It is not the "parties" that need to be fought. It is human vice. People are the same everywhere. You cannot change a person. You can only change behaviour. Only "corrected behaviour" can in the future be fixed in generations on a subconscious level. "Consciously" maintaining "correct" behaviour is much more difficult, but there is nowhere to go without this stage...

I built my first computer in my kitchen in about '98, and I was immensely proud of it. It was a 166, overclocked up to 200...

That reminds me... I built my first computers in 1999, I worked part-time at a co-op as a "computer specialist". The members of the Komsomol from NTTM purchased components and concluded contracts with the state organizations for the supply of "software systems". The rise was 400%. I was the only person in the city who had a personal computer (which he brought from abroad) and who knew where to plug in the sockets :))

At the very least, I earned money for a second-hand Zhiguli.
 

It brings back memories, I see.

I built a Pisuk myself in about 2002, relatively late in the game.

First time I worked on a desktop my brother had built (386 33 MHz + 387 (sopr) + 8 (or 16) MB RAM + 100 MB HDD + colour monitor 14"), I think it was about 93. Cost about $1500. And it was not the fastest at the time. I think the first Pentium had just come out and it was really expensive. Now for such a price you can build a very fast and modern computer, on which you can both calculate and play games. And just imagine: that computer was at least 200 times slower than a modern average one...

At work, the first XT and EC1840 arrived in 1989. At home it was only in 1997. When I got out of debt from the factory

Nostalgia rules!
My first robotron with 8-bit CP/M and a 5.25 floppy disk instead of the hard drive appeared in 1987. My bosses locked it with a key so it wouldn't get broken.
At weekends I used to sneak in by arrangement with the janitor and study the built-in BASIC.

Strange, if memory serves me right, I had a personal Pentium-I in my uni dorm in 1996, I think it was 133Mhz, maybe in 1987 ?
 

When the first computers appeared, they seemed to me to be insanely expensive and unnecessary toys.

In '94, I bought a second-hand computer and fell in love with its capabilities. That's how it became my best friend.)

With great interest I took it apart and reassembled it. Quickly realised that it was easy. And then it began.

I kept plugging new gadgets into it. What a cool thing!

 

You don't have to think about how, what, what will happen. Do you have a conscience? Or not, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter:

Do what must be done and be what will be.

))) And then... we'll see. Or they will...

We're not in the best of minds,
We'll drive down the green mile
Thinking it's finally here! -
Turns out to be a bore... - With others.

Then my memory is wrong. In 1987 only XTs existed. The first Pentiums were around 1995
 
Went to vote. Cunning! Sign here, here and here (three times), signed, they give me four ballots. And for the fourth, the most interesting, you have to sign in another magazine. Whether everyone understands, that's the question.
