RE: Amiga A600 + A Horrible Surprise

avatar

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I had a 1200 that got expanded to have a 68040 with 8MB, an external hard drive and a CD-ROM. I powered it all from a PC PSU that I re-wired. I really liked the Amiga, but the company collapsed. I remember it was owned by Escom for a while. Eventually I gave in and got my first Windows (98) PC. Later I dumped Windows for Linux that had a community that reminded me of the Amiga one in some ways.

I also had a 500 before that. It's all been sold long ago.

When it was time to go 16 bit my brother had just started working full time so he bought the Atari ST when it dropped in price. The Amiga 500 was still more expensive so nobody around us had one. Same reason everyone in my home town had speccy instead of C64, and we all used tapes instead of floppies! :)

Now I have a bunch of Amigas but I also have a couple of STs because they are still my first 16 bit love ;)

I got a 286 PC in 1992 I think, same time the A600 was announced. It was 12mhz and I chose the 40mb hard disk instead of a colour monitor because I wanted it for programming rather than games. That of course changed as the VGA+Sound Blaster PC become the dominant gaming platform :)

My first PC was a Pentium III 350MHz. Not sure what the disk was, but it had some Matrox graphics card and Yamaha sound card I think.

I had a summer job at Texas Instruments around 1984 and had a job of updating BIOS chips in their PCs to support drives bigger than 30MB. I had use of a 'portable' PC that had an early version of Windows. I've seen it all evolve, but my current PC is nothing special as I'm not a gamer.

I don't have the time or concentration for modern games, though I did try when my daughter got into them (xbox and switch etc). Last time I spent serious time on a game it was using DOSBox to play Warcraft II ;)

I played Half Life on my PC and that was about my last one apart from our Wii. Not really played with that for years, but revived it recently for Wii Fit. Games just eat time and I'd rather spend it on other things, such as music.

Hive Emergency: A Call to Action STOP THE BAD DOWNVOTES

We are facing a critical situation on the Hive blockchain, where a small group of individuals is exerting undue influence and control over the community. This group, comprised of a single "whale" and their associated accounts, is using their power to downvote good content, self-vote their own posts, and power down their tokens.

This behavior is having a devastating impact on our community, and it is essential that we take immediate action to address this issue. We propose two key solutions:

  • Implement a comment requirement for downvotes: This would ensure that users are aware of the reasons behind downvotes and can engage in informed discussions about the motivations behind these actions.
  • Reform our community to prioritize love and inclusivity: We must create a community where everyone can thrive, not just the chosen few. This can be achieved by promoting a culture of love, compassion, and respect.

We understand that some individuals may be concerned about the rules and moderators. However, it is essential to recognize that the rules are made by the same individuals who are farming the system. Therefore, it is time for us to take matters into our own hands and create a new, better Hive.

We invite you to share your thoughts, ideas, and concerns in the comments below. Together, we can work towards creating a more inclusive, compassionate community for all Hivers.

Your decision to keep your actions under wraps is a clear sign of your desperation, and it's not going to work. You thought you could keep your scamming activities hidden, but the truth has finally come to light. It's time for you to face the consequences of your actions and seek help. Being online will not solve your problems; in fact, it will only exacerbate them. Those who encourage your behavior are just as culpable as you are, and it's essential that they take responsibility for their actions as well.

We've even caught some top Hivers using their alt accounts to fund their own projects and manipulate the system. It is like they are playing a game of Hiveopoly, but instead of rolling dice, they are rolling out downvotes and taking money as they wish

The Bilpcoin team were attacked by Themarkymark gang so, we started investigating and gathering evidence, and before long, we had a whole list of scammers and abusers. And let me tell you, it was a doozy

Their attempts to intimidate and silence their critics are equally concerning. The use of downvotes as a means of censorship is a clear indication of their desperation to maintain their grip on the narrative. But it's not working

Bad downvotes on Hive are a growing concern that must be addressed. These downvotes not only discourage users from sharing their real thoughts and ideas but also damage the community as a whole, we see many walk away

We're disappointed to see that our work is still being downvoted despite the valuable insights and information we provide
