What’s one word to prove you lived trough the 90’s?

Ya, but it proves I lived through the 90's 😆

As a European, that’s indeed how I interpreted this.

Baaaahhh!!!

Even better just use Firefox it descended from Netscape Navigator.

Add to that, flying toasters

Jwz! He was like nerd Jesus to us 90s computer geeks

yep. that's the correct spelling for that sound

Physical challenge.

I started school in 2006 and I can still remember this being a thing

Tyler was definitely a product of the times

Baud rate is the maximum number of transitions per second of the state of a transmission medium. Hz is the actual number of cycles per second, so it varies degending on the data transmitted. Bitrate is the number of bits transmitted per second.

Usually bits are transmitted in groups with some redundancy to allow errors to be corrected. E.g. early Ethernet used 8b/10b encoding; 8 bits of data were transmitted as a 10 bit "symbol".

With a 1b/1b encoding baud rate would equal bit rate, but in practice that was essentially never used so the numbers woud diverge. Bitrate is more meaningful to the user.

SI and binary prefixes can be applied to baud, so kilobaud is certainly a word.

It may have been misused at some point, but "baud" was a word long before the internet, and I distinctly remember my modem at the time using the word baud on the box. I was just a teenager, so I'm sure I was missing key information. It was used, tho.

Here, this is proving us both right:

If your modem-to-modem connection is at 14400 bps, it's going to be sending 6 bits per signal transition (or symbol) at 2400 baud. A speed of 28800 bps is obtained by 3200 baud at 9 bits/baud. When people misuse the word baud, they may mean the modem speed (such as 33.6k).

Kilobaud is definitely a word that means a thing. Baud is a literal unit of measure that uses the metric prefixes.

It's not a gas for appearance there, tho. It's to show you aren't stashing a shank in it.

Your first sentence made me literally laugh audibly. At work.

Our computer lab when I was in high school was all those eMacs. I hated them and their single mouse button.

I definitely deleted the system drive from half of them at one point or another. It wasn’t hard, either, it was on the desktop.

Sure it didn’t actually delete anything on the drive, but it did force an intensive repair (they reformatted all of them, idk if there was another fix) :)

i've got a clear ps4 controller. it's pretty cool.

The effect stopped working after a few washes, plus, if you broke a sweat your pits would glow like you were bleeding Gatorade.

Still rad.

I was thinking the t-shirts/clothing

I like it very much. But I wonder if it will ever be suitable as a daily driver.

Oeh, guilty pleasure here! I still have it in my playlist and listen to it quite often :)
