Ask Lemmy

I was at this concert:

I still shoot film and I still have a record player.

First smart phone was an iPhone 5S.

Guess my age?

I started using computers on windows 10 (I am now a proud Kubuntu user)

I'm almost a full year older than the NES, but almost a year younger than the Famicom.

I was alive when the when there were more than 8 elevens.

Vic-20, Atari 600 XL, zx-81.

In that order

I remember watching the Berlin Wall coming down on the news. I don't remember the Challenger explosion (edit: though I was alive for it, to be clear). I was out on my own during 9/11, worried as hell about being drafted. Whether or not I am gen-x depends upon which of the dates for its end you choose.

When I'd get to kindergarten too early, the teacher let us watch some cable tv. It was usually showing the original xmen cartoon.

My childhood is having Carameldansen be a popular meme, and then having that promptly taken away.

EDIT: I also witnessed the birth and the death of "Vine".

My first 7" single was Slade-Far far away

You could only get B&W Tvs at the store.

I was sixteen days old when the world ended and we were all thrown back into the stone age.

I saw this on Tumblr and thought of this thread. 😃

I tried to make a portal to Aether.

I owned computers before this, but I remember buying my first PC, a 286, at a flea market for $20 with a coffee can full of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters.
