Thread: Is It Just Me ? Or is SRP painfully slow to load ?

I first started with AOL (training wheels) running Windows 95. I used to freak when this pop up would come up ........ thought they were coming to get me and I didn't DO anything

Hahaha....I started on Unix, still love it, "magic cookies" and all, used to have a dual boot system using DOS only and Linux..Mozilla was the browser, then Netscape blew everyone's mind, the IE came out, version 1.0, and a fellow project manager stood up from his pod, and proclaimed, "Microsoft will not be a player in the Internet", many agreed, myself and most others openly laughed at him...a year later we had t-shirts made with this on it and his name, 25 years later, he still has not lived this down.

Oh...and the Mac folks, accusing MS of stealing everything, they didn't like it when it was pointed out the Jobs stole most of his stuff from Xerox, who had the whole bag of gold, and didn't see it...the mouse, email, the GUI...still like Gates quote in talking with Jobs, "we both stole the TV set from the Xerox house, only you got there first."

Those were some fun times...now every 25 year old has a blog and is a web developer...sheesh...I had to learn GTML, then HTML, when it would change almost every week, and we used to use Notepad to code...remember pounding some sets of coding standards, no using authoring tools, no absolute paths in the code, only relative paths...was an awful lot of fun!

The illegal operation, or on one of my old computers, the Amiga, great machine, the Guru Meditation error, or always one of my favorites, someone's voice coming over your modem speaker, "click, click, click, Helllooooo...the phone's busted".

Also found out in the C64 and Vic20 days, the telco companies don't like it when you hop on their phone networks and pretend to be various type of operators, or pretend to be a pay phone...that wasn't fun when I was 15 years old....did you ever get the blue screen of death? And how many times did we do, and still do, the Vulcan salute, control, ALT, Delete!

Jimmy, that's probably your computer struggling under the load of loading 24,000 srp posts

that's easy to fix, he'll have the counter to 25000 in another minute or two

You might be right, Jimmy my friend. LOL

Stay safe.

Any time I hear about slow speeds or server issues bogging down activity, I think of this...

It's been my experience that SRP has been consistently crisp, clean, smooth and fast....very unlike my shaves

Yeah It's running like a Hamilton 950 for me this morning. The wheel that squeaks gets the grease ......

Yes! The forum just got a swift kick in the arse!
