       Age verification, but you just have to say how much RAM sounds like an awful lot of RAM to you.

       @neilMy spectrum+ (with QL like keyboard) had more than enough. I thought. At the time.For the uninitiated, 48kB IIRC

       @neil Age verification, guesstimate how long it takes to download one gigabyte.

       @neil I can still remember programming in a mix of BASIC and Assembler (for a fruit machine simulation game) and splitting bytes into 8 1-bit status flags to save memory..

       @lanodan @neil tfw I finally (after decades) managed to achieve (have available for acceptable prices) downstream speeds which I've had access to on LAN for over 15 years...Now if you ask for upload lol... :gyate_reimu_cry:

       @lispi314 @neil Yeah upload rate I wouldn't even, ISPs are horrible at this even now that fiber is pretty ubiquitous.

       @lanodan @neil In places here that actually do get FTTH, they do get symmetric 1Gbps for a bit less than I'm paying right now.I'll be surprised if we get that here within 15 more years.

       @lispi314 @neil Heh here it's FTTH but symmetric is nearly pro-only and that comes at a much higher price (and for not much better service apparently).

       @lanodan @neil @lispi314 I pay like $43/mo for symmetrical Gigabit Fiber from AT&T. I also get HBO Max from them but I don't ever watch it I just let family watch it.

       @j @neil @lanodan That's both cheaper and better than what I get.That you get that from AT&T (their reputation transcends national lines) is just the cherry on top.

       @lanodan @neil depends on the protocol, but i feel like if you know about other protocol than http you’re old enough

       @xarvos @neil Age verification by connecting to IRC without using a webchat.Also I guess you're old enough if you know how a feature phone keypad works.
