How to send an 'E mail' | Database | Retro Computers | Early E mail | 1980s Technology | 1984

Is this satire?

Fred and Rose looking well here.

What i have in the freezer

His personal password doesn't seem very secure.

This is amazing

Apologies if anyone has already been able to do this and has posted before me. For anyone interested the data transmission at the end is the following: 1st screen: "THAMES TELEVISION DATABASE COMPETITION Send solutions on a postcard only to: Database THAMES TV 149 TOTTENHAM COURT ROAD LONDON W1P 9LL PRESS SPACE BAR TO CONTINUE". 2nd screen: "DATABASE COMPETITION". In the form of a simple crossword. Here are the clues: 1 Across. Arresting pop group 6 letters. 2 Down. _ to me only 5 letters. 3 Across. Four star transport 6 letters. 4 Down Underwater computer language? 5 letters"

That all it is. I just connected my original BBC micro computers cassette input to my MacBook Pro earphone socket and typed "*TAPE" & then "LOAD "" " the filename is THAMES and it's a small BASIC program just needed to be run. Worked first time. Amazing!

Old boy has it in for Jane.

I remember the first emails a huge advance at a time when a phone call to distant country by could cost $50 analog lines were so ineffiIcent

Outbox > Sending...

Back when you had to make up your own connection noises 😂

PAUL'S CHRISTIANITY MADE WORLD MUCH WORSE SHAME ON PAUL SHAME ON YOU

SHE LOOKS SO HOT

Shows you how slowly the tech was developed initially. My Dad worked for IBM but we didn’t have a family PC until about 1989-90 and didn’t have internet until 1995.

I can't wait for this to come out.

his password is 1234

I like how his password is clearly just 1234

They also have the most advance video call ahead of its time by 30 years

"extremely simple"

SHIT COMPUTER CAN'T EVEN RUN GTA 6

we seem to have a case of autism don't we

my personal 1234 password :D

“Extremely simple” — now that’s fucking funny

Funny how they call all that "very simple"... 🤣😂🤣

remember playing online games in the late 90's getting upgraded to a 28.8 Modem from a 14.4 was super fast! but as the internet grew websites always put more bandwidth hungry things on it, even today they do the same thing some websites have too much adverts on them and they can crash your pc

the most advanced ahead of its time thing I saw was that her doctor took a prescription refill over the network and then replied to her that it had been called in and at what time. For 1984, that is actually science-fiction insane stuff.

This will never take off 😐

Just think.. out there someone was hollering at their tvs "this is devil magic! Ill take no part in the future!" 😂 my uncle was like that. He wouldnt even sit in the same room with a computer.

I had no idea! though Al Gore invented this shit lol

80е , а уже тогда можно было поставить " темную тему " интерфейса :-)

his password was 1234

What are they doing now?

His password was 1234 😂😂😂

"Yeah Extremely SIMPLE "

The downfall of humanity was the internet.

Such a beautiful outro theme 🥹

"so it's a very simple connection to make?"
"extremely simple"

proceeds to use a rotary phone to call a number, enters a password, waits for the entire screen to load pixel line by pixel

2023 here bro this guy would be flabbergasted how "SIMPLE" in his words it is to send an email today

Now i know where Computernerd comes from
