Green on black is easy on the eyes. I used to rock an amber on black monitor on my ~~486/33~~ 486 DX 66 (I upgraded the CPU). It was full SCSI, coax networking, dial-up modem, and Red Hat (Halloween). The disc came with either a book or a magazine. It's been a minute.

I still have the machine in storage. Fully wrapped in cellophane.

EDIT: When I finally shut her down, her final uptime was a little over 2300 days. We were moving so down she went.

It's gendered the same way in my native language

Which language? In the languages I know, computer is masculine.

[-] addie@feddit.uk 3 points 9 months ago

Varies even within a language. El ordenador in Iberian Spanish, la computadora in Latin America.

in Italian, computer is masculine but GUI is feminine
