Seeing you were on dialup, how board where you on dec 31, 1999?

Me, I was up watching the systems work great, missing all the cool parties guzzling caffeine for 3 days. But it made managers happy for me to be there. If I tried that now, I would end up in the grave.

It was more like in 2001 and there wasn't broadband yet in my country. I was a teenager so no caffeine needed to go over night. In fact I can still just stay awake just fine if I am distracted with some game or watching something.

By the way I got hit by a considerable electric shock from that. By that time I had no idea phones carried enough tension to actually shock me.
