I don’t miss dial-up internet, I just don’t. I don’t even like the sound because it’s just digital screeches and it’s a sound that makes me cringe a little upon hearing it. Because I remember the times when I’d be listening to music with headphones with volume high and then that fucking digital screech just blares into my ears.
I don’t miss waiting 30 minutes to load a page. I don’t miss a bit of it.
I have an old cassatte player (mid-90s) that is capable of recognizing the tracks, if there is a gap of at least 2 seconds between them. When going fast forward it stops at the beginning of the following track. Also it is equipped with an auto-reverse feature: when reaching the end of side A it automatically switches to side B, without having to eject, flip and insert the cassette manually.
