>not going to >>>/vr/ because you can't pretend to show off your copied internet hipster cred because everyone else is doing that there too so you have to stay on /g/ to try to hope other people will come in the thread so you can call them a 90s kid, just like /mlp/ can't go on /mlp/ because they can't pretend to like it there and have to infect every other board with their faux exhibitionism
Did I hit enough major luddite anti-points?

Why are you so angry
>>51846118
Because every single luddite thread is 100% the same to the letter and it literally does NOTHING, that's spelled N-O-T-H-I-N-G besides make you incompatible with everyone that isn't in your made up age group ladder. I used to have to work with people like this and it was fucking impossible because they have this dumb typewriter syndrome where they won't let old tech go and think you don't know shit because you don't know random parts of 30, 40, 50 year old garbage.
What's my response to this? besides being honest and saying well that doesn't matter anymore and hasn't for over 40 years because no business in the world uses it anymore. Then all the other old fucks in the room do their gay shitty little nod like I somehow can't help them even though they've called me out. Old people are disgusting and 30 year olds pretending to be old people are worse.

Yo, I think it's a combination of nostalgia and that '80s and '90s computer stuff did a better job stoking the fun hacker mindset. Sure we have Raspis and stuff nowadays, but you used to be able to write games in assembly on an Atari and stuff like that. That's way cooler than making your Arduino output a reddit RSS feed on your fedora headband while it cooks bacon in the other room.

At first I thought you were just trying to be a master baiter everytime you shitposted in these threads, since we're probably some of the most easily baited on /g/ next to smartphone and graphics card fankeks.
But holy kek, I think you're actually legitimately this autistic.
>>51845959
>>51846247
You people are the reason that /g/ is so fucking awful today.
>>51845646
When computers were designed by engineers, everything was beige and nobody though about having designers design them. (Except Atari, what lovely design)
I was only a child in the 80s though and my only tech was a NES in 1989

Oh yes! Our nostalgia is way cooler than their nostalgia. Now hold on a minute, I'm looking into my crystal ball... hmm... for some reason, I'm reading that the same thing will be said about this current generation when they grow up about the next one. Why is it, oh now why is it that every generation always just happens to think that their particular decade is the best? Why is it never that any other generation is the best?
That's because nostalgia is a total fucking lie.

I shit on these threads in the same way that old people never let you in, and never let you say anything, and just say you don't get it or whatever psuedo reason that only works when there's other old fucks in the room. I tried to be nice, I really did, I even tried to pretend to care and get into their old bullshit, but at the end they are always going to judge you by your face and if you don't meet their abstract requirements of what is "old enough", you might as well pack up and go home. If anyone's autistic, it's them. It's hilarious to see them bleat on about "being mature" yet they can't accept anything outside their dumb little quantum nostalgia bullshit range wherein they have to have it be old yet have to have something working and there is nothing that can fulfil these requirements. That's again, why nostalgia only causes you to be incompatible with everyone.

>/g/ sucks because it's just the same smartphone threads
>let's have the same psuedo nostalgia thread instead with the same 10 pictures
At least the smartphones change once in a while~

As always, and just like all the old losers I have to deal with, there are no arguments here, or EVER, besides "you are too young, you wouldn't get it", without saying what that actually means. Anyway, mission accomplished, and thread ruined. See you next circlejerk.

Just make it run DOOM you fagget.

this desu
the obnoxious "look at me I'm a maker" hipster culture surrounding sbcs is annoying enough, but I get more enjoyment out of cheaply buying old high-end 'real' computers and fucking around with them, making them useful again
hey guys, check this out. it's called a 'portable computer'. it's like a regular computer, only in a briefcase! only cost me 2 grand. I can't wait to load this into my car and then ask my coworkers to help me carry it into the office tomorrow.
