Subject: Discord
Greetings folks
The past few years I?ve become fairly focused on a particular old
1999/2000 ww2 fps computer game. Of course playing it but I?m also on the
development team for the game (EA has given up on it, but we still put out
new releases, maps, patches, etc.). As a result of that, I pretty much
live
on Discord text/audio chat these days. If you send me
an email I will
eventually see it and may even respond heh. But if you send me anything on
Discord I?m going to see it immediately. If any of you are on discord, I
am
?Todesengel#9624?. Feel free to add me as a friend and
that way you can
get
me usually immediately. I am not leaving the hobby,
nor am I saying not to
email me at the usual address. But a lot of you do talk to me
semi-frequently and I?m just saying discord will get to me far quicker.
In addition, mostly as an exercise to see how to do it, I set up a
ClassicCMP discord server. That Discord server is NOT meant to replace
this
list, nor should it be taken to signal any less
commitment on my part to
keeping this list running. They are fundamentally different things;
Discord
is great for real time text chat back and forth. There
are also audio and
video channels if people want to use that to talk verbally or via video.
To
get on that server, here is a semi-permanent invite:
https://discord.gg/U8Skw5g Joining the server gets you to all the other
folks who may join the classiccmp discord, not just me. Of course, that
could be zero ? Like I said, I just did it as an exercise, and discord is
how some of my family and friends stay in touch. But it is there if peeps
want to use it.
I?d rather not turn this into a long debate of whether discord is good or
bad or anything like that. I?m just saying it?s there, and it?s quicker to
get ahold of me that way at times.
Best,
J

There used to also be something called a Hong Kong Whore House, similarly
staffed
with young Asian women, but they didn?t make core planes there.
I've been to HK and I was never aware of this! Thank you for the
clarification. :-D

I hope that you mean 'hardware porn', not
'hardcore porn'... :)
Trivia: for a while in the mid-to-late 1990s, a Google search for "computer
porn" had as the number one result one of my web pages, of that title,
containing images of computers with covers removed. I could see from the
server log that the search was fairly popular, but nevertheless I believe
that most of the people doing the search were not satisfied with the result.
