 I grew up in the matrix starting over 30 years ago

the matrix is real to me  
 I always will remember the AOL dial up sound 🎵 
 Long ago have been the days of me setting up my ppp connection to Prodigy on Slackware Linux.  
 ha... I still know my Prodigy username despite not having logged in for over 30 years 😝 
 Good on you, I was actually stumped remembering I connected over ppp let alone knowing my username…have to wipe some dust off the ole brain. 
 Part of 1 of my main passwords is from back then, probably prodigy  
 Run Slackware, you can run your own compiled kernel
