minus-squarecatshit_dogfart@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoHeck I remember when you had to read “bleep bloops”. POST codes came in beeps, and that’s how you knew why the computer wouldn’t start. Sometimes I miss em, wish it gave those in addition to the modern indicators. Then I could just tell without even looking.
