    I remember getting my first 10MB hard drive, c. the 80s. I remember holding it in my hands and marveling at how I could put ten million bytes in this little enclosure and just… carry it around, if I so chose. Not that I was inclined to; that thing was heavy.

    Eventually, after the drive failed, I took it apart and pinched the absolute fuck out of my finger between the two neodymium magnets. Blood was spilled.

    Computers used to be fun. They still are, but they used to be too.
