@luke Nice! I have an EeePC R101 running as home server for Usenet, Media Streaming and Gnu Social.
-
@vinzv Nice set up! I needed a new laptop for home so this will do me fine.
-
@luke I upgraded the RAM to 2GB and it works really fine, would also do as some low home surfing machine.
-
@vinzv yeah I don't need high spec at all
-
@cmhobbs @vinzv there are a few very active newsgroups still but most of them are moderated. What killed usenet more than anything was spam
-
@cmhobbs @vinzv and forums etc. What usenet provided is available thru WWW now. alt.sysadmin.recovery is still going strong.
-
@cmhobbs it was usenet that first got me interested in using computers. The ability to interact with folks from all over was amazing.
-
@cmhobbs I thought Usenet collapsed because it got choked with spam even before #Google bought #DejaNews.
