I just curl pages and render it all in my head. It's easy with my 10 Morbillion IQ

the only reasonable way to interact with the web is to write a shell script that mails the source to each page you try to view to the 2001 laptop you insist on using even in spite of freer modern options, I said, reaching for delicious foot skin to chew

@swlabr @dgerard curl? Coward. I wrote my own client using awk, head and date

@morrowind I created my own binaries by flipping the switches on the front of a PDP-11 though, I don't trust gcc, and neither should you

flipping the switches on the front of a PDP-11

lmao, look at this chud actually trusting random hardware. I only use custom designed, hand made (by me!) computers which I flip switches on to program. I also mine the materials myself, and went back in time to make make sure they were acceptable before being created in a star or something.
