Cyberastrology: The theory that if you know the exact network conditions at the time someone first connected to the Internet, such as ping times to the major servers of the cyberzodiac, you can predict their future.
I don’t know the date, but I know the first website I saw, the dude who setup our dial up tested it by showing us his late 90s website about accordions. it was glorious.
I miss when the internet was genuine and weird and fun
back when it was about how cool you could make your website, or how many gifs you could fit on your page before it ruined it, something I don’t think anyone succeeded in.
And now you’re on the Fediverse. I’m thinking there’s something to this cyberastrology stuff…
Yeah, I learnt a few things about the internet that day, you could make your own website and there were awesome weird websites out there, then my grandpa taught me about piracy, those two things lead me here.
This sounds like a fun thought experiment. What are the cyberastrological signs?
“Oh, she’s such a typical Myspace”
“I can’t adult properly when AOL is in retrograde.”
“I’m a Lemmy with Linux in the fourth house”
Sure, but don’t forget to include the basics such as the root name servers: Verisign(A), USC-ISI, Cogent, U of Maryland, NASA Ames, ISC, Defence Information Systems Agency, US Army Research Lab, Netnod, Verisign(J), RIPE, ICANN, WIDE
Love this showerthought
I can narrow it down to the week, and first few websites.
