    You were also an enjoyer of the clickbaity “money tree” back in the day? Each pixel was a link to something (it was ads, it was entirely ads), but you might could win $10,000 or so it claimed.

    Also I was using a 14.4 modem well after 56k and dsl/broadband were introduced and available to everyday consumers. Every webpage took a few minutes to load in for me in those days. It wasn’t until a bit after 2003 that I finally caught up with the times… it’s kind of amazing to think that my ping was manageable in Aliens vs Predator 2, and the first Call of Duty.
